Can you believe it has been TEN years since the first Honda Fit went on sale in the U.S.? A lot has changed since then. Thankfully in the case of this little hatch, that hasn't been to its detriment.
Available in LX, EX, EX-L & EX-L Navi with both a 6 speed manual and CVT transmission there are many flavors to be had with the Fit. Regardless of which suits your taste best all of them come packed with cargo hauling ingenuities.
Honda has once again included their genius Magic Seat in the rear which allows you to stow tall items without a hitch. Fold down the 60/40 split rear seatback and you'll find a whopping 52.7 cubic feet of cargo space to help lug that yard sale treasure home with ease.
Also at ease is the hit to your wallet both initially and long term. With a starting MSRP of just under $16,000 and up to 40 MPG on the highway, combined with Honda's envious reliability record - it's safe to say that you won't be crying as the gas prices rise.
All of this doesn't come at the sacrifice of safety or convenience either. With available heated leather seats, a power moonroof, touchscreen Display Audio® with backup camera, smart entry with push button start, auto on/off headlights and a 5-Star overall safety score there are even more reasons to love the Fit. The question is, which flavor do you pick?
Grappone Honda is located in Bow, NH just south of Concord and only 20 minutes from Manchester. Conveniently located at the intersection of I89/I93 - come see why we are Driven to Amaze!

I still have my 2008 Honda Fit and its still a great little car! I can only Imagine this is a mighty fine Machine. Love Love!!! the Honda Fits and i highly recommend them.
I still have the same. It's our little secret. :)
Ive had a 2008 and currently a 2013 and im actually ready for a new one, great commuter! Wish i could get an EX-L with manual transmission
Thanks for posting this video! I really want a Honda Fit, so I am trying to do as much research as possible
Great review and info really enjoy it
HONDA I LOVE IT. 💖
With the CVT, what are the engine RPM's (regular and 'eco' mode) when driving highway 65 and 70 MPH? Thanks.
A little over 2000
@@lot2196 Incredible! It's a crying shame Honda discontinued this affordable car in the U.S.! Not much consumer choice for affordable vehicles anymore.
How well does a grown man fit in that car? Do people over 6' tall still have legroom and headroom in the rear seats?
Surprisingly enough Carl Miller, yes, they do. Obviously it will be less than what I have in the backseat, but there is a genuinely impressive amount of room in the back. I definitely recommend checking it out for yourself, I didn't really believe it until I got back there.
Thanks very much for the reply. My wife and I may took a look at one of these and your review was really helpful. Cheers!
Best wishes!
I am 6,2 and yes this is one of the few cars which is comfortable for my height.You get a good legroom aswell as a good headroom.
great review. one of the best so far. i actually sold my 2015 Subaru WRX and I'm planning to get the fit/jazz for a more practical lifestyle.
Honestly any small suv and crossover does not really offer much bigger space inside. I tried to sit at different car at autoshow. You have to go to midsize suv in order to feel a good amount of space gain over this honda fit which is a subcompact car. That saying buy the fit save you money and you still get great room and space of a small SUV and crossover.
i have no problem with space inside the Rav4 hybrid, and it's our family vehicle. but the Honda Fit is nice.
those rear cargo covers cost $250 here at my dealership. such a rip off.
Nice colour fit .❤️
1:00 " theres a very small hump in the middle for the exhaust or whatever" 😂😂👌 made my day mate.
Not to take away from your review abilities I mean fantastic video but the hump is not for the exhaust.
6/29/2020----Great review and totally accurate. Thanks, so much. I have had my Fit-EX-L, 2017 for 2 years and 6 months and it is a blast. Very cool, spacious, and lots of light. I am 5'7" tall with really long legs and have plenty of room for more. I love the sunroof and here is one thing you might want to know. The reviewer mentioned a noisy cabin because of ALL the glass. But this gal has never heard ANY road noise because my CD player is on full volume any time the car is moving. I do wish it had more speakers as I would like it louder than 40 but as the reviewer said, it is a satisfying sound but nothing mind-blowing ( like the Bose speakers in a Mazda. Wow! )This is my third Honda, since 2007. With regular maintenance, once a year only, none of them have had any failures or needed any repairs. I love the open feel in this car so much better than my previous 2013 Civic, and before that, my 2007 CR-V--EX-L. Go, Honda!
Love my 2020 Fit EX! Great car for the money, and a blast to drive. Hate that Honda is discontinuing bringing new model years to the US. Long live the Fit! #Fitastic 🙂❤️
How is the bluetooth audio quality when on a call? Does it have decent noise cancellation for phone calls.
I pulled 44 mpg in an lx on highway.....bet you could get 40 in the ex easy....
Blue Bird I get 42 mpg average with my ex.
3:56 You are a very observant driver, even while speaking into a camera.
I'm here cause of Danny duncan
I'm very impressed with the car, the review, and with the guy presenting it. Now, I want to see everything he presents of the other six cars I'm considering buying!! New, here, but new sub :-)
Sucks that the top model only gets the CVT. I hope this changes soon in a future model.
You can get the 6 Speedo and option in most of the stuff in the top trims...
Funny because in México (Where the car is built for the US) you cant option the Touch Screen system with the 6 Speed like the US Can which is fucked up as they force you to the top trim level to get stuff the US can get on the Mid-tier model.
Ничего не понял. Но Хонде жирный лайк.
Just have to say that I watch the reviews only to see him, he is really good at what he does... and really good looking too, wish he was single.
lmao
What is his name? Can't hear it clearly. 😂
and ur cute too )

