Toyota Prius vs. Honda Insight

Why does the Prius garner so much attention while the Honda Insight (second generation) wallows along in relative obscurity in the Hybrid world? Is it marketing? While not a fan of either visually, the Insight is less hideous looking. And Honda seemed to avoid the wide-spread, public recall bug that recently plagued Toyota yet I still see very few of them on the road. I see 10 Priuses to every Insight if not more. I just wonder why that is? Confusion that the Insight is the same as the old 2 seat one? IDK.
