Among the tricked out sporty concepts that Honda will be displaying at the 2010 Tokyo Auto Salon is this Honda Insight Sports Modulo Concept. The theme for this Insight is basically “Exciting Eco”, which is a term I believe can also probably be applied to the new CR-Z, since that one actually has a manual transmission!
Other than the obvious bodykit bits, the Modulo concept kit for the Insight also includes components such as an A-pillar aero-form garnish, a new LED rear combination tail lamp, and air-split tail fin, and a rather interesting “quarter fin” for the wheels which you can see in the image above.
Look after the jump for a full hi-res gallery of the kitted Insight.

erm…looks very very weird…bmw is having this same problem with their new models
Looks a lot like the CR-Z with modulo kit. Those fins are KERS?
Now this car can appear in the fast and furious 5 lol. if this car can look this good with modulo parts, im sure cr-z would look much better!
Wheel is balanced?
wow, this is COOL !!! spaceship on the road,hehez
what's the function of those fins?
helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo nice car!

Looks like permanent wheel clamps!
i think this is fantastic.
I would take this insight anytime over the stupid ugly boring prius…. Honda as always refreshing…
ok,now that looks odd..
Hello ROBOCOP!!!
the fin on the wheel surface is very confusing…. do they spin along with the wheel?
must be good on aerodynamics that way without sacrificing brake temperature.
Identity crisis…. LOL
Finished or too much ideas???????
veyr high tech
Huh? The fins supposed to make you go faster? I would actually buy those wheels just to put on my proton!
It sure does make ANY car look interesting from the side.. lol
excuses..
wut does those fins do to the wheels..
seems not to make any sense at all..
sumone gotta tell the others of how does the fins work though.
Make-ups for Tokyo Auto Salons…some ah beng's workshop will copy the design for Honda City
BATMAN CAR…. ciplak batman punya kereta!!!!
I saw some ahbeng did this wing thing on his E60…fuyoh.. now honda also follow!
I think it get the tech from F1.
as in F1, its a wheel cover that potentially reduce air drag, there for adding aerodynamic efficiency.
One word, HIDEOUS…………………………………………………..
Alza is 10000000000000x better looking……………….
