While Honda is still focused on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles as the future of the auto industry, the company is now a little less bearish on plug-in vehicles.
For some time we’ve known that Honda was working on both a full hybrid powertrain and even a Volt-like range extended plug-in vehicle, and now we know that Honda will bring two plug-in vehicles to market in 2012. One, a battery-powered electric vehicle, the other some kind of plug-in hybrid that is reportedly capable of achieving 136 mpg.
Until 2012, Integrated Motor Assisted mild hybrids, such as the Insight, will make up Honda’s hybrid portfolio.

I have a Toyots Prius and am currently getting 48.4 MPG. I was getting over 50 MPG last week but it has been so hot I have had to turn on the AC.
