Default Re: 2k8 Fit Hybrid will be Insight powered

As much as I *love* my 2003 HCH, when my car payments are up in 2008, I will be *very* happy to trade it in for a 2008 HFH. What's not to like? It's small, sporty, fast, and cheap!

Car & Driver totally loved the current-tech Fit, giving it a score of 228 out of 250. It went from 0 to 60 in 8.2 seconds!

If the gasoline version gets 35 miles per hour, then the hybrid version will probably get 53 MPH if it gets the same FE improvement as the HCH. Of course, a hypermiler could probably squeeze upper 70s out of a HFH.

.

Hope is like a candle held against the night.
