    If you went Insight EX in the US, you'd pay $26,155 with one of the upgraded color options. And as an owner of an Accord LX, you will be very happy with the Insight EX. The Insight's most awesome value proposition in my opinion is that you can get the Touring version ($30,185), which is basically only a slightly smaller car than an Accord Touring Hybrid ($37,590), with nearly all the same features of the Accord Touring Hybrid, for $7500 less, while getting about 11 mpg better fuel economy than the Accord Touring HYBRID! This is undoubtedly the genius money play in the Honda lineup. You still get leather, still get moonroof, still get upgraded audio, still get heated seats. The only things you don't get on the Insight Touring that you would on the Accord Touring Hybrid are: Head Up Display (don't care), Ventilated Seats (would be very nice in South FL), and Parking Sensors (don't care). But for $7500 (plus taxes of $525 on that $7500, so call it $8000) I would be more than fine with the Insight without it ventilating my seats or ventilating my wallet. You might feel manlier in your heavy Mercedes status symbol getting 31 mpg at best or up high in your SUV getting 26 mpg at best, but these are survival times economically speaking, and the Honda Insight is such a smart option for staying afloat and getting around inexpensively with all the comforts.

    No mention of warranty differences, I think that’s also a BIG factor. Hyundai offers the best in the states, 5 years unlimited miles roadside assistance , life time battery warranty, 10 year 100k and 3 years of free maintenance. Toyota and Honda don’t come close in that department.

    Great video, thank you! A couple of things that are missing and worth mentioning, I believe, are:
    1. Hyundai seem pretty confident in their reliability of this generation and give you a significantly better warranty than the Toyota one, actually TWICE as good in some parts.
    2. At the dealership, the prices are not so comparable anymore. Toyota adds a huge markup to these cars, and are very adamant about it, while Hyundai, being less than the top name in the game, are willing to be more flexible to be competitive. So, while MSRP is pretty similar, I would recommend going to test drive the cars and get actual prices. ESPECIALLY if you have a trade in and you plan to finance, which gives Hyundai more room to play.

    • @carhelpcorner
      @carhelpcorner  3 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      If you look at the market values of 6-10 year old Corolla and Civics versus the Elantra, they do tend to command higher prices. Both the Corolla and Civic still have that superior reputation for long-term reliability which increases their desirability on the used car market. I'd say the only time resale value doesn't matter is if you plan to buy and keep until the wheels fall off.

      I dunno about Canada but in the states people will step over their own mother to buy a Toyota or Honda, even with 100k+ miles on it. The resale value for Honda in particular is insane; it actually borders on being a legitimate investment. The same cannot be said about Hyundai or most American-made cars.

    I test drove both Corolla Hybrid and Elantra Hybrid and other than "perceived" high reliability of Toyota there is not a single thing I liked about Toyota. After adding dealer markups on Corolla BASE trim LE hybrid FWD with convenience package, I was saving less than $2k over a fully loaded top of the line Elantra Hybrid Limited trim. With Elantra limited, I am getting much roomier (Elantra back seat rivals that of Camry in terms of roominess) car with TON of useful/luxury features (Heated and ventilated leather seats with memory function , dual zone climate control, dual 10.5 inch screens, power sun/moon roof, cabin ambient lighting, Bose sound system, digial key with ton of remote features, much more sportier looking exterior, 3 years of free maintenance, 5 years bumper to bumper and 10 years powertrain warranty), ton of safety features). Overall, a much more car for my $ than Corolla. Now coming to reliability, Hyundai has poor "History" but they have come a long way and they are consistenly rated close to Toyota. In fact, 2023 JD power reliabilty ratings have placed Hyundai at #8 out of total 33 car brands, which is right after Toyoya placed at #7. At last, one needs to understand that every car brand (including Toyota) will have some dudes and you take calculated risks. Hyundai's super long warranty coverage made this choice easier for me. If you are also in the market for a compact sedan, just don't go blindly by one specific brand in mind. Go and take the test drive, feel and experience different cars before spending 25-30 grands. There are better cars out there with much better value.

      They're not the same. The Honda has a physical clutch that engages at highway speeds, connecting the engine directly to the wheels. It's kinda like driving in sixth gear. At lower speeds the engine drives a generator, and electric motors actually move the vehicle. In the Toyota the engine and two electric motors are meshed together with a planetary gear set, and the system doesn't have any clutches or direct drive gears. Both vehicles are able to move on electric power alone for short distances. To the average motorist, both hybrid systems function like a standard CVT.

