When they make them the same price as an equivalent gas guzzler, Then I will buy one. The Chevy Volt is another good example of overpriced crap. $40K for a sub compact car that has a range of 40 miles..? Come on... Get real.

The Priu.....I mean Insight is supposed to start under 20K.
The Fit starts at 14.5.

If the Honda Priu...I mean Insight is in the same class as the Prius then the Honda Priu...I mean Insight is in a different class (larger...car. Interior Volume close to a Camry vs a Fit...which can be "tight" for some.



I hate hybrids with the best of em but they are good for the performance metric they are designed for. Interior volume of a large car with the fuel economy of wee mobile.
