Used 2008 Honda Fit Sport

The 2008 Honda Fit Sport 4-door Hatchback with the 5-speed automatic (“5A”) is a lively, practical subcompact that manages to punch well above its size in versatility and personality. It’s a car for someone who wants efficiency and agility, but also a usable interior and clever features that make everyday driving more fun and flexible. Under the hood sits a 1.5-liter inline-4 with SOHC and VTEC, delivering around 109 horsepower and 105 lb-ft of torque. It’s not a powerhouse, but the lightweight nature of the car means it feels peppy in town. The automatic transmission includes paddle shifters, giving the driver more control and a sportier feel when desired. Weight is modest, so the Fit Sport accelerates respectably, especially off stops. Handling is nimble thanks to its small footprint, tight turning radius, and relatively short wheelbase. One of the Fit’s biggest strengths is its fuel efficiency. In city driving you can expect around 27-28 mpg, with highway numbers in the low-30s, often about 33-34 mpg, depending on conditions. The fuel tank holds just under 11 gallons, meaning decent range between fill-ups. For someone commuting or driving mostly in town, the running cost is quite low. Though small on the outside, the Fit makes excellent use of its space. It seats five, and the rear Magic Seat design allows multiple configurations: the rear bench seat folds flat, and the seat bottoms even flip up in a “tall item” mode, so you can haul things like bicycles or tall boxes with surprising ease. Cargo volume behind the rear seats is good for this class, and folding the seats yields substantially more space. Visibility is strong, the driving position is upright, windows large: overall a pleasant environment for this kind of car. On the road the Fit Sport is balanced: suspension is firm enough to sidestep some body roll in corners, but not harsh. The trade-off is that over rough pavement you’ll feel more bumps than you would in a larger sedan. Steering is light and responsive, easy to park, fun to zip through traffic. The brake system is adequate, stopping power good for its weight. Standard safety gear includes front airbags, side airbags, curtain airbags, ABS, stability features, child seat anchors, etc. It has power windows and locks, mirrors, tinted glass, and other conveniences that make it livable. Cabin materials are mostly plastic but put together cleanly, and the layout is logical.