    Hyundai provides piece of mind with their 10 year 100,000 miles power train warranty. In the states it's pronounced uh-lawn-truh. I was really hoping to find a video comparing the Elantra Hybrid to the Ioniq Hybrid, but you've given me a couple more cars to consider. I am a driver for many local dealerships. I am a fan of Hyundai's technology, though my 2012 Elantra Limited doesn't even have a back up camera. I was hoping for more detailed specs in your video; cabin size, car length, city and highway gas mileage, wheel size, and the way they handle on the road. I would have preferred less focus on the reputations and costs of the vehicles. Hyundai's Warranty makes up for it's lack of experience. Honda's no transmission seems to imply cheaper repairs, and the Corolla? I'm sure all 3 are great cars, but all I got from your video was how similar they are, their reputations, Hyundai's electronics look better, and Honda doesn't have a transmission. Thanks for that much though.

      Hyundai's warranty will not cover the DCT transmission failure. Once DCT fails due to overheating or improper use of the clutch, the dealer considers it "normal wear and tear" and thus will not repair or replace under warranty. At least that's how what I've been told. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I bought a Honda Insight in 2018. After driving I was getting nervous and was losing consciousness and strength in my right hand. I complained to the dealer and Honda company in California but they did not listen. While driving I was getting unconscious, called an ambulance, and had to check the cause, but they couldn’t find any heart trouble or brain trouble or tumors, etc. But later a friend who is an engineer told me that this kind of car is health hazardous. I found out that many have complained about Honda cars for the same problems in the past. After I kept complaining, the Honda dealer asked me to come and promised to change the car. When I went to get another car, he took away 8000 dollars from the faulty car to take it back and sold the other car for more than the price. They never confessed that Honda Insight is a faulty mode and has been discontinued many, many times in the past. I was very hurt. I thank God that I survived, even though they cheated and lied to me. They also wanted me to sell the car to someone, but I couldn’t. I love others as I love myself. I was collapsing. Then how can I give to others? I told them that dishonesty will not bring blessings. But they were so cruel and did not listen, seeing I was a senior and a woman they took advantage of me. They never write when I complain but only talk on the phone. We purchase laws to protect, but we cannot purchase righteous God. Plus, he doesn't care if you are Honda or Toyota. He will fight my battle. I am a missionary living with little income and this giant Honda stole my money, but I tell you my God will give me sevenfold plus back.

Backup camera is even better then my accord experience. It is a bit off a dog on a small mountain pass. However on straight mostly flat roadways, it's very quiet and a nice ride. I bought the EX-L trim pkg. I would've bought the touring had it been available. Not sure if that would've made it more powerful.def miss the bells and whistles of my Accord EX-L. And the extra room.

    So, now with gasoline here in the U.S. nearing or above $4.00 per U.S. gallon what type of miles per gallon does
    each vehicle receive? I'm sure gas prices in Canada are as high or even higher. As far as reliability goes our 2010 Prius is nearing 200,000 miles, pretty much trouble free. I have to agree Toyota Hybrids are more reliable than the others. Also current Toyota Hybrids have no engine belts to replace and less expensive to maintain. We currently have a 2020 Highlander Hybrid AWD, a 4,500 lb vehicle, that easily averages 35 mpg per U.S. gallon, with summer sometimes over 40 MPG.

    Bought the 2023 Elantra Luxury Hybrid in Canada several months ago. You failed to mention that it features full independent suspension on all 4 wheels, which greatly assists handling. The power train is lifted directly out of the Ioniq, where it has served flawlessly since 2016. Hyundai designs and builds their own transmissions, so they have full control over the quality and capabilities. This is not true of Toyota, for example, whose transmissions are built by Aisin-Warner. Hyundai also metalurgically designs their own steel, which is why their vehicles typically have 5 star collision ratings while still being quite light. I really dug into the product, and I came away convinced that Hyundai is tremendously undervalued - and underappreciated.

      The Hybrid model from Honda is typically $1200 more than the gas version. Based on $4 per gallon price of gas, people that drive an average of 12-15k per year will save $400/year on gas for every 10 mpg saved.... so you'll typically break even in 30-36 months on a Hybrid. If you don't keep your cars that long or drive less miles, then a hybrid might not be worth it financially.
