Touring 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
For the occupants of the front seats the 2022 Honda Insight Touring is a luxurious American Made cruiser with supple leather bucket seats and a quiet, smooth ride that really coddles ones bootie!
I have read reviews about the CVT and how the reviewers hate them... I really love the CVT as it does the work without shifting... it fits the overall driving experience really well.
This car is … super easy to go the speed limit in, and is easy to avoid uneconomical habits like jackrabbit starts and stops. The motors work with you to deliver smooth power, basically if you drive this like it's a limousine with a client who isn't in a hurry in back you will get the most out of this car.
The lanekeep assist and adaptive cruise control do about 65% of the work on long road trips, the driver is redundancy and you become a part of the cars tech package.
One of my first drives was on a pitch black night between Ely and Wells Nevada, it was pretty harsh because it was SO dark and cars 15 miles away seemed much closer. The Lanekeep Assist really helped as cars actually got close. The headlights are super bright and most people flashed me like my brights were on.
I am an older person and I am finding the tech to be very easy to use, and helpful in safe operation of the car.
The milage isn't as great as projected, I'm hoping that is because it's summer in Vegas and the AC is working overtime. I'm hoping that will change in winter.
The sound system is amazing!
Professional reviews also gripe about the engine "roaring" as the car goes uphill. I will say that if you were INSIDE the engine compartment, yes it is probably a "roar". However, because you are isolated in one of the 5 seats in the passenger compartment, it is a very faint and distant "roar" that just sounds like normal engine operation.
I am in love with this car, and didn't buy it because it's a Hybrid, but rather in spite of it.
Keep in mind, this car drinks 87 octane fuel... (usually mid grade).
I aslo considered the Mazda 3, Kia K5, Hyundai Elantra, and Nissan Sentra SE.
I ultimately picked the Honda based on the cabin layout and push button gearshift. I purchased it sight unseen and waited 4 weeks for it to arrive (I bought it the day after manufacture and VIN assignment).
This is by far the most comfortable, quiet and smooth riding car I've ever owned... I would compare the ride and quality to my grandmother's 1981 Buick Riveria (in 1981).. not quite as "floatly", but close. And so much better in layout and driving experience.
If you are a person who likes to go fast and get fast quickly, or have more than 2 people in the car on a regular basis... skip the Insight, it is not the car for you.
But if you like to go safely, comfortably, smoothly and economically... definitely consider the 2022 Insight. This is definitely the perfect car for an older person, it has everything that people who used to drive the sedans that Buick, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac would want, plus it's made in Greensburg, Indiana. (The Buick SUV I tested was made in Korea).
