To help users realize the benefits of the Honda Insight in car technology, a new technology called Drive Assist System Ecological (Eco Assist), is included in the standard for all models.
Eco Assist combines several functions:
• Econ Mode, With just the touch of a button, can adjust the function of mechanical power output, extend the duration of silent time vehicle position, increasing the electric shock at the decline over the speed and gain energy savings in the unit Air conditioner. As a result, fuel efficiency can be achieved.
• Guidance function, is used to estimate the acceleration and braking while driving. Change the colors on the speedometer may indicate the fuel efficiency of the driver's style. If the driver drove the vehicle correctly, then the light will turn green indicating drave
loving environment. Then, if the indicator light is blue-green, this indicates that the driver's quite efficient. Now the latter, if the speedometer shows in blue, meaning the driver did not love the environment because of driving with excessive use of fuel. Motorists can get fuel efficiency simply by referring to the intuitive color display.
• Scoring Function, located in the center of the instrument panel. Multi-information display provides information about the numbers (scorring function), which can be seen the numbers indicate the fuel efficiency of stage performance based on results of the driver. When the car is turned off, the rate of car usage when first turned on until turned off will be listed. Figures also show the cumulative performance so far has been crossed. Given Honda's HDD Internavi system, drivers can access directly the result for this car usage and the addition of a statistically complete assessment. InterNavi Consumers can access directly via the internet about fuel efficiency based on how they drive, the overall rate of usage of fuel efficiency, ranking among the other drivers in all of Japan and other information related to fuel efficiency. Scoring function supports the driver to be more interested to know more about fuel efficiency and familiar with the usage of technology like this car in the long run.
