12.05.2009 Insight Becomes First Hybrid Vehicle to Rank as Best-Selling Vehicle* in Japan Honda has announced that Insight ranked as the industry's best-selling car among new vehicle registrations* in Japan for the month of April 2009, with sales of 10,481 units (source: Japan Automobile Dealers Association). It is the first time in history that a hybrid model has become the industry's best selling vehicle in Japan for any monthly sales period.
The Honda Fit (known as the Jazz in Europe) was the industry's best-selling car among new vehicle registrations in Japan for calendar year 2008 and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. Fit was also the industry's best-selling car for the month of March 2009, for the fourth consecutive month since December 2008, until it was displaced by Insight to become the industry's second best-selling car in April 2009. It is the first time Honda has occupied the industry's top two best-selling car positions.
Since its introduction on February 6, 2009, the all-new Insight has been very well received by a wide range of customers due to its excellent environmental performance, easy-to-use packaging, light and comfortable driving and affordable pricing.
