Insight Concept of Honda at Paris 2008
October 21st, 2008
Honda will renew the Insight name, but this most recent model will be more practical than the original two-seat Insight.
The proposal is to make this a true challenger for the Toyota Prius. It’s an appropriate small family-sized five-door, five-seater, with cabin space uncompromised by its battery pack, which is put on underneath the boot.
The new, protuberant-bodied Insight looks a lot like Honda’s FCX Clarity fuel cell car, and even though it’s not much of a looker it does have one very alluring selling point – it’s going to be priced ‘extensively lower than any other hybrid car on the market,’ says Honda, which hopes to sell 200,000 a year.
