Both trim levels of the 2007 Honda FIT come standard with a 5-speed manual
transmission (5-speed automatic is available as an optional upgrade) and a 109
hp in-line 4-cylinder engine. As well, both have a full array of Honda safety
features, including 3-point seat belts for all passengers, front, front side,
and side curtain airbags, anti-lock breaks, side impact door beams, and
childproof locks on the rear doors.
The FIT also has the usual Honda exterior features: power side windows, roof
mounted antenna, multi-prismatic xenon headlights, dent-proof bumpers, timed
windshield wipers and tinted glass. The Sport also includes fog lights, a rear
spoiler, and a remote entry system.
Inside the car, motorized windows and door locks, environmental cooling, power
outlets, and cup holders are standard on both models. The Sport also includes
throttle control. And then there's the special back seat - so special, in fact,
that Honda calls it the Magic Seat and has trademarked the phrase. More than a
simple 60/40 split back seat, the back seat in the 2007 Honda FIT has 4 distinct
configurations. In Tall mode, the seat bottom flips upward, allowing for the
storage of tall items, like bicycles, potted plants or framed artwork. Refresh
mode allows the front seats to recline flat, meeting, rather than overlapping,
the edge of the rear seat, perfect for quick naps in roadside rest areas, or
camping in inclement weather. Long mode allows the front passenger seat to be
folded down as well as the rear seat, for porting of long items - think skis or
ironing boards, and Utility mode is the most conventional folded-flat back seat
configuration, for bulky cargo or household pets.
