TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 Honda Fit isn't as entertaining to drive as it once was, but it's unmatched in safety and space, thanks to the Magic Seat.

The 2016 Toyota Prius C remains the least expensive hybrid and retains a 50-mpg rating; it's happier in crowded cities than for long-distance highway travel.

TCC Likes

Cheap and cheerful, minus the cheap
Unbelievable interior space
Best safety in the class

Styling isn't weird

Roomy cabin

TCC Dislikes

Loud, coarse engine
Front seats could use more support
Busy interior trim

Noisy when driven hard
Acceleration miminal at speed
Economy-car interior
