Came over my Google Alert for Civic hybrid:

Terry; stay informed

Nice timeline at the end of the article.

good read. ..but its stuff most of us already know about, except for the history.

i got around 20 km a liter when i drove a civic 5 spd using advanced hypermiler techniques
and now I drive a salvage nwh20 prius that gets almost to 25 km/l with 195,000 km to date.
