The new Insight uses an LDA3 (L engine family, "D" for the displacement... I assume that's something Honda uses for hybrid engines as it's typically the displacement x100 CCs, and A3 for the revision) engine, the '03-05 Civic Hybrid used an LDA1, and the '06+ Civic Hybrid uses an LDA2. So while strictly true, the Civic engines should be nearly identical in design and function. I've looked at both of the Civic engines and seen the eight ignition coils on the valve cover.
