Honda Fit Hybrid Will be the Cheapest Hybrid by Far

If this is true, the new Fit Hybrid really would become the hybrid for the rest of us (unlike the Insight).

Reuters has a report out of Japan putting the new Honda Fit Hybrid at 1.5 million yen ($16,570). That's 400,000 yen less than the Insight and only 200,000 yen more than the Fit.

That sort of pricing is exactly what people had hoped for when Honda said the Insight was going to be the hybrid for everyone. And it's exactly what most people hope for when they see a truly small hybrid car appear on the market.
