Honda Fit Overview

The 2020 model year is the last for Honda’s subcompact Fit in the U.S. although the a new fourth-generation model will continue to sell in other markets. The Fit goes out in style, with available Honda Sensing and a manual transmission (unfortunately they can’t be paired together). All four trim levels—LX, Sport, EX and EX-L—are powered by a 130-horsepower 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 114 pound-feet of torque and is paired to either the manual or a continuously variable transmission. The Fit is known for excellent handling, but acceleration can be is slow, particularly on the highway. The well-equipped Fit achieves 33 mpg in city driving and 40 mpg on the highway. With the standard manual transmission, it gets 29 mpg in city driving and 36 mpg on the highway.

Trim Specifications

The LX and Sport trims are the only ones to offer a manual transmission, but the six-speed CVT is available across the board. Opting for the CVT over the manual adds the Honda Sensing suite of advanced driver-assistance safety technology, which includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, road departure alert and adaptive cruise control. The Sport trim has 16-inch alloy wheels, chrome exhaust finishers and a 7-inch display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The EX adds Honda Sensing as standard regardless of transmission, and the top EX-L trim adds sporty yet premium heated seats with leather trim.

Honda Fit Generations

First Generation

2007 to 2008
The first Honda Fit arrived from Japan for the 2007 model year as a five-door fuel sipping hatchback powered by a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 109 horsepower. It could be paired with a five-speed manual or automatic transmission. The 2007 Fit achieved 33 mpg in city driving and 38 mpg on the highway with a five-speed manual transmission.

Second Generation

2009 to 2014
A complete remodel for the 2009 model year stretched the wheelbase and increased engine power to 117 horsepower. Average fuel economy continued to be roughly 30 mpg. The longer wheelbase allowed room for up to five passengers. The second-row “Magic Seat” allowed multiple configurations and up to 57.3 cubic feet of cargo room.

Third Generation

2015 to Present
Undergoing only minor changes between 2009 and 2014, the third-generation Honda Fit debuted for the 2015 model year. The 2020 model year will be the last for the Fit in the U.S. though Honda will continue to sell the subcompact car in other markets overseas.
