I friend of mine has and drives his 1999 Honda Insight as his commuter vehicle.



He get 60 MPH even today. The battery pack is dead. He has to pull the fuse to the system to get it to start and run, and withing a few minutes the error lights come back on, so he is running on just gasoline. He plans to maybe pull the battery pack and guys on the internet have figured out how to test each cell of the pack, and replace the bad cells. He said it is a slow and tedious process. He said people ask him more questions about it than any of his Porsches. Many people ask if he built the car himself, as they have never seen one like it.
