Though the 2009 Insight is Honda's latest hybrid, it looks suspiciously like the Toyota Prius.It's not hard to understand why. The Prius has been a massive hit for Toyota in sales and image greenification. It's won car of the year awards in Japan, Europe, and North America, as well as our own COTY award back in 2004.
