TamTam -
I would have to say technique. You may not realize that you are driving your Fit different than your civic. They are completely different cars, therefore, handling different. Don't do jackrabbit starts and learn or use better fuel efficient techniques like DWB and go the speed limit. Do you haul around a lot of stuff, run the A/C excessively, idle a lot? What is your tire pressure(check that monthly), you might want to increase your tire pressure to 40psig which is a very safe pressure to start with(mine is at 75psig).
With that said, I can drive like a jackass and still get 36-39mpg in my MT Fit. The worst I ever achieved was 31.5mpg where I drove like a jackass with a lot of city traffic.
good luck
