Honda described the white car which it showed off for the first
time in Paris as a concept version of the production model that
will be unveiled in January. Honda Motor (HMC) CEO Takeo Fukui says the gasoline-electric Insight will hit the world market early next year. The plan is to sell 200,000 annually worldwide, half of them in North America. Insight's expected to start about $20,000. The Toyota Prius starts at about $23,000. The small, five-passenger hatchback is named after Honda's original Insight hybrid — a radical two-seater that went on sale in the U.S. in December 1999, the first time a major automaker sold a gasoline-electric hybrid in America. Toyota followed about six months later with the Prius. That two-seat Insight has been discontinued.

So it was a surprise to see the Japanese auto maker jump the gun with pictures and selective tidbits about the Honda Insight hybrid-electric car it will put on sale next April and show tomorrow at the Paris Auto Show. Now the five-passenger hatchback Honda will show in Paris is officially a concept. Ignore that. Honda types say the production Insight will be almost identical to the concept. It is unusual for Honda to tout a car that won't go on sale for months, to leak details, share pictures and the like. Honda is doing this to steal Toyota's thunder. Toyota, of course, is the world leader at selling hybrids. Honda has never liked that, not... // Globe and Mail |
