2011 Honda Fit new grade: RS and hybrid(JDM only, of course)

http://www.honda.co.jp/Fit/


New grade features standard bespoke aero package and most importantly, a 6 speed manual transmission standard. The other option would be an artificial 7 speed CVT that makes for instantaneous gear changes for you lazy or crippled-on-the-left-leg drivers.

Engine also powered up from 108HP to 120HP for that extra something something.

Personally that's pretty funny considering now this grade of Fit will share the chassis of the CRZ, yet have 5 doors and equivalent horsepower without a stupid electric motor. Being a Fit, it also feature class leading fuel economy even after the power bump...

The other grade is of course, the Hybrid, which has the CRZ drivetrain stuffed into a fit, but the engine is replaced with a 1.3L achieving 33km/L in the typical 10/15 Japanese cycle test....Nothing special about that one.

What chu think?

Which grade will make it over here in the North America showroom?
