Great looking hybrid performance

Purchased the Insight in the Touring trim recently for my wife as she has a long daily commute. Couldn't be happier with our purchase. Averaging 46 mpg thru the 1st 1,000 miles and improving over time as we play with the driving modes and regenerative braking settings. The Touring trim level is worth the money in my opinion as it comes loaded. This is a great looking hybrid sedan(much better looking than a Prius). UPDATE: As of 4/8/2020 Still loving our Insight Touring model. MPG dropped to 40MPG during cold winter months due to use of heater and heated seats(Chicago has really cold winter). But MPG's are starting to climb back up as it's starting to warm up now as we enter Spring. Still highly recommend this car to anyone! Well worth it and much nicer styling over the Prius. 4/8/2023 Update: Now at 62,500 miles. Replaced tires at 55,000 miles last Summer. Still no problems. Cost to own this car has been outstanding. Couldn't be happier.

Very disappointed in this car. i got the touring edition that states it gets 51mpg city and 45highway. Ive tried every trick i could to make it so, but my average on this car is always between 37-38. Also, the car can get really loud sometimes, even when driving at lower speeds. Now, at this time, the radio volume is giving me trouble, it won't get loud. just got the car november 2018. the toyota camry was a little bit more expensive but now i wish i would have spent the extra money. **over a year now and gas mileage hasn’t changed, still average 39mph, doesn’t matter what I do

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 :)

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.

Engine very noisy! Engine not big enough! Too much road noise! Wipers blades from factory suck! Had to have new windshield put in car due to crappy wipers that ruint wind shield! Fuel mileage not as stated! Noise from cvtvor drivekine at around 60 moh! Continentsl tires are very noisy on car! We have the hybrid ex touring model. Bu the way honda you should fix these issues and you would have a wonderful hybrid vehicle! Not much change since review bit fuel mpg has decreased since last review. Update 8/1/22. Will be going with a prius next go around unless honda can get the road noise out of a insight!
