Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options

The 2010 Honda Insight is a four-door hatchback available in base LX and uplevel EX trims. The LX comes standard with 15-inch steel wheels, full power accessories, automatic climate control, a tilt/telescoping steering column, a height-adjustable driver seat and a four-speaker CD audio system with an auxiliary audio jack.

The lone option is a navigation system (EX only) that includes voice-activated controls and Bluetooth connectivity.

Powertrains and Performance

The 2010 Honda Insight’s hybrid system consists of a 1.3-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and an electric motor paired with a nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The gas engine is good for 88 hp and 88 lb-ft of torque, while the electric motor chips in 13 hp and 58 lb-ft. Due to varying power peaks, the maximum combined output is 98 hp and 123 lb-ft of torque. At our test track, the Insight zipped from zero to 60 mph in 10.9 seconds.

EPA fuel economy ratings are 40 mpg city/43 highway and 41 combined.

Safety

All Insights come standard with anti-lock brakes (front disc/rear drum), front-seat side airbags and side curtain airbags.

Interior Design and Special Features

Inside, the 2010 Honda Insight is a distinctive mix of familiar Honda design elements and edgy hybrid-themed flourishes. Most major controls are intuitive in operation, including the standard automatic climate control.

The background color of the Civic-style digital speedometer switches from blue to green when you’re being judicious with your right foot. An “ECON” button to the left of the steering wheel makes the powertrain even more efficient, albeit at a tangible cost in straight-line performance.
