Newer Hybrids often offer designs that are exactly the same as gas-powered versions.
When the Honda Insight first arrived on the market, it was clear that the car’s primary purpose was to achieve excellent fuel economy, and utility was a distant second. The Insight featured skirts on the rear wheels for improved aerodynamics, but only offered seating for two and a limited amount of cargo space. Less unusual was the first-generation Toyota Prius, with its small sedan styling and seating for five. But for shoppers looking for a hybrid, the Insight and the Prius were only the choices. Today, however, the number of choices is growing, and now includes the Honda Accord Hybrid, the Ford Escape Hybrid SUV, and the first luxury hybrid, the Lexus RX 400h. Many more from a broad range of manufacturers, from Chevrolet to Mercedes-Benz, are also on their way to consumers. Except for very subtle differences, including badges and in some cases the wheels, there is no distinguishing a hybrid from a non-hybrid model.
