Even on the EPA's website Fuel Economy of the 2000 Honda Insight, it doesn't mention an automatic transmission.
It does mention a 2006 automatic here: Gas Mileage of 2006 Vehicles by Honda.
Of course, the epa's numbers are always undershot. I'd be curious to know what a conservative driver could get out of an automatic 1st gen insight. |
The CVT wasn't introduced in America until MY2001. Also, they didn't give it lean burn, so the performance is not that exciting (assuming 60mpg on a good day doesn't excite you).
