Sounds great for the masses, it looks to be well suited for just getting in and driving "normal" for most people ie brutal on economy. My dad test drove my insight last night for the first time and I watched in dismay as my avg trip economy dropped from 64.8mpg to 62.4mpg over the course of a few miles, all stop and and start, violently plowing through gears, slamming on brakes.
Personally, I would hate driving a car that did everything for me
BTW, it looks like electric only for reverse!
