There's a lot of variation between hybrid vehicles. Some are named "hybrids" because they rely on battery power to propel or assist in propelling the vehicle. A hybrid vehicle might plug-in to charge, and some hybrids have regenerative braking. Some hybrid models have both a high-voltage battery and a conventional 12-volt battery. With so many differences between hybrid cars, trucks, and SUVs, your 2001 Honda Insight needs a professional who knows hybrids. We're here for you. Your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care location is ready to offer conventional and low voltage services for all hybrid vehicles, including your 2001 Honda Insight.
