With the A/C on AutoStop usually lasts disappointingly(*) short in the Insight, if it functions at all.
If I switch off the vents just before coming to a stop AutoStop will last pretty much indefinitely, even if I flip the vents back on immediately. But A/C won't work indeed.

I would not use an Insight for taxi services; the front passenger seat is decent enough but the bench is not (lacking leg- and headroom). For a frugal runaround it is hard to beat.

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