Hybrid car technology is continuously advancing with better hybrid vehicles launched into the market each year. Hybrids like the Honda Accord and Honda Civic are proof of Honda's focus in developing fuel-efficient and low-emission cars.
Honda hybrids carry the same power, efficiency and sophistication that the Honda brand is well known for. Honda has ensured that it is well positioned to compete with hybrid leader Toyota in getting a share of the world's increasing demand for hybrid cars.

Honda has come a long way in hybrid technology. The 2003 Honda Civic has been one of the most successful hybrid cars released in the US market. It was modeled after the 1972 Civic sedan, a compact, fuel efficient car that still holds its value compared to majority of the compact sedans offered in the market.
