First Drive and time to say goodbye

Honda Insight (2001) - The hideous hybrid

The moment of truth has arrived as we take the Honda Insight out for a spin. In this brief video featuring snapshots, you'll see how it performed admirably. We navigated through town, made multiple stops, and even ventured onto the freeway. The MPG numbers are slowly on the rise, and the car is running just as smoothly as it should.

But now, it's time to bid farewell to this unique vehicle. It deserves someone who can devote time to it and appreciate the charm of these first-generation hybrids. So, it's up for sale, and I'm hopeful that its new owners will continue its story right here on this site.
