On the Insight the CVT isn't all that reliable. Nor does it comes with Lean Burn. Other than that for an engine like the Insight a CVT would be a good match provided it could keep the RPMs up while driving especially during a shift. The gears on the 5spd are so widely spaced that you drop out of the power band each shift
