High fuel economy and low ownership cost is the name of the game for the Honda Insight. In addition to its low retail price, the Insight regularly earns a spot on the Kelley Blue Book’s 5-Year Cost To Own Awards list.
In addition to being less powerful and less fuel-efficient than a Toyota Prius, the Honda Insight isn’t as roomy. Other sore points are the Insight’s unrefined hybrid powertrain operation and a climate control system that left us wanting (and too warm in summer). The Prius is a better hybrid, and many gasoline- or diesel-powered cars now offer around 40 mpg or better.
