Honda has been selling Hybrids since atleast '99, when they came out with a hybrid right before Toyota came out with the Prius.

for a while they have had Hybrid version available for most of their car models.

Not really. The Insight was a gutless two seater designed for CARB compliance. You couldn't even buy one at most dealers.

Toyota Prius was the first serious hybrid. They sold over 6 million of them. Honda sales were 1/25th that.

Ah I stand corrected. I see they never sold them globally outside the local & American markets. And eclipsed by Toyota by about 20x.
