The engine for the Insight 1 liter 12 valve SOHC lean burn the produces 67 hp. The electric portion of the motor produces 13 hp. The Insight is a sub-compact model only produced as a two-seater car with a manual transmission. Finally it was offered a CVT transmission which became very popular.

The engine is a 3 cylinder lightweight build using aluminum, magnesium and plastic to keep weight down to a minimum. The electric portion of the motor serves more than 1 function. It will assist the car to increase power to equal a 1.5 liter engine. Also, the electric motor will act as a generator and charge the batteries for the car and it is used as the starter for the gasoline engine.
