i remember getting one and waited for the engine to roar when pressing the power button... little did I realise it was on the whole time hahaha. Great review bro. Totally agree with this vid.
Yeah! This machine doesn’t Roar 😜
is it a good car? it sage gas?
I'm going to buy one of these in a few days as my first car, I'm really excited!
Awesome bro .. safe driving
I was reading at one of the adverts in Australia, that it does 100km in only 2.5 liters.
That’s unbelievable.. even the Toyota Yaris cross hybrid I heard was giving 3.5/100km
Hi thanks for the review, have you had any issues with the car? I have heard there are issues with the DCT transmission. Also is there a way to test the life of the battery when shopping for a used one?
Hey thanks for watching and finding this video interesting. I didn’t had any issues with transmission, regarding battery life I don’t think we can check when shopping used car always make sure it’s fresh import with service history and low kms on the road .. take a test drive of same vehicle you are purchasing for 20 minutes and asking for 3 to 6 months warranty after sales
Thanks for your review. Nice one. How many km you get for a full tank of gas? Thanks
Hey buddy thanks I only fill as per requirements mostly fill 18 L That last me for 340kms
Can i put roof racks plus bike rack at the back with full load with passenger. Then additional awning. Im planning to use for camping. To get economy.. mostly for uphill.
@@jackfieldsjack1061 yes you can
My Honda fit hybrid 2014 doesn't start on EV mode, is it normal? What should i do?
Great review thank you!
How much inches is the aftermarket multimedia player that you got installed?
I reckon it’s 6 or 7 inch don’t remember exactly
If am driving it on EV mode...how long can i take before regular fuels engine kicks in?
As long as you don’t REVV the car will be in EV mode that means in low speeds and the more you revv and stop or brake regeneration kicks in to charge 🔋
Who changed the info screen
I might get mine changed. And how much are they to change and cost of the screen
I got mine changed directly from dealer .. You can get it fine outside for $150 or I recommend install with android auto or apple car play for $400
Question: I’m new to Hybrid, supposedly u buy a car at 70,000kms does that mean we “must” change the Hybrid battery when it reach 150,000kms?
You can easily use your hybrid car which is 70000 kms to 240000kms or upto 15 years from year of manufacture whichever comes first .Always buy cars 2016 & above and less driven kms , if you want to use for long run.
@@Drivediscoveryx cheers mate🙏🏼
I bought mine 2 weeks ago and i have 043643km on it, how long you think i can use it before i can change the hybrid battery please thank you.
You can use the car upto 150000kms or 15 yrs since manufactured whichever comes first
Do all the Japanese 1.5 hybrid imports come with the dct?
Honda Fit Hybrid uses an Earth Dreams 1.5-liter Atkinson cycle DOHC i-VTEC engine paired with a 7-speed DCT (dual-clutch transmission) and an internal high-output motor, IPU (Intelligent Power Unit) with lithium-ion battery, electric servo braking system with variable servo ratio control.
The Aqua's 1.5-litre engine is mated to a CVT gearbox and utilises Toyotas third-generation hybrid synergy Drive system with a small 0.9 kWh nickel-metal hydride technology battery
@@Drivediscoveryxwhat battery does the fit hybrid have, and can you check its state of health?
Bro, nice car and great video. I just bought the same model in Christchurch. Are you use 91 or 95 fuel? I am pretty sure the 1.3L engine is 91, not sure about this 1.5L hybrid engine.
Bro I use 91 fuel for my car
@@Drivediscoveryx cool cool. I’m going to collect my fit tomorrow afternoon. Exciting :)
@@jeffalert Congratulations bro .. Happy & safe driving 😊
@@Drivediscoveryx it drives fantastic, inside is bigger than most medium size sedan! FYI the car dealer told me to use 95, said it will make the engine burns smoother:)
@@jeffalert in japan 95 is equivalent to 91 here. They do the octane calculation differently
Hi Benoy how is the car for long drives? did you any time feel loss of power? how is it while you try to accelerate or overtake?
For long drives it’s pretty smooth and comfortable even for rear passengers spacious to carry luggage for small family trips Driver needs to attach a neck pillow or support as seats & neck rest are not that comfortable but if you take breaks between every 100 or 150 kms not a problem . As we need to maintain speed limit 100 kmph (here in New Zealand )it is pretty decent to drive only problem you face is uphill as you feel lack of power and need to accelerate . For normal roads it’s pretty decent even to overtake . It’s decent as a hybrid hatchback. But if you are frequently do long drives better go for SUV
have u ever driven it up a hill station ? if yes then how was its performance power wise ?
It’s decent for its engine.. as it’s hybrid there will be lag, if you need power try sports mode
Great video I have a Japanese import do you know how to change the settings from Japanese to English 🤔🤔
I just had translation app on smartphone to read and change language watch my other video
Can this run if hybrid battery dies
You can run car on regular fuel but mileage differs
When i start my engine is a little bit loud is that normal...and it vibrate a little bit is that normal too... And long you've been using your car
I didn’t faced this , My car is silent when I start no vibrations . I used it for 1.5 years then sold as I moved to Australia
How is the aftermarket infotainment system that the dealer installed?
Does the Bluetooth work ok with your phone? Can multiple phones be connected to it at once?
The Bluetooth was working fine with both android & apple phones
@@Drivediscoveryx Cheers mate!
Hi Binoy, which stereo model you have replaced with? I am about to buy similar 2016 fit model.
It’s the one installed by dealer basic Bluetooth audio system with FM , touch response is average but does what it’s meant for .I sold the car no more in NZ moved to Australia . I don’t remember model.
I have one but my radio Is lock and they ask for code .. Gathers vxm- 145vsi can you help me with the code please
The dealer from whom I purchased changed stock Japanese Infotainment to Regular Bluetooth English version one
Did u get a rebate?
No I Bought in Oct 2021 by then it didn’t started
I bought mine in 2022. Can you tell me How to get a rebate? Thanks

