- Power of Dreams - Rest assured, the Honda Insight is in no way underpowered.
- Integrated Motor Assist - It is this very system that currently gives the Honda Insight its excellent fuel economy and power.
- Outlying Impressions - It has poise, big wheels, attractive eyes and some would even say a perky rear-end.
- Internal Aesthetics - What anyone would find most interesting is the Insight's Guidance Function. It commends you when you drive economically, and berates you when you are doing Mother Nature no favors.
- Driving Impressions - Fuel consumption and you may have guessed is par excellence. We managed to clock 21 kilometers per liter when we drove it up north on the North-South Highway and when we did a combined urban and highway driving stint we still clocked over 18 kilometers per liter.
- Conclusion - It has a good price point; it's big enough for most, looks modern and doesn't burn a hole in your pocket or the environment.
