Honda's New Dedicated Hybrid Might be Called 'Insight'
Friday afternoon, time for the rumor-mill. Auto Observer has been reporting that Honda might revive the 'Insight' name for its upcoming dedicated hybrid model. After all, there is no negativity associated with that name - the first Insight hybrid was just a bit ahead of its time (back in the days of $20-30 barrels of oil), and a bit too quirky for mainstream tastes.
Possible Launch Dates for Honda's New Hybrid
More rumors claim that Honda will unveil this new 'Insight' at the Paris Auto Show in early October, or maybe at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, and then it will launch it officially at the Detroit Auto Show in January. We'll have to wait and see if the rumors turn out to be accurate.
