Expert Quotes:
40 mpg city, 43 highway
U.S. EPA
Our Insight has been averaging about 38 mpg so far, putting it between the Civic Hybrid at 37 mpg overall and our current mileage champ, the outgoing Prius, at 44 mpg
Consumer Reports
With EPA ratings of 40 mpg city, 43 highway, the Insight isn't nearly as fuel-efficient as the first-generation Insight two-seater, or as the Toyota Prius, which sports ratings of 51/48. But after the Prius, the Insight is tied with Honda's own Civic Hybrid for the runner-up position for 2011.
Conclusion
The 2011 Honda Insight's 40+ mpg ratings make it one of the greenest vehicles on the market—but it trails the Prius by a distance.
