Nationally, the average price for a gallon of gas is closing in on $2 per gallon, and a prominent candidate in the U.S. presidential race is an outspoken proponent of stiffer fuel mileage requirements. With the upcoming release of the 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid, it's almost as though the Japanese automaker saw this day coming.
The 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid, due in showrooms over the summer, is Honda's third entry into the gasoline/electric hybrid market.
