2001 Honda Insight. The automobile drives perfectly strait down the road.. and runs great.   It is from the Carolina’s. I have been the owner of the car for about 2 years I am guessing.  I needed a car with great fuel economy… great dependability.. and the best one I could find was the Honda insight.. with over 50 mpg. It lives up to its standards.   Being that the car is made out of aluminum, from top to bottom, one will not have to be concerned about the car becoming a rust bucket.   It has new spark plugs. Oil changes are done with the best oil available.  The timing belt is a chain.. so you don’t have to change it like regular Honda auto’s.  When I purchased it.. it had a dent on the car. It looked like a car backed into the area just past the passenger door.. and I had it fixed correctly.  The dealership I purchased the car through.. could not find me a stick shift Honda insight in blue.  They were all on the west coast…and mostly automatic.  I desired one in a stick shift for the better miles per gallon.  I feel the  stick shift is more dependable..  and more fun to drive.  The only problem was the one they did find in the Carolina’s was a salvage title.. because the insurance company did not want to fix the dent for the previous owner. I looked at pictures and decided the damage was so small, that it would be worth fixing. I had it inspected and Honda said I needed a new hybrid battery because it was 11 years old.. even though it drove fine.. so I had it replaced along with an o2 sensor.  The car will now and then get a check engine light code that says the cataletic converter is on its way out. right now the light is not on.. but it will probably come back..  That converter is 200 dollars new on ebay if someone chooses to replace it.  The Honda shifts well. Clutch is great.  There is a smaller check mark shaped scratch on the right rear of the back bumper..noticeable close up. a  couple of  little scratches and some nicks around the car  and some stone chips on the front of the car.. and a little scrape on the front bumper cover's clear coat.. hardly noticeable..  There is one tiny ding on the car that I noticed on the driver’s door.. too small to get a picture of it...  Most of the stuff is only noticeable from a foot away. The car looks great otherwise.. The windshield had a small crack.. so I replaced it.  There is no warranty on the car.  The ABS brakes work fine.. brakes have been checked and have plenty of life in them.. and stop very well.  The tires are good. The electronics inside the vehicle work well.  It still has the original cassette radio in it....  The air conditioning works great.  This car has been more dependable than any car I have had prior, and I would not be selling this car if I could fit more family members into it.  I still get people pointing at.. and complimenting the Honda which tells me that it still looks pretty good. Please stop by and take the car for a ride if you desire.  (440) 759-9683.  I have tried to describe all the little things wrong with the car the best I could.

               

P.S.  I have purchased a hybrid battery grid charger for the vehicle.. and will throw that in with the car if the price of the car goes above $3,500.00… If the charger gets installed.. It just allows someone to plug the car into a wall outlet to keep the hybrid battery at peak performance.  This charger is a permanent part of the car once installed.. and will only fit this style Honda Insight. It has instructions and should be installed by a mechanic facility.  The car doesn't actually need the charger.. the car itself handles charging the battery as it is driven.  Its just an extra item for better miles per gallon and ensuring the hybrid battery lasts as long as possible:)

Honda begins Micro Commuter testing

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Autocar is reporting that Honda is about to start testing prototypes of its Micro Commuter, a petite EV that'll do adorable battle with the Renault Twizy if it reaches production.
Honda first showed the Micro Commuter, a so called super-urban vehicle, in November. Like the Renault, it features a 1+1 setup, meaning there's a central seat up front and a small backseat behind it. Honda has designed the tandem runabout for versatility, featuring a body that can be adapted for everything from child hauling to elderly passengers.
A rear-mounted electric motor draws power from a 15-kilowatt, lithium-ion battery, granting it a top speed of 50 miles per hour. With 37 miles of range, the Micro Commuter could be a neat urban solution. That said, these were figures that were announced in November, so we wouldn't be surprised to see them change as Honda gathers data from its new prototype testing program.

Honda Urban SUV concept previews Fit-based crossover

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

We've been hearing a lot of rumblings this year about a new crossover based on the Honda Fit, and now we finally get to see what this B-segment CUV might look like. Called the Urban SUV Concept, Honda's new small crossover has made its debut at the Detroit Auto Show, but we'll have to wait until 2014 to see the production version on sale in the US. Honda says the production version of this concept, whatever it will be called, will slot below the CR-V in terms of size and price.
In terms of this concept's styling, there is plenty of the new Honda Accord in its face, and it looks like a more rugged version of the Nissan Juke, as well as a more practical alternative to the Hyundai Veloster. With its short overhangs, the concept measures 169.3 inches in length, making it about eight inches longer than a Fit hatchback and nine inches shorter than the CR-V. Honda confirmed that its new crossover will debut a telematics system for Honda, and it will use one of Honda's new Earth Dreams engines; we previously reported that this engine would be a 1.5-liter I4 paired with a continuously variable transmission.
The next-generation Fit is expected to debut before this new crossover model, and both models will be built at Honda's Celaya, Mexico assembly plant, which is scheduled to open early next year. A new sedan is also expected to round out the lineup of Fit-based products. For more information about this new Urban SUV Concept, scroll down for Honda's official press release.
