just curious for most bros here who own the white insight, is it difficult to take care of the car? in terms of dirt etc?

same as bro mitmivec, should get grey or dynoblue. Hard to take care. Maybe need to do coating to protect it.

I experience something new last week. My battery IMA battery is totally flat during traffic jam. Although the car totally stop, the Electric engine is trying to charge the battery itself, can hear the electric engine running, the assist meter also showing it is charging. I thought something wrong. Anyone had experience this?

This is interesting. So far never face this problem.

Hi fellow insighter,

Just want to find out what was the package you guys opt for when first paying booking for this car, I just paid booking to the SA since he offered me 1k discount and a full tank of fuel then the other SA tried to undercut sale by telling me i should be getting 12 months free service and V-kool elite + RM500 discount.

No lar.. the most you can go is, 700 I believe. It took about RM 55~60 for a full tank.
Or RM 93 full tank for 97.

We're talking about 32-35 liter max. X 20.
700 max...

Ok, seems like the total fuel tank is 40 liter, so guess 800 is possible.. But, I've never ran/refill until that extreme..
Refilling when the lights is up gave me like 32-35 liters...

Anyone refilled 40 liters before or did 800km before? That's like really running until the tank's empty right?

In U.S. cycle, the 2012 Honda Insight Hybrid will be able to provide at least 46 mpg. In fuel economy comparison, the 2011 model is rated at 40 mpg city and 43 mpg highway.
http://carguideblog.com/20243/2012-honda-i...g-improvements/

10-15% additional fuel savings on the facelifted insight :'( 46 vs 40....

Anyway, the official stated milleage for insight is 18.28km/l for highway... so those of us getting 20 on average city+highway.. that's really good figure already!

Also, auto cruise, how often do you make use of it?
Any possible cons to using the auto cruise multiple times in a trip?

Just using my feet only to maintain a constant speed is not very efficient, as it'll go +- 2km mostly... and it goes into acceleration/recharging mode much more often than I intended..

As a result,

I'm starting to use cruise whenever possible, in roads that'll allow for at least 10 seconds stretch... in city driving. What about you guys? How often you use the cruise mode? Guess most of you are in KL, n in highway, cruise is definitely used. How about city driving? Got cruise?

i only use auto cruise when at highway and not much car in front. in city drive i felt is dangerous to use and manual also state this. so pls dont try to save more petrol n danger others ppl life.

for highway, sometime i do feel is better to control by ourself. for example if u travel around ipoh highway with a lot of uphill one. the auto cruise will try to match the speed and it will rev the car quite high during climb hill. Else on normal straight road it always a nice feature to use the auto cruise, but dont fall into sleep then is ok already biggrin.gif

i think you should only use cruise control function when you are on highway only.
to me, it is quite dangerous to use it in city, with so many cars on the road sweat.gif

please dont use auto cruise when raining or when the road is flat smile.gif

because your car trying to maintain the speed if the road is wet your tyre might hydroplane and might cause accident

1st scenario
using fuel shell V-power RM62~ around 20 litres I think,
travel from JB to KL, with average speed mostly 140kph++, econ mode off,
stated in the car info panel, 15.6km/l

2nd scenario
using primax 95, econ mode on, cruise control mostly on,
but gain 19km/l

but for both scenario, based on fuel tank meter, the fuel use almost the same.  hmm.gif

by the way,
new white honda insight owner here, just got this car 3 days ago, but already travel 600km i think..  tongue.gif
working in JB..

I can join the club?  rclxm9.gif

Welcome rclxms.gif
If u maintain 160km/h, the number will be around 14.5 to 15.0 km/l

IMA battery usually will force charge once the meter showing half or less. Go for check up.

Maintain 75-80km/h without much stops, u can get 25km/l so theoretically 40liters can cover more than 800km

VSA and cruise should work simultaneously. Unless the driver panic.
