Resetting the Display Oil Maintenance Minder on Honda Fit 2009-2013
Model year 2009 brought a redesign that preserved all of the Fit's space
and made it a quicker, safer, and more modern car. Still, if you want
stability control (ESC), which we consider a vital safety item, you'd
have to look for a loaded one with the navigation system. ESC became
standard with 2011 models, so you should search for a that model year or
newer if it fits your budget. Interior versatility is the Fit's
hallmark, facilitated by rear seats that can be folded flat by sliding
them under the front seats. Alternatively, the cushion can fold up
against the backrest, creating a deep, flat floor that can accommodate
bulky items. While not overly powerful, the Fit feels responsive, with a
smooth and willing engine and agile handling that makes it fun to
drive. The ride is choppy and the car is loud, so consider it as more of
an urban runabout than a long distance commuter. Overall fuel economy
was 30 mpg.
