2014 Honda Insight driven by a hybrid system consisting of a gasoline engine 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor and nickel-metal hydride battery pack. The maximum combined output is 98 horsepower and 123 pound-feet of torque. 

Power flows to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission (CVT) that basically functions like a regular automatic. A stop-start system automatically shut down the gasoline engine when you stop in traffic to save fuel. 

Inside, the Honda Insight offers a fairly basic accommodation, particularly in the basic model, which does not have a center console and only has one pair of speakers for stereo. On a positive note, gauges and controls well placed and intuitive. 

Especially important is the graphical display of your driving coach with the most fuel-efficient way possible - color background digital speedometer change depending on how efficient you are driving. 

While the front seats are quite comfortable Insight, the rear seat is short on both head and legroom. Interior cargo space (15.9 cubic feet behind the rear seats split 60/40 or 31.5 cubic feet with the seatbacks folded down) is sufficient, although you will find more in other hatchbacks. 

In the 2014 Honda Insight hybrid and drive less as more like gasoline-only-powered model familiar. This is due to the fact that the four-cylinder car engine is always pushing the vehicle - an electric motor kick only when more power is needed. 

Contrast this to the full hybrid powertrains (such as the Toyota Prius C), which can propel the car at low speed through a battery-powered electric motor.
