Honda Reimagines the Insight as a 311-Mile Electric Crossover

Honda has transformed the Insight into a purely electric crossover with more than 311 miles of WLTC range, a 229 lb-ft front-mounted motor, and a Sport mode. The design borrows cues from Honda’s Chinese e:NS2 and rides on a 68.8 kWh pack that yields about 339 miles in CLTC, with a tech-forward interior that includes a 12.8-inch touchscreen, Bose audio, head-up display, and Chinese-market touches like a perfume dispenser and fewer climate controls. Production location isn’t disclosed, and the model will go on sale in Japan this spring with reservations starting March 19, amid expectations it could be exported from China to other markets.
