Default Living with a Honda Hybrid


A video by Honda UK. That's one thing I like Honda's hybrid car, it's just a normal car.

That's a cool video, but I'll never like that Insight with the tucked in rear tires lol...

Kinda hard to watch the Izuzu guy sitting here driving along in his CR-Z with his sunroof, and talking about all the cool things the UK version has that we don't get in the US market

great video tho!

and when they will bring it over I will be in brig trouble because the sunroof is the most missed thing.... so maybe a "car exchange" will have to be done at that time most likely with substantial $$$$ loss

We get US spec cars because of our US spec expectations. A euro model with all the cool stuff would be 33K+. Most US consumers will not pay that much for small cars. The US mindset is "Why pay 33k for this 2 seat little thing, when I can move up to the next model for the same price?" To keep things proportional to expectations, we get crap compared to everyone else. You see that with ALL makes.
