The center stack in those pics is definitely much simpler than that of the Accord or Pilot which can only be good. All that garbage going on in front of the driver's face is rather poorly done IMO. Even the owner of an Accord and Insight would be confused going from one to the other I think.

But as I was trying to say in my previous post, a Civic owner would feel right at home, since the two-tiered "garbage" display is virtually identical to the one in the current Civic. Perhaps Civic owners, and not Accord owners, are the target market for the Insight. The choice of the "Insight" name, which was previously associated with a minimalist two-passenger hybrid, suggests to me that the car isn't really aimed at Accord buyers.

Replying to: stephen987 (Nov 20, 2008 7:10 pm) Driving with a stick tranny would be a hassle too. Too many levels to look at. With an auto it wouldn't be as bad for me but I see where you're coming from. It's great if you love tech but could be annoying to those who don't. I'm guessing that's why the "youngster" Hondas have it and not the "old fart" Accord/Pilot/etc. My dad's '87 Taurus had an all digital dash and I loved it. But it did have the tach as a rising meter that ran up and around the speedo which was less confusing IMO.
