Honda Insight Sales figures not as predicted

It looks like Honda predication regarding sales figures of the new hybrid Insight has not reach the initial units of 90,000. Now, American Honda Vice President John Mendel, says that selling 50,000 units will be just fine, and will not put Honda on a difficult selling situation. A bit of disappointment since everyone was waiting a competitor model for the Toyota Prius for so long? Honda was expecting that the insight will sell about 200,000 units globally with half of them sold in North America.