how did you convert the infotainment from Japanese to English?
The whole unit the dealer replaced as we can’t change Japanese language in it . You can get Android auto installed instead of Bluetooth infotainment system to access gmaps
@@Drivediscoveryx Actually the default infortainment can be changed to English. There are videos showing that in youtube
@@maxwellmaragia2272 if they can then it’s good but the one I saw was annoying
In Australia prices are too high for cars and annual registration is around $800 per year. Same car is about AU $18K
I heard about it that the prices for used cars are high in Australia when compared to New Zealand .. thanks for sharing
Aussie import dealers are thrify mate, they screw around import car prices a lot !!
Is it possible to change the Japanese stuff to English (on the menu for Range and stuff @8:30~) at a Honda dealership?
I tried by myself but was not successful.. you can try with Honda dealership
Try using the "Google Translate" ap.
Select Japanese to English.
Point phone at text and it will convert on screen.
What is the difference with eco mode
Eco mode saves on fuel improves mileage but lacks power
What is the fuel economy? Where did you buy this?
Fuel economy is 18 to 21 kmpl depends on driving conditions. Dealer details in description
@@Drivediscoveryx that 18 to 21 kmpl is it even in town city with normal traffic jams like in Kenya?
@@josephmurathi8512 I don’t know about Kenya’s traffic jams , but in bumper to bumper traffic everyday this car still manages to give you a good mileage.
Where is the spare tyre?
You won’t get a spare tyre in Honda Fit Hybrid You get a Tyre repair kit . It can repair tyre tread punctures upto 4 mm in size in about 10 minutes
does the multimedia player have apple carplay?
No , The regular Bluetooth one
You can get apple at play installed in $500 OEM one
@@Drivediscoveryx can opt to change for the apple car play version?
@@iqmalanderson176 NOVINO Motors installed my car with Bluetooth Infotainment as the original one was Japanese language.
Hi how much u buy this car?

@@Drivediscoveryx Thank for ur response really appreciate sir 😊 GBU

@@Drivediscoveryx How much Case it went ??
@@sairamreddy1724 I didn’t get you CASE?
who changed the screen to english
Removed the Japanese infotainment and installed English version. The Tachometer display you can only change time rest are all still Japanese written
Hi, what year is this car.
It’s 2016 Fresh import from Japan NZ first registered
@@Drivediscoveryx OK thanks, same as the one I'm seeing. On Utube there are some comments saying that the battery blower becomes very hot and makes a humming noise as it needs to be cleaned. Also the IMA light comes on and will not go away after this happens. Have you had any issues with that please?
Thanks again for your reply.
@@tik4su No I never faced any such problems in this 7 months of usage
OK....great to know....thank you and have a great weekend.
I can’t see that cheap car in novinos,
I heard they r now giving clean car rebates .
@@Drivediscoveryx do you why i can't find this car in the stock, their website is playing up.
@@ThePunjabWay You contact them directly , they don’t update in their website frequently
