2001 Honda Insight Road Test
Honda has a long history of bringing high-efficiency low-emission vehicles to market. Introduced back in 1973, the CVCC (Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion) was so efficient that it passed California's strict emission standards without a catalytic converter. Always concerned with the environment, Honda has brought us the Civic VX, the natural gas burning Civic GX as well as the 'zero emissions' electrically powered EV Plus. The Insight is the first of these to offer the efficiency of an electric motor and the user friendliness of a conventional gasoline engine.
