2022 Honda Insight LX Redesign
The 2022 Honda Insight will be getting some cosmetic updates. The new model is based on the Honda Civic but has its own styling. The Insight sedan shares only its platform, roof, and rear panels with the Civic. The 2022 Honda Insight will have a new grille and sharper LED headlights. The manufacturer did not place any badges to indicate that it was a hybrid model, as they did before. Insight is very competitive and still well-recognized. We like the premium touches such as LED taillights, and 16-inch aluminum-alloy wheels.
Interior
The Honda Insight is a comfortable vehicle with a spacious, functional interior. This model is generally based on the Honda Civic model and shares many cues with it. According to the manufacturer, customers can expect a wide range of high-end materials. Insight’s hybrid system includes a battery pack under the rear seats. Insight LX is the most affordable model and offers great features. This trim features dual-zone automatic climate control and LED ambient lighting. It also has a 5-inch infotainment screen. It also includes adaptive cruise control and automatic emergency brake, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high beams.
The Insight EX has more standard features than the LX. The Insight EX has more standard features than the LX, including Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a better audio system. The Touring trim adds leather, heated seats, and Wi-Fi to a more luxurious cabin.
Hybrid System Details
The engine in the upcoming Honda Insight 2022 is the same as the previous model. The 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine produces 107 horsepower. This powertrain also uses the Atkinson cycle. It prioritizes efficiency overpower, as is common with hybrid vehicles.

It produces 129 horsepower when the electric motor is coupled with a lithium-ion rechargeable battery. The whole system produces 151 horsepower. The hybrid system also sends power to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Insight has an EV mode, which can travel up to 1 mile using only battery power. The current model’s combined fuel consumption is 55-MPG.
What’s new in the Honda Insight 2022?
The price of the 2022 Insight may not be as attractive as last year. The base LX model has been dropped by Honda, and the EX and Touring versions have seen slight price increases. However, Insight’s starting price is more than $2,000 less than the model last year for those with a tight budget. Although the Insight is based upon the Civic compact sedan, it has a more mature, refined exterior and interior. The Insight borrows the design of the latest Accord sedans front and rear. However, the details are smoother and less cluttered. The interior is uncluttered with a focus on well-coordinated materials.
Honda’s hybrid two-motor system in the 2022 Insight uses an inline-4 1.5-liter gas engine that produces 107 horsepower. It drives the smaller motor as a generator and the larger, 120-hp electric one powers the front wheels. The gas engine can also clutch to the wheels in certain circumstances. Although Insight is not fast, it is responsive and efficient. The Insight earns EPA combined ratings between 52 mpg and 48 mpg depending on which version you choose. This makes it one of the best-rated new sedans and one of the most efficient new cars if you don’t mind forgoing charge ports.

Although Insight is officially a 5-seater, it can be comfortably occupied by four adults. The 15.1 cubic feet of trunk space makes it one of the largest small sedans. Independent and federal testers give Insight five stars from NHTSA, and a Top Safety Pick+ award from IIHS. The Insight was updated last year with blind-spot monitors and rear cross-traffic alerts for EX and Touring trims. Every Insight comes with automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control.
