No real mountains over here, but it is a small country. There are lots of mountains within a days drive. I've been in the Alps and the Pyrenees. Not yet with the Insight, but I have no doubt that it will cope. The CVT makes sure you can use all the power the engine can produce when needed. Just don't watch the FE readout while doing so

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
