The styling group did a great job on this car; it's no secret that we'll see a production car which looks very much like this concept in only a few years, if we even have to wait that long. This is probably the basis for the 2009 or 2010 Civic, and it's no secret that wherever Honda fits this car into their sales plans, worldwide and in the US, it'll be a gas/electric hybrid and it will be popular ... As long as Honda doesn't do anymore 'downsizing', makes the interior comfortable for four and the engine/motor has enough 'ooomph' to "cut the mustard" on our freeways.
