TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2011 Honda Fit is like a mini-minivan in some respects, with an incredibly space-efficient design; yet it's peppy, frugal, and fun to drive.

The 2011 Toyota Yaris is a great city car for cost-conscious commuters, though those who expect a top-notch list of connectivity features will be disappointed.

TCC Likes

Great steering and maneuverability
Space-maximizing backseat arrangement
Substantial driving feel

Excellent fuel economy
Attractively styled Liftbacks
Safety features

TCC Dislikes

Bulbous, vanlike silhouette
No Bluetooth or satellite radio

Gimmicky centrally mounted gauges
Doesn't handle especially well
Flat, small front seats
