Other Choices:

The Fit outdoes nearly all of its competitors when it comes to accommodating passengers and cargo. Those who look for a sprightly feel might also consider the Rio5, but it’s not as refined overall as the fit, nor is the Aveo, which has disappointing performance but a smooth ride. The xD is the looker of the group, most would agree; and the Yaris is more fuel-efficient, at 29 mpg city, 36 mpg highway, but it gets relatively poor marks for safety.

    BEST FOR THE PRICE

    WHILE SHOPPING FOR THE MOST FUEL EFFICENT/LEAST HARMFUL TO THE WALLET, I TESTED THE TOYOTA YARIS, VW RABBIT, CHEVY AVEO, AND THE HONDA FIT. THE FIT WAS BY FAR THE BEST OF THE LOT. THE STANDARD AMENITIES ARE EXCEPTIONAL AND THE INTERIOR ROOM IS PHENOMINAL. GETS MY VOTE AND WILL SOON HAVE ONE IN THE DRIVEWAY.
