This Honda Insight lists for about $5000 added than our analogously able Four Seasons Fit. The added money nets you a continuously capricious chiral rather than the Fit's 5-speed chiral or automated transmission, two inches added in breadth (the cars accept identical amplitude and track), nicer attic mats, and, oh yeah, Honda's Integrated Motor Assist Technology. The amalgam array a whopping 12 mpg bigger in the city-limits and 8 mpg bigger on the highway. And yet, it drives actual agnate to the Fit, not hasty back they allotment abounding abeyance components. In fact, the a lot of apparent aberration on the alley is not due to the Insight's electric motor but rather to its transmission. The CVT eliminates the engine bombinate that afflicts the Fit at artery speeds. Around boondocks though, it makes the Insight feel added sluggish, and doesn't action the attention of Honda's accomplished chiral shifter.
Honestly, if I were in the bazaar for a baby Honda, I'd canyon over both these offerings and get a Civic, even if it meant scrimping on options. The Fit offers abundant autogenous versatility, and the Insight has aberrant mileage, but the Civic is the best all-around car, abnormally for those who do added than casual artery driving.
