"The all-new Insight has been very well received by a wide range of customers due to its excellent environmental performance, easy-to-use packaging, light and comfortable driving and affordable pricing," the automaker said in a statement.
The all-new Insight won't have a fresh, direct competitor until the redesigned Toyota Prius hits showrooms next week, albeit at a higher price.
The Insight recently went on sale in the United States priced at $19,800, making it also the least-expensive hybrid offering.
