Usó 2009 Honda Fit en venta en Knoxville

Descripción del vendedor

When Honda introduced the first generation Fit to the North American market in mid-2006 its timing couldn't have been better. The entry level hatchback appeared just as fuel prices in the U.S. were heading skyward. Ever since then the Fit has been selling as fast as Honda can bring them in from Japan. The Fit (or Jazz as its known in some markets) debuted in 2001 and the second-generation model went on sale in Japan last fall. Honda showed the new U.S.-spec Fit at the New York Auto Show last spring and we had our first opportunity to drive it on the roads north of Ann Arbor MI last week. As is typically the case with new models the updated Fit has grown a bit (about 4 inches in overall length) but it's only about 44 pounds heavier than the outgoing model. Also in the usual fashion Honda strove to increase the refinement of the Fit while not losing any of the fun-loving qualities of the original. In the process it has had to deal with rising raw material and shipping costs while keeping the price from getting out of hand. Read on to find out if the spiritual descendants of Soichiro Honda have succeeded. %Gallery-29718% Photos Copyright ©2008 Sam Abuelsamid / Weblogs Inc. The debut of the modern MINI earlier this decade clearly demonstrated that a small fuel efficient car didn't have to be a cheap plasticy under-performing penalty box in which to suffer your commuting activities. The MINI's BMW origins however meant that it was a bit on the pricey side as well as having a minuscule back seat. The arrival of the Fit on our shores took those same driving qualities and added a more reasonable price and vastly more space for occupants. The Fit is taller and longer than the MINI but smaller than cars like the Nissan Versa and Ford Focus. The original Fit was designed well before Honda decided to bring the car to North America so it didn't incorporate much in way of U.S. demands. Nonetheless in its first two years on the market American drivers took to the Fit and Honda sold as many as they could stuff on cargo ships from Japan. Besides its handling and fuel efficiency features like the rear Magic Seats and ample cargo space also contributed to its popularity. For the second generation Fit Honda wanted to build on what made the original a hot seller without diluting any of those properties. The design philosophy behind the Fit is described as "Man-Maximum Machine-Minimum" shrinking the car around the biggest possible user space. As we said the new Fit has grown a bit but not by much. Its limbo capabilities are unchanged at 60 inches but it's about 0.6 inches wider and 4.3 inches longer. Following its New York Auto Show debut last spring some observers complained about the longer nose compared to the JDMVisit Moto Now online at www.motonow.net to see more pictures of this vehicle or call us at 865-932-0343 today to schedule your test drive.[!@@Additional Info@@!]ABS Brakes,Air Conditioning,Alloy Wheels,AM/FM Radio,Cargo Area Tiedowns,CD Player,Child Safety Door Locks,Cruise Control,Daytime Running Lights,Driver Airbag,Fog Lights,Front Air Dam,Front Side Airbag,Interval Wipers,Keyless Entry,Leather Steering Wheel,Passenger Airbag,Power Adjustable Exterior Mirror,Power Door Locks,Power Windows,Rear Spoiler,Rear Window Defogger,Rear Wiper,Second Row Folding Seat,Side Head Curtain Airbag,Steering Wheel Mounted Controls,Tachometer,Telescopic Steering Column,Tilt Steering,Tilt Steering Column,Tire Pressure Monitor,Trip Computer,Vehicle Anti-Theft
