VSC light was blinking...
maybe did wheel spin on some "lopak air" there and the car detected something was wrong and activated VSC..
but, what exactly VSC does anyway?

Prius c is a different segment car. Its a jazz competitor and we best look at the spec sheet before deciding.

For sure, people looking to get a hybrid will take a hard look on prius c. Not like last year... we dun have a choice... but only Insight. Added on January 10, 2012, 8:22 am That the CVT character. Happened to me as well. Anyway not regret! |

I still think insight 2012 looks nicer. But performance wise, I'm not sure as Prius c should b using the same technology as Prius which is already very good (correct me if I'm wrong).

The VSA probably saved your life/injuries or your car from a hefty makeover VSC light was blinking... maybe did wheel spin on some "lopak air" there and the car detected something was wrong and activated VSC.. but, what exactly VSC does anyway? Means as you say just now, your car will lose control/over/understeer and u'll most likely crash to the sides without it. Interesting to see fellow insighter saying their VSA getting activated.... This alone is worth the extra 10k, vs city which iirc don't have VSA! |

Even normal driving, Insight handles better than average sedan. With VSA even better. I remembered triggering TSC more frequently on my old Altis compared to VSA on the Insight.
