Insight Goes Where?

By Katherine Helmetag

After the drapes were pulled off the new Honda Insight, it had to be moved to its final position on the show floor for public days. I overheard two Cobo workers saying that apparently the giant “H” on the steering wheel wasn’t enough information for the driver, who decided it belonged in the Toyota booth. It doesn’t look that much like the Prius, dude.

Uh, guess there’s no foresight either?

Lol, i_luv_dusty is pretty dead on, but I would also say with a little more slope around the c pillar it would look just like a freakin prius. Aside form the GIANT H. I could understand the confusion.

I thought the blog post’s title “Insight Goes Where?” referred to the fact that the new Insight resembles a butt plug.

I have part of this conversation on video prior to the final setup. They did to a hybrid shoot (grouping the hybrids together) however, the driver insisted that the Insight (the same one pictured) belonged to Toyota!

What amazed me about the entire thing, was the fact that the representative for the show (walking with them) had NO idea what this car was!
