Don Davis Honda in Buffalo Proudly Carries the Gas Saving 2012 Honda Insight Hybrid

Online, March 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Don Davis Honda is proud to carry the 2012 Honda Insight, one of the most affordable hybrids on the market that helps to save Buffalo drivers their bottom line and spending on gas.

The Insight is so affordable that Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com recently named the Insight the only hybrid on the "Cheapest to Own List." The Insight was one of 16 models to make the list. The cost to own was determined by MSRP as well as costs from the first five years for gas, insurance, maintenance and more.

The 2012 Honda Insight is powered by Honda's Integrated Motor Assist IMA® hybrid system. The Insight is powered by a 1.3-liter, four-cylinder engine and DC-brushless electric motor and a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). The system helps to achieve great performance for the Insight, attaining 41 mpg city and 44 mpg highway.

The interior of the insight leads to a whole new hybrid experience. Even with high fuel economy, the Insight still allows drivers to take advantage of the Insight's great performance. Paddle shifters on the steering wheel allow drivers to shift gears through the paddles, giving a race car driving experience for drivers. Drivers will also enjoy the steering wheel-mounted controls which allow them to control audio effects while keeping both hands on the wheel. Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® is also available to allow drivers to speak on their mobile phone hands free.

Honda safety is well known in the industry and the Insight comes loaded with Honda's best safety technology to protect all passengers. The ACE™ body structure helps increase the protection of occupants in frontal collisions and is more compatible with vehicles of differing heights in a crash. The 2012 Insight also comes with dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags, front side airbags with passenger side occupant position detection system, and side curtain airbags.
