Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this unique 2006 Honda Insight.
The Insight is a hybrid vehicle and they have a cult-like
following. The Honda here is a pleasing Silverstone Metallic
exterior with a Gray cloth interior. This vehicle comes to us from
the original owner and has been well maintained and loved. It has
had a recent battery upgrade plus the discharger/charger to extend
the life of the battery. It has a clean Carfax that shows it's
maintenance history but we have more documents to go with the car,
including the original dealers window sticker, all original
brochures and manuals, and original floor mats. It operates well
and everything is good working order. Drive this one out of our
showroom or have us assist with shipping anywhere in the United
States!
The Honda Insight is a subcompact liftback 3,945 mm (155.3 in) in
length with a wheelbase of 2,400 mm (94.5 in) a height of 1,355 mm
(53.3 in) and a width of 1,695 mm (66.7 in). The first-generation
Insight was manufactured as a two-seater, launching in a single
trim level with a manual transmission and optional air
conditioning. In the second year of production two trim levels were
available: manual transmission with air conditioning, and
continuously variable transmission (CVT) with air conditioning.
The gasoline engine is a 67 hp (50 kW; 68 PS), 1.0-liter, ECA
series 3-cylinder unit providing lean burn operation with an
air-to-fuel ratio that can reach 25.8 to 1.The engine uses
lightweight aluminum, magnesium, and plastic to minimize weight.
The electrical motor assist adds another 10 kW (13 hp) (at 3000
rpm) and a maximum of 36 pound-feet (49 Nm) of torque when called
on, resulting in 73 hp (54 kW; 74 PS) at 5700 rpm and 91
foot-pounds force (123 N�m) of torque at 2000 rpm, with the aim to
boost performance to the level of a typical 1.5 L gasoline engine.
It also acts as a generator during deceleration and braking to
recharge the vehicle's batteries, and as the Insight's starter
motor. (This improves fuel efficiency and extends the lifetime and
fade resistance of the brakes, without adding unsprung weight).
When the car is not moving, for example at a stop light, the engine
shuts off. Power steering is electric, reducing accessory drag.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing
and/or $199 documentation fees.
