2012 Honda Insight Hybrid Review
This future generation vehicle will be powered by Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMAT) system that connects a 3-cylinder VTECT-E engine along with an electric motor.
The system will be fully equipped with power doors, mirrors, and windows, a remote entry system, alloy wheels, and AM/FM stereo cassette. When compared to the 2011 version, this vehicle will be fairly different.
Technical Specs
The highlights of the performance specifications of 2012 Insight include a higher top speed, and the fiery acceleration. With this engine, the vehicle is expected to take 11.3 seconds to reach 60 kilometers of speed with manual transmission, whereas it requires about 11.5 seconds with the CVT.
Looking at the physical appearance, not much has changed, though there could be minor changes on the front portion of the vehicle.
The engine integrated in this vehicle will work with a 5-speed manual transmission that directs power to the rear wheels. The hatchback with CVT and A/C is loaded with a traditional 1.0-liter I3 65-horsepower hybrid engine, whose fuel efficiency pattern achieves 56 mpg on the highway and 57 mpg in the city, coupled to a standard variable speed automatic transmission with overdrive shift.