whats the discounted price for a exl?? about $19K
Mitul it would depend on supply/demand in the area you live. In our area of NH they are all right around MSRP as they are a hot seller with their excellent storage capacity and stellar fuel economy. Best thing to do is check around!

You do not see this car as nearly often as accord and civic, but the price is pretty firm around MSRP. Weird.
Just discovered your reviews on UA-cam. You are a great presenter and provide loads of info. Hope you keep them coming :-)
Andrew K, NI UK yes I agree...his reviews are so very well done! easy to follow and watch and gives a lot of the necessary information!
Yes, and I love the scenery too, especially the snow! Merry Christmas :)
Wish they could offer the manual with the top trim.
Great review! Thanks
does the 2017 model have improved seats? I read that the 2016 seats are dealbreaker bad.
cup holder by the steering wheel that has been a thing for a long time my 2007 toyota yaris has one on each side
Looking to pick one of theses up. Had a 2008 Fit and it was awesome. How do you add the suggested video on mobile? Recent UA-cam app update?
It was a recent update, UA-cam added the ability to overlay click boxes to the end of videos - it automatically formats them for both computer and mobile.
I miss my honda fit, if the fit has better seats, I would never trade it.
Love it, needs more power though and a much better transmission.
Does the paddle shifter basically put the transmission in manual? Imean you can go up and down the gear? then it doesnt automatically shift the gear unless you tap the paddle shifter?
Since the Fit has a CVT there are technically no gears. When you use the paddle shifters it changes the ratios to act like 6 preset "gears". Once you hit redline it will change to the next appropriate ratio.
Nice!... what is that plastic part that came out 8:22, some kind of wind turbulence disruptor?
You are correct HeronCalaris. Without that diffuser you get the awful buffeting noise in the cabin, this helps to eliminate it.
She colors is amazing! Come to Brazil!!!!
A really good review-do you think that sales of the HR-V will take away from the FIt? I am hoping that Hondawill keep both available.
Doubtful, I am confident that the Fit will be around for a while.
3698s Hrv looks like a regular suv. This fit looks much cute.
Does the ACC has low speed follow?
The EX-L is supposed to have 6 speakers. Did you test sound quality?
I had the radio on, but it was not loud nor for very long. From the experience I have with Honda product, the stereo system is typically satisfying, not mind blowing.
But how does it rally? Haha
HA HA.....Gloomy Pennsylvania.....Now I remember why I left there
This is Concord, NH
Beautiful but in Brazil very very expensive.
Sorry to hear that Danilo Venancio, these are great cars. Hopefully the price comes down for you.
It's a great entry level vehicle for it's kind. Very good on fuel, can handle the snow very much. The seat on the 2017 was a lot nicer than the oldest model, very reliable suv. I love it
