[11] The F154SC has a supercharger installed onto the stock L15A engine that raises base horsepower of the 1.5 L (92 cu in) I4 to 150 hp (152 PS; 112 kW) and 184 N⋅m (18.8 kg⋅m; 136 lb⋅ft).

The second-generation Fit for the North American market was unveiled on March 19, 2008, at the New York International Auto Show for the 2009 model year.

[14] It was reported in September 2009 that Honda was considering producing the Fit in North America in response to the increasing strength of the Japanese yen against the U.S.

The Fit Sport adds a ground appearance package, 16-inch (410 mm) alloy wheels, paddle shifters, a security system, fog lights, chrome exhaust finisher, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, floor mats, a 6-speaker AM/FM/CD audio system, and other features.

[16] For the 2011 models, Vehicle Stability Assist, cruise control, remote entry and USB audio interface became standard across all trim levels.

The base model receives body-color exterior mirrors (previously black), standard security system, and new wheel covers.

[18][19] Canadian trims include the DX (two speakers, black door handles and side mirrors), DX-A (adds factory-installed air conditioning), LX (adds among other things, body-colored door handles and side mirrors, 15-inch lightweight alloy wheels from the Civic Hybrid and DX-G, rear spoiler, power locks and remote entry, rear speakers for a total of four, cruise control) and Fit Sport (adds USB jack and Vehicle Stability Assist).

Only one variant was available though dubbed Grade S. It comes in a blue-black fabric upholstery for the interior, 4-speakers, a CD/MP3/WMA player with USB and AUX jack, immobiliser and 4 corner reverse sensors.

The authorized dealer sells the Jazz in two variants, the 1.3-litre and the 1.5-litre having similar specifications as the parallel imported Fit but does not adopt the RS grade for the 1.5 model.

On 19 May 2011, the Jazz underwent a facelift including the redesigned front grille, the new front/rear bumper, and LED tail lights.

[28] On 22 January 2013, the Jazz went through minor changes, including a new headlight and tail light accents, added an upper spoiler as standard, new wheels, a new audio system, and the 'RS' badge on the grille.

The new model will be sold with two new engine variants; a 90 PS 1.2-liter i-VTEC petrol capable of 55.4 miles per imperial gallon (5.10 L/100 km; 46.1 mpg‑US) (combined) and with low CO2 emissions of 120 g/km; and a 100 PS 1.4-litre i-VTEC petrol engine capable of 53.3 miles per imperial gallon (5.30 L/100 km; 44.4 mpg‑US) (combined) and with similarly low CO2 emissions of 123 g/km.

[36] Production of the Jazz for European markets moved from Japan to Honda's UK plant in Swindon on 7 October 2009.

[39] The Fit Hybrid featured a 1.3-litre engine and electric motor, with an estimated fuel economy of 3.3 litres per 100 kilometres (86 mpg‑imp; 71 mpg‑US) measured in accordance with Japanese 10–15 cycle.

[41] The European version, called Jazz Hybrid, was unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show and became available in early 2011.

Honda Fit/Jazz for the European and Japanese markets featured revised headlights, new front grille, a leather seating option and a new Lime Green exterior color choice.

[42] Fuel economy estimated in accordance with European standard is around 65 miles per imperial gallon (4.3 L/100 km; 54 mpg‑US) and CO2 emissions of 104 g/km.

[41] With the fuel tank placed in the center, plus an ultra-thin electric motor and compact IPU, it claims to achieve an efficient weight distribution.

[41] In an interview, Kohei Hitomi, the project leader of Fit hybrid, admitted that lowering CO2 further will affect some attributes that buyers of the car value: a bigger electric motor and battery sacrifice spaces utility, and improving aerodynamics might make side mirrors smaller.

According to Koichi Kondo, Executive Vice President of Honda: It is reported about 86,000 Fit Hybrid are sold in 2011.

[52] The Fit Shuttle comes with a double-hinged two-piece load floor that both allows access to an under-floor storage bin and also functions as a divider for the cargo area.

The Fit EV concept electric car had its global debut in the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show.

[57] The concept used a motor derived from the Honda FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, that, in sport mode, gave the driving feel of a car with a 2.0-litre petrol engine.

[59] Honda started the Electric Vehicle Testing Program in the cities of Saitama, Kumagaya and Chichibu, Saitama Prefecture, and Amakusa area, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan, for its next-generation personal mobility products, including the Fit EV in December 2010.

[69] The 2013 model year production Fit EV was unveiled at the November 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show.

[71][72] Honda began deliveries of the Fit EV in the United States in July 2012, and the car was available only through leasing at a price of US$389 per month for three years, based on base price of US$36,625,[73] and later the monthly lease payment was reduced to US$259 for all customers effective from June 2013.

[74][75] Initial availability was limited to California and Oregon,[71] and sales were scheduled to begin in selected markets in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maryland, New York, and New Jersey by late February 2013.

[77] The car was based on the Fit compact car platform, powered by a lithium-ion battery pack combined with an AC synchronous, permanent magnet coaxial traction motor and low-friction reduction gearbox borrowed from the Honda FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.

[84] Under the Japanese JC08 test, the Fit EV achieved the current best AC energy consumption rate of 106 Wh/km and a range of 225 km (140 mi).

[88][89][90][91] In March 2015 Honda offered a two-year lease extension to existing lessees, and also to new customers on used cars, at a reduced priced of US$199 a month with no down payment.
