A fucking Honda Fit (a subcompact hatchback) hauls more volume than a lot of SUVs/"trucks" these days.
My last car (Prius Prime) could haul about the same amount as a lot of modern pickups. Maybe that's why that hated it so much.
Never driven a Prius, but I have driven a couple Fits before and while they're not super fast, they're surprisingly fun to drive on twisty roads. Not as fun as my manual Subie, but nobody's perfect.
Agreed. I was rather impressed by it. Just wish Toyota would pull the thumb out and actually support BEVs rather than doing everything they can to justify holding onto fossil fuels.
Anything small and reasonably low is so much more fun on twisty roads than a big jacked up lifted truck or jeep or whatever. I hate catching up to trucks in my crossover and getting stuck behind them on what should be a super fun mountain road.
I drive a Fit: 10/10 would recommend.
Called a Jazz in many markets, including here. That's actually my old favourite "sensible car". The space inside is just phenomenal. And its really handy size on the outside. Great combination to have.
Driver's car it isn't. You just point it at a direction and tell it when to stop and when to go. No wows, but no complaints either.
It's not so bad in manual really, but they're harder to find especially these days.
