supersquirrelHonda is killing its EVs — and any chance of competing in the future | TechCrunch
Honda always markets themselves as being innovative, but they’re a huge disappointment in this regard.
They haven’t innovated in years (decades?). When was the last time they released a good car outside their core competency? I feel like after the new NSX failed they really stopped taking any risks.
The original two door insight was pretty innovative. That’s the last car they put any real design effort into. 50 to 70 mpg.
Back in the 80s/90s they shipped a whole suite of great cars built on the civic platform. Wish they would bring those back. Especially the Del Sol. A small EV civic line up would make a great comeback car.
The 99 Insight was only two seats and most dealers wouldnt even sell you one, it was a compliance car.
