MtViewGuy188,

I don't know if Honda will announce the Specs for the North American version of the Fit but it would make perfect sense to use the 1.3L from the new Civic Hybrid, 110hp, 123 ft/lbs of torque all in less space than engine shared by the 1.3L Fit/Jazz and previous generation Civic Hybrid.

Lets wait and see what Honda decides. If Honda does use the new engine it would provide better economy than the present 1.3L Fit and the perfomance of the 1.5L with more torque around town. Might also explain why the NA cars will come from Japan. As far as I know that is where the hybrid engine is produced?
