Hey all,
So, I'm in a bit of a decision pickle. I'm a college student with a relatively well paying job, and I'm looking at hybrid/plug-in hybrid options. As you can tell, I favor the Insight over the other cars I have driven so far. I am comparing the Insight EX to the Insight Touring, KIA Niro Plug-In, and the Audi A3 E-Tron. They're all super different, but I honestly like the Insight the best in terms of style, ride and handling, and feautres for the price.
But, I love the idea of being able to plug in my car to run a few miles gasoline free, and if the Insight had a plug-in option I would already have the car in the parking lot. I also like the hatchback body style the best, so it's a super close race between the Niro and the Insight. Surprisingly, the only thing holding me back on the Niro is the lack of LED headlights on lower trims. My college is in a pretty dark place, so good headlights are a must, plus LED's look better. I do a lot of highway driving into cities, so I am not sure which one would get better gas mileage overall. I do not have regular access to a plug, so it would just be an added bonus. Any insight (get it?) that the wonderful people on this forum can provide would be immensely helpful.
