LEARN MORE ABOUT THE 2010 HONDA HYBRID: www.edmunds.com It's been in the works ever since the Honda Insight went out of production in 2006, but this is the first time the 2010 Honda Hybrid Sedan has been caught out in the open. Designed as a direct competitor to the forthcoming 2010 Toyota Prius, this new Honda hybrid sedan is expected to debut early next year. The styling is intended to mimic Honda's FCX Clarity, a hydrogen-powered sedan that Honda began leasing to the public this summer. The Clarity fuel-cell vehicle is closer in size to Honda's Accord sedan while this hybrid will fall somewhere between the Accord and the smaller Civic. More important, this new hybrid sedan is expected to cost less than the Civic sedan. In a press conference earlier this year, Honda CEO Takeo Fukui told reporters that although the company's Prius fighter won't have next-generation lithium-ion batteries, the batteries it will use are lighter and more powerful than the current nickel-metal hydride variety. John Mendel, executive vice president of American Honda, added, "These new advancements in Honda's technology and production systems will result in cost reductions that will allow us to make hybrid technology available to a whole new generation of buyers." In other words, even if the new 2010 Honda Hybrid is seen as nothing more than a Prius knockoff, it could still do well in the marketplace based on its rock-bottom price alone. Add in the fact that it could realistically get 45-50 mpg ...

it’s not top secret at all. it’s not even new. It’s a friggin honda insight =/
I’m running a honda jazz at the moment and thinking to have it upgraded but with that hybrid car…no fuckin way….I won’t take that fuckin ugly car even just for free!… lol…
I don’t think that ugly ass car has a chance. Want to clear out a previous model… introduce that turd.
about 1 min i was trying to figure out if that car is so ugly or is covered up
It’s a test run on actual road conditions…Honda has to cover it up (even the logos) and distort the car in some way since it is not for sale yet… Check out how they were not able to cover up very well the Honda City in India, it can ruin sales if it leaks causing high inventory for previous model…
Wow can they make it look any uglier, I took a shit yesterday that looked nicer than that.
THIS IS A BUNCH OF BULL SPIT!!!
It kinda reminds me of a prius….
ya!!!!
its the insight
very nice car
Diesel varries, it can go up and it can go down, 2 years ago it was 20 cents cheaper last year it was 10 cents more expensive, this year it was bouncing up and down between 10 cents cheaper and 5 cents more expensive. Its still worth it if you calculate it
True . . . . diesel is cheaper by about a dime now. I don’t know if it will last.
Not Hybrid’s are slow.

Well if you look outside, here up in Vancouver, Canada, after 6 months, Diesel has once again become cheaper then gasoline, so diesel wins again
It’s true, he is on meth.
I sold it to him!
ive got one word for you unfuckingbelievable
Yes . . . . 4-5 yrs ago diesel was a bargain, but no more.
unfortunately, diesel is far more expensive than 87 in the west coast
its almost a buck more expensive.
I had a Jetta TDI that would do that and had a *lot* more power than a hybrid.
oh please dont get pissed off.
the 2nd generation came out in 2004. honda will launch their new hybrid in 2010, that’s 6 years apart. so as we said F for originality
sure, we’ll let you know.
lol
