These were both problems in design. The insight was a two seater which had limited usefulness and the Accord was mated to a 6 cyl, producing only 6mpg more than the available 4 cyl. The accord hybrid only came in the top of the line pkg, around $30k, and only ever accounted for 1.4% of all accords sold...Meanwhile the hybrid camry account for 14%. The camry was mated to a 4 cyl and was rated at 40mpg, 10 more mpg than the accord.
