The clever subcompact. The Magic Seat gives it astonishing versatility for its size.
The Honda Fit (known as the Jazz in many markets) is a subcompact hatchback celebrated for packaging genius. Its center-mounted fuel tank enables the Magic Seat, which folds in multiple configurations to swallow cargo far larger than the car compact dimensions suggest, making it one of the most practical small cars ever. The Fit blended that versatility with peppy efficiency, fun handling, and Honda reliability, earning a devoted following among practical-minded and budget buyers. While discontinued in North America, it remains beloved for doing so much with so little. On WhipJury, the Fit appears as a clever, practical, fun subcompact.
