Honda has priced its 2009 Fit from $14,550 for the base model and $16,060 for the uplevel Fit Sport model. For the first time, Honda will offer North American buyers a Fit with a navigation system – starting at $17,910 for a Fit Sport so equipped.
The base model will come with an AM/FM/CD player with RDS and MP3 playback, an auxiliary input and power windows, locks and mirrors. The Sport adds 16 inch alloy wheels (up one inch), fog lamps, a bodykit, keyless entry, cruise control, two additional speakers (for a total of six) and a USB input for audio. With the optional navigation system, Fit also comes with Vehicle Stability Assist stability control.
Honda charges a $670 destination fee on the Fit.
The EPA has rated the base Fit at 27/33 city/highway mpg with the five-speed manual and 28/35 with the five-speed automatic. The Sport is the same with a manual but drops automatic transmission figures to 27/33.
