In keeping with the car's green theme, appropriate driver aids are integrated into the vehicle's control systems to encourage gentler driving behaviours. The Ecological Drive Assist System (Eco Assist) combines functions such as a driver-activated ECON mode and real-time fuel economy display to help the drive optimize fuel consumption in a journey.
Safety-wise, the Insight has a 6-star rating by JNCAP for driver safety, and 5-star for passenger safety. Standard safety gear includes dual airbags, ABS, EBD, active head rests, and pedestrian friendly front crumple zones. The chassis design features Honda's Advanced Compatibiliy Engineering (ACE) structure, which reduces injury potential for occupants of both the Insight and also the colliding vehicle.
