“Sampling the Latest Automotive Delicacies!” - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I remember watching the review of last year’s Fit. It never ceases to amaze me how much stuff Honda can cram into a vehicle without over inflating the price tag
Because all of these things are cheaper than what car manufacturers really say. And other cars treat is as a “premium” upgrade, like a 7 inch screen could only really cost 120 as a part, but still inflate the price 3 times of what the original is. What i like about affordable manufacturers like toyota and honda is they still stay near that price range, that’s why they can keep the price of their cars relatively cheap and readily affordable.
Excellent review young man. I really appreciate the small details that no other reviewers seemed to touch on.
Thanks!

This video was super informative. Also really entertaining to watch. Im considering buying this car. Your video thus far with the amount ive watched is my favorite. Thanks!
Glad to hear that, Sabrina! Thanks!
Thanks for the review.I'm going this week to test drive a fit.
Thanks guys! Great job. Answered all my questions.
Glad to hear that! Thanks for watching!
This probably the best car review I’ve seen on TH-cam so far. So much detail is said and shown that other videos do not. Great Job!
Thanks, Steve!
Thanks! I just got a used 2019 fit after my trusty 2006 fit started to have issues. Still the best in my opinion but thanks for this sweet review, helping me solidify my choice 😂
I just got a 2020 Fit and I love it. Have some minor gripes, but still a great car.
I have a ‘10 Fit Sport and a ‘15 Fit EXL. There are still some annoyances that remain on the latest model year. Infotainment continues to be subpar. I’ve been considering a speaker upgrade to try an improve the poor audio quality. Satellite radio continues to be available only with the highest trim including Nav. No audio aux in port on my 2015, as its only available on the lowest trim. Car Play has finally arrived in 2018. The climate control is weak, and the AC not the best in hot weather. Having said all that, the fuel economy exceeds the rated numbers, especially with the CVT, and it’s quite efficient. Storage is phenomenal. From the driver’s seat there’s lots of room to breathe. The highest trim is a bit pricey, especially with the adding of more safety features. Thanks for the detailed review.
Nice review
Thanks!
Great review! Just ordered a 2019 LX, can't wait to get it!
Congrats on your new Fit!
It always bugs me when the dealership leaves the fuel tank completely empty prior to releasing the vehicle for a review. You'd think they'd would throw some gas in there considering the engine is usually running during a review 🥴
Wish all the trims had a manual transmission. I’m looking at a 2019 MT sport tomorrow. I have a 2007 and these cars are super reliable and I need something that will last the next 10 years.
We had a 2011 Fit Sport. Was a very nice value and never had any problems (other than the blower motor resistor going out). It was a great car. We ended up selling it and buying a used 2013 Mazda 3 hatch with 6 speed manual.The Mazda has way more features, but it will never beat the Fit's versatility. I wish Honda would add a larger engine option, that 1.5 does not provide enough power.
With 1.5 liter 130 horse engine, CV transmission, and car weighing about 1220 kg, I had no problem merging onto limited access highways without forcing other vehicles to slow down or move to the left, and I had no problem passing vehicles on 2-lane highways. Seems like the car took only about 3 or 4 seconds to go from 100 kph to 140 kph. on level road. Courteous drivers who moved left or slowed down to let me in on limited access highways, often found that their move was unnecessary. This CVT is great fun to accelerate with. You put the throttle pedal to the floor, and the engine speed rapidly increases to almost red-line, 6700 rpm, and they stays put at that rpm, does not budge from that rpm, while the car's wheels go faster and faster and faster Then when the vehicle reaches the speed you want, you hit the cruise control button, take your foot off the throttle pedal, and the engine rpm almost instantly drops to the lowest value that will support the speed you chose. Say 70 mph. On a level surface the rpm turns out to be about 2200 rpm. Go up a mild incline and the rpm eases up to about 2800. If you had the the manual transmission and the transmission in 6th gear, the engine rpm would be more like 3800 to 4500 rpm.
