Why The Original Honda Insight Has A Huge Cult Following Today – SlashGear

Every little facet of the Insight has been sculpted and chiseled to allow air to flow around it. It has skirts over the rear fenders like a Cadillac from the 1960s. The rear half of the Insight looks like a concept car and the roofline dramatically lowers and falls off onto a sort of ledge that’s doing a good impression of a rear bumper. 

It’s ostensibly a hatchback design, in that it has a rear hatch, but it also looks like it was designed in 2030. The interior looks more like a doctor’s office than the bridge of the Starship Enterprise and is as barebones as possible, sporting only two seats, and a very basic cassette player. Betraying the mundanity is a digital gauge cluster that wouldn’t look out of place in a space shuttle. 

The enthusiast community still adores the Insight today for a few reasons, and its otherworldly looks are certainly part of the equation. The potential fuel savings are absolutely unignorable, as the five-speed models can achieve upwards of 70 miles per gallon. For comparison, a 2004 Prius comes in at an estimated 46 combined miles per gallon. Seventy miles per gallon is extraordinary for even the most miserly hybrids today, and borderline magic over 20 years ago.
