CEO of Honda Motor Corp. Takanobu Ito had expressed disappointment at the Insight hybrid car sales performance. Honda also is currently preparing new hybrid of jazz-based but has the same components with the Insight.
Jazz, this hybrid some time ago had caught the camera being tested by Honda.
Like the Japanese daily Nikkei reported, and told Reuters on Thursday (24/06/2010), which is a combination gas-electric hybrid Insight Jazz and it will be released for 1.5 million yen (approximately USD 150 million with an exchange rate of 1 yen = USD 100.4 ) in Japan.
This means that the price is 400 000 yen cheaper than the Insight, but more expensive 200 000 yen from the Jazz or the Fit.
The new car can go up to 30 km per liter, slightly increased from the most efficient fuel consumption for the Jazz that is 25 km per liter.
This new hybrid course will increasingly create competitive polar hybrid cars in Japan increased. In addition to Honda, Toyota also reportedly will issue a new hybrid in the year ahead
