Honda Jazz Hybrid review - Auto Express
If Honda's pricing strategy for the introduction of the hybrid Honda Fit in Japan is any indication, then the compact gas-electric car will soon be the most affordable hybrid in America.
Tokyo Shimbun and Mainichi Shimbun newspaper this week reported that Honda plans to sell the Fit hybrid for around 18,600 That's about 3,500 less than the Honda Insight, currently the cheapest hybrid, and about 4,600 more than the gasoline price Fit for the Japanese market does not move in line with US prices, but a similar strategy in the United States would place the base MSRP about 17,000 hybrid Honda Fit is expected in 2011 Honda Fit hybrid to launch the Fair Auto Paris this fall.
Japanese subsidies for fuel-efficient cars helped make the Toyota Prius the best selling car in the last 15 months Some grants are planned for the end of next month, a move forcing hybrid manufacturers to compete more aggressively on the prices.
In the US the premium cost for Hybrid has been a major obstacle to move hybrids in traditional hybrids represent about 2 5 percent of the new car market Honda has tried to market the hybrid Honda Insight as an affordable hybrid redesigned for the masses, but -Look-alike Prius is slightly cheaper than the Prius, while offering less space and less mpg hybrid coupe Honda CR-Z, which goes on sale this fall, fall short of the same on its promise to combine fuel economy and sportiness at a competitive price.

Everyone in both plug-ins in our days there is no comment on it.
Nevertheless, it is a great new Honda Fit, although very little air outside is very spacious inside the passenger volume 90 cfs 8 is much larger than Honda Insight 85 cu ft and is very close Prius 93 7 cu Although Honda Fit cargo space probably will be significantly smaller than the Prius Thus Honda Fit hybrid will be much closer to the Prius Insight size but much less expansive 17000 vs 22800 I think should be able to have significant sales volume as 10,000 per month in the United States.
The problem with the plug-ins is that many people like me live in apartments We can not just run extension cords in the parking lot to load our hybrid cars gasoline-electric are the only way to go practice.
Yelp, this little clip certainly proved my point a car that is not a total fossil fuel vehicle and affordable to the common ground looks like it belongs in a circus with clowns crawling out of it Have you seen these two clowns standing side of the Fit, which is anything but fit and attractive If there is something that can discourage you from buying a car, there is ugliness.

I rarely agree with JamesDavis like, but in this case I must.
This trade me totally off the Jazz Fit remember the old commercials where the Ford Festiva hatchback went up and come down super-fast makes it look like the car was making fun of himself.
Or maybe I just feel a bit low, thanks to bodybuilders.
Loosening have should be allowed a protein Not everyone lives in California can not afford everyone a Prius hybrid entry-affordable by all.
