Content Inside: 2009 HONDA FIT SPORT
Lots of changes for the second generation Honda Fit. For starters, all dimensions have grown--5 cm more wheelbase, 10.6 cm more overall length, 1.3 cm more overall width, 3 cm more interior width, 3.6 cm more front track width and 2.4 cm more rear track width. Front body stiffness has increased 164%. The Fit is offered in DX, DX-A (a new version with air conditioning), LX and Sport trim lines. Interior and trunk The front seats are easy to access but the wide doorsills can soil your clothes. Settled inside, we noted that the cabin is roomier, the front seats have been redesigned, the steering wheel tilts and telescopes, and there's a new driver footrest. The seats are comfortable, but there is no adjustable lumber support. Headroom and legroom are relatively generous. Access to the rear is more cumbersome even though the doors open 80 degrees wide. The second-row Magic Seat folds flat in a single motion without having to remove the head restraints. It provides adequate comfort for two people. It is a stand-out for functionality, allowing you to fold each 60/40-split section completely flat in the usual manner or to flip the cushions up and back against the seatbacks to obtain around 120 cm of vertical space. Considering the size of the vehicle, trunk capacity is good. The floor is flat, the hatch opening is relatively low and the rear door lifts high. Convenience and safety features The cabin is very well finished and materials are of good quality. Soundproofing is very inadequate, for all sources of noise. There are several storage compartments, none of which offer any significant volume. Gauges and controls are well laid out but several controls, and the glove compartment, are not illuminated at night. The heating system provides lots of heat but heats up rather slowly.
