Buy a new 2008 2009 Honda Insight
The 2008 2009 Honda Insight Hybrid, combining the best fuel economy of any car sold in the U.S. with its own unique style, is the latest technological achievement by Honda. Powered by Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMAT) system that pairs a 3-cylinder VTECT-E engine with an electric motor, the Insight comes fully loaded with dual front airbags (SRS), power windows, mirrors and door locks, a remote entry system, AM/FM stereo cassette, alloy wheels and much more. Looking at the 2008 2009 Honda Insight picture, you immediately see that this is a different kind of automobile.
We went to the test track to get more info on 2008 2009 Honda Insight performance specs and were actually impressed with the Insight's acceleration and top speeds. Scooting around town was a breeze, then we took the insight from 0-60 mph in 11.3 sec with manual transmission, 11.5 with CVT. Not ideally suited for the Autobahn, merging and 2-lane passing on the freeway taxed the little car, especially on long, steep upgrades. CVT is smooth and responsive in both "S" and "D" settings, but feels liveliest in "S."
