Fit hybrid road test....

Honda Fit Hybrid Specs - Motor Trend

One thing I did notice is the said the hybrid is a 1 sec faster 0-60 than the gas powered version... (9.2 sec)
Not according to their test back in 08?
0-60 in 8.3 sec. Get it backwards?

If anything I wonder how it compares with the Insight? Could Honda possibly come out ahead now by replacing the slow selling Insight with the Fit Hybrid?

Read it again. They said they estimate it 1 sec quicker than the INSIGHT.

Yea thanks...After I commented they edited it (see my comment #16)

Their edit...

"Hey all, slight editing error, that should have been a second quicker than the Insight about 9.2 sec to 60. Fixed"

I've seen 9.2 in "sport mode" and 10 in straight auto mode...where the truth lies who knows????
How it makes a difference confuses me as well.
