It's rumored that Mazda's Miata replacement will be a Hybrid 1.6L that
generates about 170hp and weighing about 2800 pounds. Considering that
the Insight was the first Hybrid to hit the market, I would think
there's ample room for improvements. Improvements that can make it more
sporting...

If Honda stops making the Insight, it will definitely be a car to be
remembered. If Honda offered a battery pack replacement at a reasonable
price (around 3.5 grand). I probably would bite the bullet and get one.
I'd hate to lose out on that classic interior and the aluminum chassis.

I'd still take an older Civic VX hatchback. Amazing real-world mileage
and actually can fit four people.
