Love it! I hope they have moved IMA long ahead of what Audi is showing in the A1 Sportsback.

it looks good, my guess is the new prius, 3rd gen., and the new honda insight, will look pretty much the same... from the spyshot they're hard to distunguish....

At last a really good looking hybrid ... I'm not sure about the full LED headlamp design for the full production model, something similar to the mix Audi use could be an improvement ... I want one already.

A lot better looking than the Prius while conveying the same message of "I'm different". And because it's a Honda, there is a good chance it will drive a hell of a lot better than the Prius. Let's hope anyway.

A really good looking Hybrid? Pshaw. Not "finally" at all. The Chevy Volt is still top notch in terms of looks.

Nice...! much nicer than the Prius. Honda seems to have a degree of talent that appears to be lacking from Toyota.

I say build it as is. Sure the LED headlights and similar concept car glitz will have to go, but I don't see why anything else should change... especially the interior. It's really nice inside. Keep the price around $20k or less and they'll have a certified hit on their hands.

A nice car for sure. I love cars with good fuel-economy. Although the Civic Hybrid is much nicer, this is certainly a welcome addition as a step-down from it. Praise be to Honda for pursuing this technology seriously.

Let me first say I DO NOT LIKE HYBRIDS - I see them as a way to avoid doing the hard work of elimiating fossil fuel from the equation altogether. That said I am impressed with the fact that while this car is a Prius copy, it is so well executed that it manages to make the Prius look like the one trying too hard. I would have liked Honda to go with a sedan design, but with the Civic I guess this makes sense. The only bits I am not a fan of are the wheels, too flowery, and the backlight, with the spoiler in the middle, it earns its name when it comes to reward visibility. What might also be cool is to see this in a coupe form, which I think is on its way. PS - I still think a smart diesel running on veg oil is a better move for the environment, since it makes fossil fuels obsolete.

1. Hybrid tech paves the way for full-electric tech. 2. Bio diesel is not and never will be sustainable. 3. You're entitled to your opinion on the rest.
