First sight of Insight – the new Honda hybrid

Scheduled to arrive in the UK in Spring 2009, Honda has released the first photograph of its new hybrid – the Insight. The new five-door, five seater will be presented to the world at the Detroit Motor Show in January.
Honda plans to follow this with a new family of hybrids including a Honda Jazz version. The popularity of Honda and the increasing trend towards hybrids will make the new models attractive for car leasing.

Fuel Cell Honda Clarity promises a new motoring generation

Its taken 19 years to develop but the first Honda advanced hydrogen fuel cell car has rolled off the company’s Japanese production line and clearly marks a major change towards cleaner motoring.
The FCX Clarity will emit nothing more than water from its exhaust pipe because its fuel cell stack simultaneously generates electricity and water – with no Co2 or other harmful emissions. Only 70 cars a year will be produced for the first 3 years and these will be leased out as part of an evaluation period for around £290 per month. Actress Jamie Lee Curtis is one of the early adopters.
Although full-scale production is a medium term objective for Honda, the company is focusing short-term on more affordable hybrid models – a certainty for the car leasing market
