Used 2019 Honda Insight Consumer Reviews
EXCELLENT but *Missing* Basics. AVOID!!!
Recently, last week, purchased the vehicle. Find it very nice BUT . . . the idiotic decision to NOT have a spare tire made is deplorable!!! Living in a rural/mountainous state, not having a spare tire available is totally undesired. Should a flat ever occur, using the silly spray glue fixer is not possible, especially during the winter months. The Trunk does actually have the place (size & design) for a spare to be placed within *just* STUPIDLY kept empty. I had purchased one, from the dealer, prior to the pick-up. Upon getting the car, discovered that a regular tire does not fit (even the dealer did not know that) - has to be one of temporary wheel replacements. Hence, the tire was filling up the entire Trunk space. Thus, had to purchase one for e-Bay. Specifically made for the Honda Insight but just from another manufacturer. Idiotic to say the least on Honda's side. Also more than disgusted with the lack of having the CD option. I do not care to pay a monthly extra just to listen to music I am not interested in. Will be going forward and trying (hard to locate) a CD player that can used within the vehicle. I went after picking up the car to a Hyundai dealership and the cars there had CD players & REAL spare tires for each model. THUS, I for one, will NOT recommend HONDA if you live anywhere that driving more than five minutes at a time is too short a trip as well as a spot where the roads are not perfect to the Nth degree (in case of a flat). AMEN

Riding the wave with Honda Insight
If you are not a surfer and ever wondered how it will be to surf on the waves. Well, Honda Insight makes you feel like one - a surfer for the roads. With some speed, the Insight feels like you are surfing on the ocean waves - smooth, gentle and exhilarating at times. Check it out for yourself with a test drive, the gadgets are plentiful, and with the Touring trim line you can enjoy the nice summer breeze through the moon roof, and with leather all around, you will enjoy riding it like a powerful horseman. Ah! if you liked role play, and wished to be James Bond with his leading lady, then yes, each time you drive the Honda Insight, you will feel like one. Go for it :)

Avoid this car.
Well, I also bought this car but I will NEVER recommend. Let me explain why. Issues: 1. Traffic Sign Recognition System doesn't work when there is yellow background. 2. Traffic Sign Recognition System may show incorrect and weird values intermittentlym while making turn on the roads. You can drive and check if you have similar issues, in case you also have Honda Insight 2019. Not sure about 2020 or other years. These two issues are critical because you may vary your car speed depending on this system and you may get involved into car incident while on the road. I raised both issues to Kirkland Honda (WA), went there, showed them the issues and pictures with weird values. They initially told me they informed Honda and waiting for it. Later on, after one year, they replied it is limitation. I explained it is not limitation but they should fix it. They didn't bother to help. Eventually I sold it off. If you want more detail, please contact me, I will share the VIN number, my email changes with Kirkland Honda.

Agrivation unlimited
I average 44 mpg. Its often braking for no reason. Hard to get through road construction with the auto correct trying to pull the car into the barrels. Constant auto correct on rural roads. On hills and corners it trys to correct. The dealer and honda says to turn it off. I say if it has to be turned off, they should not have it on the vehicle. I will get rid of it ASAP. My 05 civic was awesome. I would get another if it did not have all of the so called safety features. They are not worth the agrivation.

A hidden surprise
Tired of the Toyota Prius V3. So I looked at the Honda Insight.Although it only came in a sedan, there was more room then expected. and the fuel economy was higher. The safety features are wonderful and keeps the driver alert. I've had the car for 6 months and i'm still finding features i did not use. Love the car and ease to get in and out of.
