The average fuel consumption of Honda Fit e:HEV was 27.4 kilometers/liter, urban fuel consumption was 42.93 kilometers/liter, non-urban fuel consumption was 22.70 kilometers/liter, and the energy efficiency was level one. Compared with the current model, urban fuel consumption increases by 3 kilometers per liter, and average fuel consumption slightly increases by 0.5 kilometers. There is no gasoline version in the data, and the noise database of the Ministry of Environment in August only shows the 2027 e:HEV model, triggering speculation about whether Honda will cancel the Fit gasoline version during the facelift.
