The seats are form fitting and feel like sports car seats with a lot of side support and back support. see full Honda Insight review |

Rear seat is super uncomfortable to get in and out of if you are tall. see full Honda Insight review |

For tall people, its a no go. Did not like it one bit and had to think about this short fall if I ever wanted to carry friends. Luckly I normally drive alone see full Honda Insight review |

This is a glaring issue with the Insight. Leg room is for children and my head hits the roof and a little bit of the rear hatch. There is a warning sticker about making sure go watch the heads of your rear seat passengers when closing the hatch. see full Honda Insight review |

The car weighs 2700lb and is 98hp. This power to weight ratio along with a CVT keeps that keeps the motor in the power band makes this thing perform almost like a sports car. We love the get-up and go and the how tight this car feels in the corners. see full Honda Insight review |

Not as easy to pass due to the weak 1.3L engine. see full Honda Insight review |

A little harsh sounding but expected it for the size of the engine. see full Honda Insight review |

A bigger battery for the IMA motor would be good. see full Honda Insight review |
