Honda Insight
This pioneer of the hybrid segment is quietly humming along without causing too many waves. Once a two-seater (2000-2006), the Insight is now a more group-friendly vehicle with a 5-seat configuration. The LX trim offers all the basics, to which the EX adds certain luxury features, such as a navigation system. Its hybrid system includes a small 1.3L engine. The 2012 year brings a few style changes as well as reduced fuel consumption.
