The Legacy of the Second-Generation Honda Fit

The second-generation Honda Fit, codenamed GE/GG, debuted globally in October 2007 at the Tokyo Motor Show, arriving in the U.S. for the 2009 model year and running through 2013. This redesign addressed the first-gen’s (2007-2008 in the U.S.) compact footprint by enlarging the wheelbase to 98.4 inches and overall length to 161.6 inches, boosting interior volume to 91.6 cubic feet while keeping the curb weight under 2,600 pounds. Produced at Honda’s Suzuka plant in Japan and Rajkot facility in India (for some markets), it emphasized “man-maximum, machine-minimum” philosophy—prioritizing passenger and cargo space over mechanical bulk. In the U.S., amid rising gas prices post-2008 recession, the Fit sold over 500,000 units across its run, earning accolades like Car and Driver’s 10Best for 2009-2011. It introduced i-VTEC across the board, optional navigation, and AWD in select markets, evolving the Fit from quirky import to mainstream favorite and setting benchmarks for subcompact versatility.

Powertrain Performance: Nimble Efficiency for Everyday Adventures

Propelling this Fit Sport is Honda’s 1.5-liter SOHC i-VTEC inline-four engine, tuned for the U.S. market to deliver 117 horsepower at 6,600 rpm and 106 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm, paired with a five-speed automatic transmission featuring optional paddle shifters on Sport models. This setup provides sprightly acceleration—0-60 mph in about 9.5 seconds—ideal for zipping through traffic or merging onto freeways. Fuel economy impresses with EPA ratings of 27 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 29 mpg combined for the automatic, outperforming many contemporaries and translating to roughly $1,200 in annual fuel costs at average U.S. prices. The i-VTEC system intelligently varies valve timing for optimal power and thrift, ensuring smooth operation without turbo lag or complexity, making it a go-to for budget-conscious drivers who demand responsiveness.

NHTSA Safety Ratings: Solid Protection in a Small Package

The 2009 Honda Fit earned strong marks from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), reflecting its robust unibody construction and standard safety tech. It received an overall 5-star rating, with frontal crash scores of 5 stars for both driver and passenger, thanks to advanced frontal airbags, seatbelt pretensioners, and crumple zones designed to absorb impact energy. Side crash protection also garnered 5 stars, aided by side curtain airbags (standard on Sport) and reinforced doors. The rollover rating stands at 4 stars, benefiting from a low center of gravity and electronic stability control (VSA) available on Sport trims. These ratings, combined with anti-lock brakes, traction control, and tire pressure monitoring, positioned the Fit as one of the safest subcompacts of its era, ideal for young drivers or families prioritizing protection.

Essentials:

Here are the top 10 must-know facts about this Fit Sport, streamlined for clarity:

  • Ownership Pedigree: Single owner since purchase, backed by a flawless Carfax with no accidents or discrepancies—pure peace of mind.
  • Mileage Milestone: 125,000 miles, average for its age but indicative of steady, non-abusive use with plenty of life left.
  • Service Story: Nine detailed records from trusted providers, including oil changes, brake services, and transmissions flushes—meticulous maintenance history.
  • Exterior Elegance: Vibrant Taffeta White paint, resistant to fading and easy to keep clean, complemented by Sport-specific fog lights and rear spoiler.
  • Interior Indulgence: Black cloth seats in excellent shape, with the innovative 60/40 Magic Seats folding flat for 57 cubic feet of cargo space.
  • Engine Excellence: 1.5L i-VTEC four-cylinder, lauded for its chain-driven reliability and VTEC efficiency—no timing belt worries.
  • Transmission Trust: Five-speed auto with paddle shifters, smooth and documented as well-maintained for durable shifting.
  • Fuel Frugality: 27/33 mpg city/highway, offering subcompact-leading economy and low operating costs.
  • Safety Shield: NHTSA 5-star overall with full airbag suite, VSA stability, and ABS for confident handling.

