Hybrid technology is all the rage these days – amongst virtually all the major car manufacturers.

Each major car maker has its own claims to fame from its history, but perhaps the major manufacturer that deserves the most credit when it comes to being responsible for the development of the hybrid concept is Honda.

That’s because the manufacturer has been developing its technology in this direction for almost three decades now – and truly pioneered hybrid technology. Recently, the company introduced its fourth hybrid car – the all-new Honda Insight.

In fact, the first Honda Insight became on of the world’s first commercially available hybrid vehicles back in 1999.

A Honda hybrid uses two different sources of power working tin unison to drive the vehicle; a small, fuel-efficient petrol engine – and an electric motor. The battery that powers the electric motor is continually recharged as the car moves along, specifically; charging each time the car brakes or slows down.

So with help from the electric motor, the petrol engine doesn’t need to work anything like as hard, and nor does your wallet. This is because the hybrid car’s fuel economy is excellent, and the hybrid reduces harmful CO2 emissions. The cars also decrease emissions of nitrous oxide (NOx) and particulates that adversely affect the quality of the air we all breathe.

In 2009, Honda introduced its second-generation Insight based on an all-new, five passenger, five-door, hybrid platform – which the company also later used for the Honda CR-Z.

The insight’s design, its affordability and, of course, its amazing fuel efficiency combine to make it Honda’s best family car for the modern, “green” family.

Deciding which is the best family car can be something of a balancing act between conflicting opinions, different factors and, well, something of a nightmare for those of us who don’t want to spend our days poring over statistics in magazines, or online reviews.

At the same time, we all want to make a smart choice to keep our families safe and transported in comfort. And an ever-increasing number of us are simultaneously concerned about protecting the environment.

One excellent potential choice for families trying to balance the best of all worlds is undoubtedly the new Honda Insight.

Honda has always had an enviable reputation for reliability – and with the Insight, Honda lovers can also enjoy a warm feeling of being environmentally friendly. Why? Because the Insight is also a hybrid.

The car was designed to make hybrid technology more affordable to a wide range of family buyers. The new Insight, introduced in 2010, was a complete change from its predecessor’s two-seater configuration. The 2010 version is a five passenger, five door hybrid vehicle that includes the fifth generation of Honda’s Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid powertrain. The Insight’s wedge-shaped body is specifically designed to assist aerodynamics – so reducing drag to maximise fuel economy.

Perhaps most importantly for many families, the Insight is also one of the most affordable of family hybrids available – both on purchase price and running costs.

In fact, the official UK fuel efficiency data for the Honda Insight is a very respectable 61.4 mpg on the urban cycle, rising to 67.3 mpg in the extra urban cycle whilst the CO2 emissions rating is an impressive 101g/km.

In short, the Honda Insight offers a little of everything for the environmentally concerned family.

Auto insurance is considered as the license to take the car on the road. You cannot drive your car until and unless you have the required auto insurance otherwise it is considered illegal in many states. The insurance laws protect you in case of an accident and cover all your medical bills and other damages. However the states set a limit to the coverage of insurance beforehand. The minimum insurance varies from one state to another, the information of which can be provided by your insurance agent. In case of any accidents, if you are found without auto insurance you can be even send to jail apart from the fines.

There are a plethora of different types of auto insurance available. The policies vary depending upon the requirements of the person who is purchasing the policy. The different kinds of policies include property damage liability, comprehension coverage, and bodily injury liability etc. The insurance policy can be divided into five different sections.

The first amongst all is declaration. This section of the policy holds the information about the drivers in the house. It also contains the entire information about the vehicle like its make, model number its identification number etc. it also contains details about your policy. It describes the kind of policy you hold, its limit etc. it is of utmost importance that you provide all the information genuine otherwise it can create a problem for you later while filing a claim.

The next is the coverage part section that discusses the limits of your policy in detail. It basically tells you what the insurance company owes you. The third section is the exclusions that outline the policy’s limitations. The fourth section is conditions that discuss the legality of the policy. The last section is the definition that is of more use to the holder. One can know about the different terms used in the policy.

If you are interested in buying a policy then you must ask for auto insurance quotes. These quotes can help you to save hundreds of dollars from your pocket. You must compare the different prices as they may vary significantly. However, doing this all by yourself or with the help of a local agent can eat up a lot of time. So you may instead take the online auto insurance quotes. There are a number of websites that ask you to fill up a registration form wherein they ask you for some basic details and then provide you the most competent rates available in the market.

The cost of car insurance in Ireland has become more expensive over the last few years, but there are ways that motorists can reduce their premiums and here are a few examples.

Pay more excess – the phrase excess refers to the amount that you will have to pay towards any insurance claim that is made before your insurer pays the rest. If your excess is €300 and your claim is for €900, then the insurance company will only pay €600. The higher the excess, the cheaper and less of a risk it will be for the insurer, so if you opt for paying more excess, your premium will be reduced. This should only be done if you can afford to pay the value of the excess in the event that you have to make a claim.

Reduce the cover – the law states that all motorists must have third-party insurance to cover the cost of any damage that you cause to someone else or the property following an accident. Most people will add fire and theft protection to this sort of policy. If you have a comprehensive motor insurance policy, where the cost to your own car is covered, you have to remember that the insurer will only pay out what they believe the car is worth at the time. Therefore, if your car is old or has a low value, having comprehensive cover might not be worth the extra cost and the cheaper third-party option should be considered.

These are just a couple of simple tips that could end up saving you hundreds of euro each year.

The first hour of today’s Le Mans 24 Hour race was marred by a huge accident for Audi’s Scottish driver Allan McNish – McNish’s Audi R18 collided with a slower Ferrari GT, driven by Frenchman Anthony Beltoise, careered across a gravel trap and smashed into a barrier.

“I have absolutely no idea what happened. I was on my second lap after a pit stop. I didn’t even see the Audi coming up behind me,” a visibly irritated Beltoise said on pit lane, waiting for his car to be repaired.

Visual—taking your eyes off the road.
Manual—taking your hands off the wheel.
Cognitive—taking your mind off of what you’re doing.

Displayed 24 percent more variation in following distance as their attention shifted between road and device.
Were 19 percent slower to resume normal speed after braking.
Were more likely to crash.