Hi, I tested one of these which was advertised from a dealer but although i liked it even with the CVT i didn’t like the way it steered like as though the castor is set too much as it wants to centre itself back too quickly into the straight ahead position and although it handles well this feeling spoils it If you know what i mean.? I wonder if the 1.3 model with the standard tyres feels better or is there a tweak to fix the sport out there to make it feel better in this dept?
Nice review. You should invest in a deadcat, though.
Thanks! We have one but it was extremely windy that day, if I remember it right
Does the autonomous braking feature also include pedestrian detection as well? I appreciate the video; nice job!
Thanks! Honda doesn't mention it specifically in the press materials but all their other cars have it so this likely does as well.
I couldn't tell if there is a camera mounted by the rear view mirror. If so, then likely it does. I believe a camera is used for pedestrian detection and a radar(usually found in front on the grill) takes care of the autonomous braking for vehicles. I think.
Answered my own question. Honda USA customer service informs me, "No pedestrian detection."
I just bought one.. and disappointed that it does not come with it!!
Great review! Is there a cover for the cargo area?
Not standard but you may be able to order one from Honda
I guess I put my expectations high for a redesign this year. Oh well, there's always next year.
Uh-oh, Drew's got soul!!! Gangsta ass music man, all you need is to have Snoop drop a few bars. Lol! Great vid as usual.
In UK only Sport is 1500cc, all other models are 1300cc. Also no exposed exhaust tip on UK Sport. It is as light as a Miata. You have to take the revs up to get the most out of the I-Vtech.
its 2021 now, a 2019 fit sport worth 17998... amazing!
A great review but what about the air conditioning? I need a lot of a/c !
It works great
I found the AC to be inadequate. If the outside temp is 90 deg F or more it takes 12-15 miles of driving with the fan on max speed and air recirculation on, before the interior cools down to about 75. Open a door, and the cabin warms up 10 degrees almost instantly. You have to drive another 5 miles before its is 75 again. Stop at a traffic light and the air coming out of the vents gets warmer. In 2 minutes the car is 80 degrees.The large expanse of black plastic under the windshield gets painfully hot and heats up the air in the cabin. I suspect that dash mat and a cargo area cover might help things. Increased thermal insulation in the door panels might help things.
I like it in yellow!
Is there a way of changing language on these models.i mean on dashboard .not radio.?
I'm a SUV type a gal but I'm warming to this hatchback. It's weird shape is growing on me
why did he not show spare tire compartment and tools to change tire if needed ?And is it a full size tire spare or a donut ?Seems like those factors are important to a buying customer wouldn't you say ?
The car is relatively practical, for a modern car with space-wasting air bag technology, and that is why I own one. Air bags in the A-pillars intrude upon your view and make you more likely to have a collision. Practical, yes, but I would consider it to be a "bad-looking" car. The second generation model was better-looking. The crease on the side of the car is over-dramatic, and the rear of the car is, well, butt-ugly. Butt-ugly though it is, it is very accomodating if you want to shove things into the car, through the rear. It has a low lift-height when you want to get things into the hatch opeining. Weirdly, thermostatic HVAC control is available in Fits-Jazzes shipped to India, Canada, and some other places, but you can't get thermostatic HVAC control in the US in any model. Yes, there is lots of room for rear passengers, but the driver and front passenger have their leg and foot-room intruded upon by the gas tank. Unless the front seat is pushed fairly far forward, the hump from the gas tank extends ahead of the seat, so you can't comfortably rest either of your feet flat on the floor while you are using cruise control. The car handles pretty well for a car in its price range, and handles significantly better if you get better tires.

Try deflating the A-pillar airbags before driving. It will provide much better visibility. ;) LOL
128 hp on the automatic and 130 on the standard. I think you switched that in your video.
We did. You probably missed the little text box that popped up
Car Confections my bad . Great review. My old 2002 Civic coupe ex Manuel had 127 hp and that was plenty for a car that size .
What is the song at 14:00?
