Dear customers,

In recent months, due to natural disasters in Japan and Thailand, Honda has experienced shortages of supply across several models.

Globally, Honda has been working tirelessly to resume production to fulfil customer orders and meet demand.

Thanks to these outstanding efforts, we’re delighted to announce that fresh stock has already started arriving, and will continue to improve in the coming months.

The best place to find out about availability of your model of choice is your local Honda dealer.

We’ve also just launched an all-new Civic sedan this March; and you might have heard, our new sporty Hybrid, the CR-Z, has been named 2011 Wheels Car of the Year.

One judge said: "A hybrid that's fun to drive... if this is the future, I'm there." We couldn't agree more!

We’re well on track for a big 2012, and all that remains is for you to join us! So why not order a brochure, or sign up to our eNewsletter; and we’ll be in touch with more updates soon.

Best Regards,


Stephen Collins
Director

What if as we drove, a protective bubble kept us safe?

Translucent and tough, it politely bounces us off other cars upon impact and cushions everyone with a gentle hug. Sadly, this isn't the case… yet. In the meantime, we've employed an array of safety features for the Honda Insight with one thing in mind – be the bubble.

ANCAP 5-star rating

Honda Insight 5-star ANCAP safety rating

The Honda Insight has been rated one of Australia's safest cars, having achieved the maximum 5-star rating in independent crash testing from ANCAP. The Insight is a shining example of Honda's commitment to overall vehicle safety, complementing Honda's long-standing in-house safety testing which seeks to improve real world safety.

 
 
 

Front, side and curtain airbags

The Insight is equipped with a comprehensive set of 6 airbags as standard. Upfront airbags protect the driver and passenger in more ways than one. Not only do they provide cushioning in the event of a collision, they're also designed to minimise any injury that could be caused by the airbags themselves. Full-length curtain airbags round off the Insight's impressive airbag package.

 

Crash protection engineering

Honda's commitment to safety technology is showcased in the Honda Insight. Should the unfortunate occur, Honda has you covered with its Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) and G-Force Control (G-CON®) technologies.

The ACE body structure helps to increases impact compatibility with different-sized vehicles and, in frontal collisions, helps redirect energy safely around the passenger cabin.

Honda's G-CON® technology helps improve driving safety by controlling the forces of a collision's impact.

Stability control

Insight's advanced Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system combines individual brake control, engine power and Traction Control (TCS) to maintain vehicle stability in critical situations, such as when cornering hard or driving in bad weather.

To see how VSA works, hit play to see a demonstration.

Handy anti-lock braking

When you suddenly brake, the Insight's Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) work together to ensure you don't lose steering control.

3pt safety seatbets

No matter where you’re seated, we’ve got you covered. Every seat in the Insight has three-point (lap and sash) safety seatbelts, offering comprehensive lap and shoulder restraint. 

Active head restraints

Active front head restraints provide an additional level of safety support, moving up and forward to absorb any impact from a rear collision, helping minimise the risk of whiplash and neck injury to you and your passenger.

Seatbelt reminder

Ensure that you’re ready to go with the Insight’s seatbelt reminder. It politely reminds the driver to buckle their seatbelt as they turn on the ignition. It will also alert you to seatbelts that become unbuckled while in transit.

Alarm system

The Insight is fitted with a security alarm system so you can rest assured knowing your car and belongings
