Default Honda hybrid makes Primus look like a 56 Chevy

* should read Toyota Prius not Primus.

Small Hybrid Sport Concept is their interpretation of what the next Insight might take shape as.
The SHSC was designed around a front-drive platform powered by a Honda Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) gas-electric hybrid system with a CVT transmission. Despite cool features like what looks like an very aero-efficient body, rear view cameras negating actual mirrors, and skinny165/60 tires, odd proportions and an unsophisticated design execution make the Honda concept look dated despite a supposed expression of future technologies.

A hydrogen car you'll be able to buy
We've already seen Honda's fuel cell FCX Concept as a non-running prototype at car show's here in North America. But here in Geneva, the FCX makes its debut a fully functional vehicle you can actually drive.

agreed...however ugly the design, one thing still remains and that is that cars are eventually going to be environmentally friendly..i have no disagreements about that because it is about time that cars become more economical and less wasteful...eventually it'll give the gas and oil companies a run for their money when cars become primarily electrical...