It's on the display screen
It is the most stylish car
2007 395000km still going
i work in san francisco.. can i sleep in this vehicle ?
yes if you are under 5-10, rear seats folds flat
@@chrisyu98 or even 7 ft tall you can with rear and passenger seat flat plus a simple platform to level it out. Can also sleep sitting up in back with front passenger seat folded but thats not ideal.
No roof rack.?
whoa
PULL those headrests off. I wanted to see the back seats FLAT!
how much honda fit 2019?
I got the EXL model for MSRP: 20440.00
Come on, it’s 2019. Why don’t they have power seats in front?
S H They Are Expensive to Repair !!!! Rather have Manual Seats
Worst part is.. there’s no front heated seats.. like in the ex-l.. THIS IS JUST NOT FAIR!!
*sigh Just came back from a Honda Dealer here in Florida, West Palm Beach and the prices are MUCH higher then the ones mentioned in your video. EXL 30K, EX 26K and, when I mentioned the price difference, he said the he gets the price from the Factory. I don't get it...I would like get an EX to myself but not at that price...
Sounds like you need to visit another dealership! The prices we quoted are the national MSRP, so you should be able to buy for that price anywhere in the U.S. This dealer appears to be marking up prices higher than than the MSRP, so make sure that you check other dealers in the area
@@CarConfections Thanks for your fast reply. I am calling other dealerships in this area and already got better prices over the phone, lets see how and if it will work in person... thanks again.
Sounds quite expensive.
Nice car but 22k lol my local dealer has over 100 civic hatchbacks turbo sitting on a lot, 20K for a 2018 civic EX hatchback that do 0-60 in 6.9 sec and gives 36/40 mpg, heated seats, moon roof, heated mirrors. I like the little manure able little fit but maybe for 14-15 K unless it’s 1.5T👌
What is the name of your dealership? If they have that many cars just sitting there, i would suspect i could get a great deal on one
I heard the seats are extremely uncomfortable. If so, I would never buy this car.
The cloth seats are among the worst I've ever sat in
Wish there is an high end fit version. I like the formula of the fit. But I want luxury version of it. I do not like the idea small car is equial to cheap.
Try the BMW X1 or MBUSA GLA (although MB doesn't offer a lot for its base models)
What
Hate that rear CRV/Volvo look
Chris Haywood Better to Be Seen in Rain Fog Snow Sun Set
Wtf is that intro music
The armrest is a fail. It is too low and short. Pretty much useless.
John-Paul Hunt
The previous generation has armrest.
The Versa Note has armrest.
I am a big honda fan and pretty much replace my vehicle every year. From Fit to Odessey bit e Fit is a fail in comfort compare to Versa Note. The seats are uncomfortable and there is no armrest.
I traded my fit after a year.
Agree.. but its got some Plugs in there...
Kinda weird to have a random passenger with you when their not in a majority of the video. Flourescent Nike wear just makes you guys seem more younger than you are
People should know this car only has disc brakes in the front...the rear are drum (drum brakes is a very old technology that really should NOT be used on any car today...my 15-year-old 2003 Mazda Protege 5 has all-wheel disc brakes!). Also, the reason why you can't get a 2019 Fit yet is because of this... www.autonews.com/article/20180806/RETAIL/180809879/flooding-will-dent-honda-s-sales-earnings so...how safe is to buy a car from a factory that flooded? How do we know we won't end up w/a car that has parts that were flooded?! Recalls coming to you in 3...2...1...
thanks for warning but damn ill never find a good reliable car it seems
I have rear discs on my Jazz and they suck. They are of sub par quality. Not the braking itself but the lifespan of them.
Just what we need. More reviews by 16 year old high school kids.
Just what we need. Adults buying a high school kids car.
Car Confections if they can be responsible
The manual 6 speed is fun. The CVT is slow and boring.
Have you figured out that you're color blind yet??? Calling something orange that is red at 5:55...
I am actually color blind BUT Honda themselves calls it orange in their press materials
Nice review, horrendous car
Thanks!
S Korterink what makes it horrendous in your opinion?
Okay, the seats are cool, but it is an ugly car.
Well that's subjective, because I really like it 😎
What a very ugly car
It sells quite well so it's just matter of opinion.
