Honda Insight
Hybrid Heart
The centerpiece of the Honda Insight is the latest Integrated Motor Assist IMA® system. This next-generation hybrid system benefits from everything we have learned as the first automaker to bring a hybrid to the market in the U.S., the original Insight. Compared to the system in the Civic Hybrid, the battery pack was improved, resulting in cost savings and reduced weight. Its location also allows for greater cabin space. The Insight features a highly efficient, 1.3-liter, 8-valve, i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine and DC-brushless electric motor, and it's equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
Efficiency Booster
The unique Eco Assist™[1] system enables increased efficiency for improved performance through two elements, an ECON button[1] that controls certain functions of the car, and a feedback system that lets you monitor your driving performance. Eco Scoring at the conclusion of the drive provides drivers with even more of an incentive to drive green.

Q. What's the crucial ingredient in a hybrid car that has nothing to do with mpg?
A. FUN.
Great Audio
Half the fun of driving on less gas is listening to full sound in the all-new Insight. Standard on the LX is an AM/FM/CD audio system with four speakers, including an MP3/auxiliary input jack. A built-in Radio Data System (RDS) gives you additional information about your music. EX models add a pair of tweeters and Honda's USB Audio Interface[1].
Choose the available Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™ with voice recognition[2] and also enjoy the factory-installed Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®[3] communication tool.
Toss it in
The Insight was designed with versatility in mind. It seats five, and has five doors to match. The 60/40 split rear fold-down seatback offers maximum flexibility for people to poles to pets?and everything in between.
411 Before You
You don't have to look far for the information you need while driving. As part of its two-tier instrument panel, the Insight features a sophisticated Multi-Information Display (MID) that provides data on fuel consumption, temperature and other essentials. The MID is used as part of the Eco Assist™[4] system for enhanced efficiency.

Some USB devices with security software and digital rights-protected files may not work. Please see your Honda dealer for details.

The hybrid for all.
The advanced safety features you'd expect to find in a Honda are right there in the Insight?from airbags to Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure. ACE™ body structure increases Insight passenger protection in frontal collisions, and makes it more crash compatible with vehicles of differing ride heights. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) uses a special modulator to pulse the brakes to help prevent wheel lockup, helping the driver retain steering control when braking hard. And the Electronic Brake Distribution system (EBD) balances the braking forces at each wheel according to how the car is dynamically loaded.
And those are just a few of the safety features found on the Insight. Because the Insight is focused on efficiency and affordability?without sacrificing safety.
