Honda has sold a million hybrid vehicles in the 13 years since the launch of the first generation Insight in Japan, writes Brian Byrne.
The company currently sells eight hybrid models across 50 countries, three of these models in Europe.
The company's Integrated Motor Assist system incorporates internal combustion and electric motor in one unit. It plans to launch 2- and 3-motor systems for mid-size and AWD sport cars, the latter which will be available in the new NSX to be sold in Europe.
