| Kan Kawakami, a well-known automotive journalist and minicar collector who lives in Yuzawa, Niigata prefecture, is the owner of Honda Insight and the HSS970i, which are both hybrids. He is busy with snow-removal work almost every day during the winter, during which there is heavy snowfall. He says "The hybrid HSS970i is really easy to turn. It used to take me nearly two hours to remove snow, and now I can finish the work in 30 minutes." The space in front of the parking lot is surrounded by a wall of snow that gets to heights in excess of three meters. |
