    The Chronicle-Herald (Nova Scotia): Subcompact hybrid achieves insane fuel economy, fits four humans fine, is fun to drive.

    Honda priced the Insight quite high - $23,700 to start in 2010 and if you wanted traction control and stability control, you got nav and bluetooth as well for $27,500. (among other things like a glove box light). They recently better packaged the Insight for 2012 (just the base LX model with a few more standard equipment). It's a lost cause compared to the CR-Z.




    Anyway, back to the review. It's rare that a journalist would beat the official Canadian ratings but given what we've seen here on PriusChat, it seems like the c can easily match the government ratings.
