Insight: A Hybrid Pioneer
The original Honda Insight, introduced in 1999, broke new ground as the first gasoline-electric hybrid car sold in America.
Aerodynamic and innovative, the Insight redefined the way engineers thought about fuel-efficient vehicles. The centerpiece of this groundbreaking car was the compact and efficient Integrated Motor Assist IMA® hybrid powertrain.
The Insight still stands as a testament to Honda’s challenging spirit and our willingness to reach for an impossible goal. And that spirit lives on in our newest hybrid, which shares the Insight name.
2009 Insight: Hybrid Evolution
The new Insight Concept draws upon a rich heritage, and by making hybrid technology available to more drivers, this vehicle is a pioneer in its own right.
Stylistically, it bears a family resemblance to the FCX Clarity fuel cell vehicle. The Insight Concept has improved on the design of the original Insight with a roomier 5-passenger cabin. Five-door access and folding rear seats make the Insight Concept perfect for the active lifestyle of most families today.
The new Insight Concept also benefits from improvements to Honda’s latest IMA® technology, including reduced size and cost along the way. A new level of affordability and practicality characterizes the new Insight, offering further evidence of Honda’s longstanding environmental leadership and our constant emphasis on making life better for our customers, and society as a whole.
