The 2015 Honda Fit marked a significant leap forward for the subcompact car, offering enhanced features and more sophisticated trims than previous models. Honda recognized the diverse needs of its customers and structured the 2015 Fit lineup into four distinct trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, and EX-L with Navi. Each trim is designed to provide a well-equipped experience, ensuring that every driver can find a 2015 Honda Fit that perfectly aligns with their lifestyle and preferences. Moving beyond the simpler standard and Sport versions of the past, the 2015 Fit trims offer a richer array of features right from the base model.
2015 Honda Fit LX: The Entry-Level Value
The 2015 Honda Fit LX serves as the gateway to the lineup, but it’s far from basic. Even at this entry point, Honda provides a comprehensive set of features that enhance both convenience and driving pleasure. The LX trim comes standard with a 6-speed manual transmission, appealing to drivers who prefer a more engaged driving experience. Visually, it includes 15-inch steel wheels with full covers, presenting a clean and functional look.
