KPCC & Honda Insight giveaway

The innovative Insight gas-electric hybrid has been recognized by a diverse group of organizations for its remarkable accomplishments. Every year since its introduction, Insight has been found to be America's most fuel-efficient car by the EPA. The Sierra Club was moved to bestow upon the Insight their first Excellence in Environmental Engineering Award. And in a repeat performance, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy once again has declared the Honda Insight to be the "Greenest Vehicle" among all 2003 models.
