The Honda Insight is a hybrid sedan that should be on every car shopper’s list of must-sees, whether you want a hybrid vehicle or not. It offers a long list of features that make it appealing to a wide range of drivers that go beyond its fuel-efficiency. Here is why the 2020 Insight is a hybrid you don’t want to miss.

The Driving Experience

The Insight offers exceptionally smooth acceleration and excellent handling. It gets its power from a 1.5-liter four-cylinder gas engine and two electric motors. Combined, these generate 151 horsepower and 197 pound-feet of torque. One of the motors provides power for generating and for starting the Insight, and the other propels the sedan. This means it can operate as either a parallel hybrid or run on pure electric power.

The Technology

All of the three Insight trims come with an impressive list of tech features, with Bluetooth standard in all models. The base has a 5-inch color display screen, and the EX and Touring trims get an 8-inch, high-resolution touch screen, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, satellite radio, HD, radio, and an eight-speaker stereo. The Touring adds in-vehicle Wi-Fi, and it upgrades the stereo to a 10-speaker system.

The Safety Features

All the Insights have a forward-collision warning system, automatic braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and a driver inattention monitor. Additional standard safety features include automatic high beam LED headlights and a rearview camera.

The 2020 Honda Insight is a must-see compact sedan. The fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain is just one of its many appealing features. Stop by and take one for a test drive today.
