What is the IMA system?
IMA is Honda’s name for the hybrid gasoline/electric system employed in the Insight. The IMA system incorporates the electric motor/generator, the battery pack, and a lot of control circuitry that controls when power is supplied to or taken from the electric motor, controls charging of the high-voltage battery pack, and converts the electricity from one form to another.
