Honda revealed the look and name Thursday of its new hybrid-only car to go on sale in the U.S. next spring. It is expected to be one of the cheapest cars in the next generation of gas-electric hybrids, according to USA Today.

"They will crack the under-$20,000 barrier," predicts John O'Dell, senior editor of Edmund's Green Car Advisor. "It's a new generation of a more affordable hybrid."

It will be called the Insight, reviving the name of the first hybrid in the U.S., sold here by Honda from 1999 to 2006. A concept version of the new Insight, of which a photo was released Thursday, will be unveiled next month at the 2008 Paris International Auto Show.
