The Insight pairs a three-cylinder gasoline engine with a brushless electric motor located on the crankshaft. Behind the driver's and the passenger's seats there is a set of 144 V NiMH batteries. Under heavy acceleration, the electric motor provides additional power while during deceleration, the motor acts as a generator and recharges the batteries using a process called regenerative braking. The Insight can attain an EPA rating of 60 MPG City and 66 MPG Highway when equipped with the 5-speed manual transmission.For 2005, no significant changes were made.
