Honda Colors to Curb Speeding

The Japan version of the Insight will also be able to integrate with the optional Honda HDD InterNavi System, and combined with this system, the EDAS can give more advice on how to enhance fuel economy while driving, specifically by looking through a driver’s history and suggesting driver-specific changes. I can’t wait to see the new Insight with EDAS in the spring of 2009.
