Honda Insight vs. the competition
2019 Honda Insight
2018 Toyota Prius
Honda Insight vs. Toyota Prius
No hybrid comparison is complete without mentioning the Toyota Prius. In regard to fuel economy estimates, the Prius has the advantage at 56 mpg in combined driving. The Insight isn't far behind, registering a 52 mpg estimate. Bigger differences can be found in the personalities of these cars. The Insight looks like a typical sedan, while the Prius maintains its function-over-form silhouette. The Insight also drives more like a conventional car and is more responsive to your gas pedal inputs.
Honda Insight vs. Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid
Pricing for the Ioniq is very similar to that of the Honda Insight. The Ioniq has a slight edge in fuel economy, but an unnatural brake feel, elevated road noise, and lackluster ride and seat comfort hold it back. The Insight is generally more comfortable and enjoyable to drive.
Honda Insight vs. Kia Niro
Were it not for some subtle hybrid badging, you'd think the Kia Niro was any other compact crossover SUV. Its fuel economy is a little less than the Insight's. But at 49 mpg, it's still impressive considering the Niro's size. Like the Insight, the Niro has its hybrid batteries under the rear seats to allow for more cargo space. Get the Niro if cargo carrying is a priority. The Insight, however, offers a superior driving experience.
2019 Honda Insight Sedan for Sale
After a five-year absence, the original hybrid is back. This time around, the 2019 Honda Insight foregoes the futuristic or Prius-like styling in favor of a more conventional sedan appearance. It's offered in a base LX trim, the midgrade EX and the range-topping Touring.
Under the hood is a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that charges a 1.1-kWh lithium-ion battery under the rear seats. With the electric motor that drives the front wheels, the combined output is 151 horsepower and 197 pound-feet of torque. The electric motor provides primary propulsion, and the gasoline engine supplies power directly to the wheels under heavier acceleration.
Standard feature highlights for the LX include automatic LED headlights, automatic climate control, active noise cancellation, a multi-angle rearview camera, a 5-inch touchscreen, and a six-speaker audio system with a USB port and internet streaming radio. It also comes with plenty of advanced safety features such as adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning and mitigation, lane keeping assist, automatic high beams, a traffic sign reader, and a driver attention monitor.
Stepping up to the EX, which is our pick in the lineup, adds keyless entry, a rear-seat center armrest, 60/40-split folding rear seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, HondaLink smartphone integration, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and an eight-speaker audio system with satellite and HD radio and an additional USB port. The Honda LaneWatch blind-spot camera system is also included.
The top-of-the-line Touring model comes with LED foglights, a sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, power-adjustable front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a navigation system with voice activation and real-time traffic, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and a 10-speaker premium audio system.
The 2019 Honda Insight is priced competitively against the Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid, Kia Niro and Toyota Prius. We like the Insight for its more conventional styling and driving characteristics, even though it has a slight disadvantage in fuel economy. Take advantage of all the information and tools here at Edmunds to see which one is right for you.
