The overall shape of this new Honda, you could argue is a complete rip off of the Toyota Prius. That may not be a bad thing, for Honda at least. Here are a couple spy shots of the Honda doing some extreme weather testing in the deserts of the south west. Honda would argue that it is more of a relative of their FCX Clarity Hyrdrogen.
Regarless of the look, this thing is sure to get some great gas-mileage if it is supposed to be a better competitor to the Prius. Look for MPG ratings we would peg around 48-55 MPG! Exciting news for Honda as more and more people are convinced Hybrids are the way to go.
Look for this car on showroom floors in late 2009.
