The centerpiece of the Honda Insight is the latest
Integrated Motor Assist IMA® system. This next-generation hybrid system is exactly the type of innovation you’d expect from the first company to bring a hybrid to the U.S. The Insight features a highly efficient, 1.3-liter, 8-valve, i-VTEC
® 4-cylinder engine and DC-brushless electric motor, and it's equipped with a
continuously variable transmission (CVT).
The unique
Eco Assist[1] system enables increased efficiency for improved performance through two elements. An
ECON button[1] controls various functions of the car, and a feedback system lets you monitor your driving performance. Eco Scoring at the conclusion of the drive provides drivers with a fun incentive to drive green.
