Honda Insight 2020

The Honda Insight is a hybrid sedan that was reintroduced by Honda in 2019 as a 2019 model year vehicle. The 2020 Honda Insight carries over the features and design from the previous year’s model. It offers a balance of fuel efficiency, advanced technology, and a comfortable driving experience.

In terms of its exterior design, the 2020 Insight features a sleek and aerodynamic profile with clean lines and a modern appearance. It showcases a stylish and sophisticated look, with available features such as LED headlights, LED taillights, and alloy wheels. Inside the cabin, the 2020 Insight provides a spacious and comfortable environment for up to five passengers. The interior is designed with a focus on quality and refinement, offering available features such as leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat. The rear seats have a 60/40 split-folding design, allowing for versatile cargo configurations. The 2020 Insight is powered by a hybrid powertrain, which combines a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor. Together, they produce a combined output of 151 horsepower, providing sufficient power for daily driving. The hybrid system allows the Insight to operate in different driving modes, including all-electric, hybrid, or gasoline-only, depending on the driving conditions and battery charge level.

Fuel efficiency is a key highlight of the Insight. The 2020 model achieves excellent gas mileage, with an EPA-estimated rating of up to 55 mpg in the city and 49 mpg on the highway, depending on driving conditions and trim level. This makes the Insight an efficient option for those looking to reduce their fuel consumption and environmental impact. In terms of technology and features, the 2020 Insight comes well-equipped. It features a touchscreen infotainment system with available Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, allowing for seamless smartphone integration. Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera, push-button start, and dual-zone automatic climate control are among the standard features. Higher trim levels may offer additional features such as a moonroof, a premium audio system, navigation, and advanced driver-assistance systems. Speaking of safety, the 2020 Insight comes with Honda Sensing as a standard feature. This suite of safety and driver-assistance technologies includes collision mitigation braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, road departure mitigation, and more. These features work together to enhance safety and provide peace of mind during your drives. Please note that the information provided here is based on the Honda Insight 2020 model up until my knowledge cutoff in September 2021. For the most up-to-date and detailed information about the 2020 Honda Insight, I recommend contacting a Honda dealership or visiting the official Honda website.

Low Remote Signal Strength
The vehicle transmits radio waves to locate the remote when locking/unlocking the doors*, opening the trunk*, or activating the power system. In the following cases, locking/unlocking the doors*, opening the trunk*, or activating the power system may be inhibited or operation may be unstable:

  • Strong radio waves are being transmitted by nearby equipment.
  • You are carrying the remote together with telecommunications equipment, laptop computers, cell phones, or wireless devices.
  • A metallic object is touching or covering the remote.

Communication between the remote and the vehicle consumes the remote’s battery. Battery life is about two years, but this varies depending on the regularity of use. The battery is consumed whenever the remote is receiving strong radio waves. Avoid placing it near electrical appliances such as televisions and personal computers.

Using the Smart Entry with Push Button Start System
When you carry the remote, you can lock/unlock the doors and open the trunk. You can lock/unlock the doors within a radius of about 32 inches (80 cm) of the outside door handle. You can open the trunk within about 32 inches (80 cm) radius from the trunk release button. Touch the door lock sensor on the front door.

  • Some exterior lights flash; the beeper sounds; all the doors lock; and the security system sets.

Locking/Unlocking the Doors from the Outside
If the interior light switch is in the door-activated position, the interior light comes on when you unlock the doors. No doors opened: The light fades out after 30 seconds. Doors relocked: The light goes off immediately.

Using the Smart Entry with Push Button Start System*
If you do not open a door within 30 seconds of unlocking the vehicle with the smart entry system, the doors will automatically relock. You can lock or unlock doors using the smart entry system only when the power mode is in VEHICLE OFF.
