The Fit is arguably one of the most unique offerings within the new Honda for a multitude of reasons. This subcompact is instantly recognized by its unique hatchback design and its ability to provide s spacious and comfortable cabin despite its small frame.
When the 2015 Fit was first put through the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) tests, it scored "marginal" on the difficult small-front overlap test. The Honda brand makes the safety of their drivers a top priority, and decided that this rating was not good enough. To solve the issue, the automaker revamped the welds on the front bumper and had it go through the test again.
After the Fit's front bumper was reconfigured, it then earned a score of "acceptable". Combined with its other ratings of "good" on the rest of the IIHS tests, it was named a Top Safety Pick.
For those who have already purchased the 2015 Fit, the Honda brand is offering a free replacement of the front bumper to ensure continuous safety. If you're interested in taking a closer look at the safe 2015 Fit, visit Lithia Honda in Medford today.
