Honda revamped its already popular Honda Fit for the fourth and last time in 2020. This front-engine subcompact hatchback was first introduced in 2007, and the 2020 version was the final upgrade introduced in the country. The car offered a few exceptional features that made it more fuel efficient, versatile, and powerful. It is also among the company’s smallest and most affordable cars. Here is everything you need to know about Honda Fit:

About the brand
Honda is one of the largest and most respected car companies in the world. Originating in Japan, though the company has its roots in manufacturing motorcycles, it gradually became a leading automaker that offers cars for all segments.

Interiors and comfort
The 2020 Honda Fit re-introduced the clean style and design for which Honda cars are well known. The 5-seater car was said to have the best interiors among all the cars in this segment. In fact, the cabin of the Fit is the largest among all the cars in the subcompact class. You can expect excellent legroom, which makes the car a great option for long drives.

In-car entertainment
Those who love playing music on the road are in for a treat with the Honda Fit. The car comes fitted with Bluetooth audio and a USB port. The auxiliary audio input, however, was removed to make the sound system more compatible with smartphones. You also get a 7.0 inch-touchscreen that allows Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. You can also add in two additional speakers for the sound system, taking the total number to six.

Safety features
The 2020 Honda Fit is amongst the safest cars in the world. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) awarded it the highest ratings in all the crash tests it conducted. It has also received a five-star crash test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). You get features like anti-lock brakes that enhance the ability of the car to turn while braking suddenly. The hatchback also came with overhead, front, and side-impact airbags along with pretensioners. They automatically tighten the seatbelts to protect the occupants of the car during a collision. Other security features include automated emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane-departure warning.

Performance
The 2020 Honda Fit comes with a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that offers almost 130 horsepower when you opt for the six-speed manual transmission. For vehicles equipped with CVT (continuously variable/automatic transmission), the engine delivers around 128 horsepower. However, we found that the engine makes a droning noise at higher rpm or speeds.

Price
The 2020 Honda Fit is available in four trims, all equipped with a 4-cylinder engine and all-wheel drive. You can choose the best model for you based on your budget and overall requirements. Further, you can also choose the features you want in the car and ask for upgrades.

There’s a lot to like about the Honda Fit. This small yet mighty hatchback came with a few advanced features, a better solid body, and unmatched security features. The 2020 version offered a bigger room, more flexible space, and a sportier look than its predecessors. All these aspects make it a well-rounded compact car that small car buyers can enjoy.