What Sets the Fit Sport Apart from the Base Model

The 2009 Honda Fit Sport elevates the base model’s practicality with sporty enhancements and convenience upgrades, starting at about $16,140 MSRP versus the base’s $14,750. Key differences include 16-inch alloy wheels (versus 15-inch steel on base) for better grip and aesthetics, projector-style fog lights for improved visibility, a rear roof spoiler and side skirts for a more aggressive stance, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with mounted audio/cruise controls. Inside, the Sport boasts a 200-watt six-speaker audio system (up from the base’s 160-watt four-speaker), a security system with immobilizer, and carpeted floor mats. The automatic transmission gains paddle shifters for manual-like control, absent on base autos. Both share the same engine and Magic Seats, but the Sport adds rear disc brakes (versus drums on base) for superior stopping power and a chrome exhaust finisher for style. These tweaks make the Sport the enthusiast’s choice—funnier to drive without sacrificing the base’s affordability or space.

Standout Features: Versatility and Verve in Every Detail

This Fit Sport excels with features that maximize fun and function in a subcompact footprint. The black cloth interior is durable and supportive, with the “Magic Seat” system allowing 60/40 split rear seats to fold flat, flip up, or tumble forward for configurations hauling bikes, furniture, or pets—up to 57 cubic feet of space dwarfs rivals. Tech includes a CD player with auxiliary input, steering-wheel audio controls, and optional Bluetooth adaptability. Comfort perks: Air conditioning, power windows/locks, tilt steering, and cruise control (Sport-exclusive). Exterior highlights: Keyless entry, roof rails for cargo, and the Sport’s fog lights and alloys enhance both looks and utility. Safety is comprehensive with VSA, side curtains, and a rearview camera option. Its lightweight aluminum hood and high-strength steel body keep it agile, while the compact 39.4-foot turning radius makes parking a breeze—perfect for urban jungles.

Performance Edge: Agile Champion in the Compact Hatchback Segment

In the 2009 compact hatchback arena—dominated by efficiency seekers like the Toyota Yaris, Nissan Versa, and sportier Mazda3—the Fit Sport stands out for its engaging dynamics and space efficiency. With 117 hp, it out-accelerates the Yaris’s 106-hp 1.5L (0-60 in 10+ seconds) and matches the Versa’s 122 hp but with sharper handling thanks to a rear stabilizer bar and sport-tuned suspension, enabling confident cornering absent in the softer Yaris or boat-like Versa. The Mazda3 hatch (156 hp 2.3L) is quicker (7.5 seconds to 60) and more powerful but thirstier at 20/28 mpg and pricier to maintain. Braking shines: 130 feet from 60 mph, beating the Versa’s 135 feet. Fuel economy edges the Yaris (29/36 mpg manual) while offering superior cargo versatility—41.9 cubic feet behind seats versus Yaris’s 9.5. Reviews like MotorTrend’s crowned the Fit “best all-arounder” for its tossable fun, quiet cabin, and 35+ mpg highway potential, making it the driver’s pick over the bland Yaris or utilitarian Versa in this value-driven segment.

The Heart of the Machine: Why the 1.5L VTEC Endures

The 1.5-liter L15A i-VTEC engine powering this Fit Sport is a cornerstone of Honda’s reputation, popular across models like the Civic and Jazz for its bulletproof design and efficiency. Over 70% of second-gen Fits featured this mill, drawn to its SOHC setup with variable valve timing for seamless power delivery and 29 mpg thrift. The metal timing chain—unlike belts in some rivals—lasts 200,000+ miles without replacement, eliminating $500–$1,000 service costs and boosting reliability scores. J.D. Power and Consumer Reports rate it among the most dependable engines, with owners routinely surpassing 250,000 miles on original components via simple 5,000-mile oil changes. Common praises: Low NVH, early torque for city pep, and resistance to oil consumption or failures plaguing some Nissans. Versus the Yaris’s chain-driven but less refined 1.5L or Versa’s belt-equipped 1.8L, the Fit’s VTEC shines in longevity tests, earning cult status for “forever” durability in a disposable era.

In essence, this 2009 Honda Fit Sport isn’t merely transportation—it’s a lifestyle enabler, blending Sport flair, legendary reliability, and subcompact smarts in Taffeta White allure. With its clean history and nine records, it’s primed for another decade of adventures. Secure this gem today and rediscover why the Fit redefined compact joy.
