Honda Fit fuel consumption

Expert answer:
Quick answer
A Honda Fit (Jazz in some markets) often achieves around 33 to 40 mpg combined, thanks to its small engine and lightweight design.
Detailed answer
The Honda Fit, or Jazz, is prized for mixing a small footprint with a surprisingly roomy interior. Its 1.5-liter engine strikes a balance between zippy city performance and efficient highway travel. Many owners see combined mileage comfortably in the 30s.
Stop-and-go traffic can lower the figure slightly, but calm driving or open-road cruising often brings it near or above 40 mpg. Maintenance—like regular oil changes, proper tire inflation, and clean filters—helps preserve that efficiency. The car’s lightweight build means you can haul groceries or luggage without hurting mpg too much.
Honda’s “magic seat” system offers folding and flipping options, letting you carry tall items or lengthy gear that wouldn’t fit in most subcompacts. This practicality extends to fuel savings: you won’t need a bigger, thirstier vehicle for everyday errands. The Fit’s reliability record and wide dealer support also keep ownership costs low.
