Which Honda hybrid was the company's third hybrid model after the Insight and Civic Hybrid?

The Honda Accord Hybrid was Honda’s third hybrid model after the Insight and Civic Hybrid.

Honda introduced the first-generation Insight in Japan in 1999 and in the United States later that year. The Civic Hybrid followed in Japan in 2001 and reached the U.S. market for the 2003 model year. The Accord Hybrid arrived in December 2004 as a 2005 model.

The Accord was notable because it paired Honda’s Integrated Motor Assist system with a V6 engine and Variable Cylinder Management. Honda described it as the world’s first V6-powered hybrid vehicle, combining stronger performance with improved fuel economy.

A common mix-up is confusing the Accord Hybrid with the later Honda Clarity, CR-Z, or Fit Hybrid. Those models came afterward or served different markets; they were not the third model in Honda’s original Insight–Civic–Accord sequence.
