The federal government gave the 2010 Insight a top score of five stars in front and side driver crash tests. The Insight received a lower score of four stars in front passenger, side rear passenger and rollover two wheel drive crash tests. The government has adopted stricter safety ratings for 2011, so when the industry updates these scores, we’ll bring them to you because they are likely to change. In comparison, the Toyota Prius received good scores from the federal government, getting four stars in front driver, side driver, front passenger and rollover tests. The Prius only received five stars in side driver crash tests.
There are several reviews, polls, and Insight vs Prius arguments on the Web. I wouldn't read into them too much, although some of them do offer valuable information. However, you should shop and do your own research on what hybrid car to purchase.
