2009 Honda Fit Reviews, Pricing & Specs

It was well appointed. It drove well for what it is. The cargo area ,with the back seats down, is flat and spacious. Great fuel economy is a real plus!

I have the Manual Transmission in mine and i think it responds a whole lot better then the Auto Transmission...I test drove both and I was happy with what I got. I love the very versitile way you can configure the interior to Fit almost what ever you need. I get about 38 MPG avg but I also like to get on the gas.. but you can easily get 40+ MPG out of this car.

Performance: performance is weak. Had to add the Injen CAI and custom exhaust. takes off quite fast but needs more HP. with the CAI and custom exhaust its only putting out about 130HP Build Quality: no repairs yet. Appearance: looks lame Cost of Ownership: good on gas if driven the right way. Fun Factor: drives nicely.

Very dependable car. The vehicle is great around town and can fit almost anything I back. A lot of head room and visibility when traveling. Fits into tight spaces and easy to parallel park. Great first car or just a to safe on gas.

Our 2009 Honda Fit has been a fun reliable companion since we bought it new. Our Fit has been a commuter car, pet transporter, cargo hauler, RV TOAD, and weekend getaway enabler. Honda did a wonderful job designing the "magic" rear seats. With the seats in their upright position you can "fit" two actual adults in the back of the car without the front seat passengers having to eat the super long dash. With the rear seats fully collapsed into the floor, the "fit" transforms into a wonderfully roomy cargo/pet hauler with a flat floor. Sure our little four cylinder automatic Fit could use a bit more power and it does get a bit buzzy on the highway, but it's hard to beat our experience of 36mpg average with a mix of city and highway driving. Handling is decent, although feedback is a bit numb, and braking is respectable, if a bit spongy at times. One feature in the automatic sport is the ability to "sport shift" the automatic using F1 style steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. This feature can be slightly amusing but at the end of the day is a bit of a waste of time since the shifting isn't especially crisp when using the paddle shifters and the little four banger, while providing admirable fuel economy, is a bit buzzy and under-powered. At the end of the day we love our little Honda Fit. For us it simply "Fit"s our lifestyle and needs.

Overall a really good car. With Manual transmission it puts the fun back into driving. Economy is great getting upwards of 35 or better MPH on mixed use. Plenty of cargo room for family of 5 passenger packing light loads. Bike rack is OK on aftermarket towing package. Heavier racks can pull the nose up. Parking is a dream.

Good performance and fuel economy. Attractive interior and exterior. Rattling noise at the rear door (I think its the plate number but I cant drive w/o it. Good acceleration, considering it's 1.3 Color is fun as well as driving with it.

It handles great around corners (manual trans:p), great on gas, peppy car to drive and its fun. The interior is nice. The sport package gives it a good look. All around its a great and fun car for me.

The Milano Red is the only free colour for my country (except for the white which I didn't like so much), and the Elegance trim is the basic to have air conditioning; very good to see that in 4 months the appearance still looks good even without washing it every week: the build quality is satisfacting. The best quality of my car are: space, performance and costs. It's like a minivan, I could throw anything in the trunk and still have enough space to sit my mates and go even for long rides. Performance is very good: with the smallest 1.2 liter engine I can even pass people who drive a 1.6 liter (average) and say "bye-bye" to most cars I see on streets. And the best is that my tank is full for most part of the week: consumes are very little! Honda didn't provide to offer bumper protection, so any piece of dust can seriously damage the beautiful-looking Milano Red. Talking about fun? You can drive a Ferrari, if you have lot of money... but if you manage to have a ride, to load tons of stuff and still want to save some coins the Honda Fit (Jazz, for my country) can also show you how have all of this and still have good accelleration and nice handling...on a city car! ^_^

Easy and fun to drive, excellent fuel economy, great fit and finish not to mention loads of interior space and nice extras like alloy wheels. Cost of ownership 0 but Honda parts are expensive so I hope it stays low.

Excellent handling! Great looking car! Gas mileage great! I average at around 40 mpg! The only draw back is that the pick up is really slow...it does have paddle shifters but it still feels like it struggles to shift sometimes...Other than that, it is a super fun car to drive!!! Oh yeah.....for its personality, it really needs a sunroof :)

Performance - nice handling, accelerates well, good braking system Build quality - great Appearance - looks sensational, but the interior isn't done perfectly Cost of Ownership - not too expensive, less fuel consumption, not too bad for the maintenance cost Fun Factor - very fun to drive

It is a blast to drive! It is quick, nimble and responsive. The gas mineage is great (36+). The quality is very good. Do not like cloth seats. The nav system is good, but not as good as Garman. Finish is of good quality.

Fun car to drive, lots of room. Great on gas. Got 42 miles per hour on highway driving. Cost is affordable. Bought new snow and mud tires as the one's on it were less than desirable, only downfall this far.

Fun little car and spacious, can also turn into a camper with the proper amount of organized placement

Sturdy car if well-cared-for, small and economical but also has a flexible interior that can fold up to allow storage space. Feels like a small minivan. Is very simple inside, which means fewer accessories, but also fewer things to break and need fixing.

Plenty of interior room with many variations of seat configuration. Easy handling and good brake. Good fuel consumption and maintenance cost. Of course the engine is only 1.5 liter, the acceleration will be disappointed with full load of people. Overall it's a good car.

$30 CDN a tank, enough said. Not the fastest thing but nimble enough to get around town. It is a light car and with 117 horses, that is plenty. The 2nd row 60/40 magice seats can fold flat and get more freight room than GM SUVs.

I love my car because it's new and I had to replace my Civic (accident). Never really liked the Fit but then I drove it and it's fun to drive! It's my 3rd Honda so gotta love it. =] The Fit looks small on the outside but it has a spacious interior.

I purchased this car new in Dec 2008 for the purposes of commuting to work 84 miles one way. It was fine for a few years, but I need something more comfortable now. This car is fine for someone that is driving in the city (on smooth roads), or short drives on the highway. The car is very attractive and sleek, but this look comes at a cost of an inefficient A/C on long trips in the summer. The biggest problem with this car is the awful ride with the low profile tires. You will feel every bump in the road. Never again will I get these kinds of tires on any vehicle. These wheels look 'cool', but ruin the ride.
