That depends on what kind of praise you've been hearing about it.

In the U.S. the Fit/Jazz is regarded as a good car in it's segment. Decent driving dynamics and power, lots of room for it's space and size, and reliable.

The US also didn't get the Fit/Jazz until 2007, and they quickly became known for leaking.

>Is it worthy of its praise?
Nope.
Get a first gen Toyota Yaris instead.

i hate incorrect use of the phrase "red pill me on".
Don't do that.

Honda Jazz is a reliable vanilla commuter shitbox with decent standard equipment.

thats it.

All I hear is that it has insane cargo room for its size paired with honda/jap reliability+delicious MPG's.

Yuropoor perspective.

I drive one. Never broken down, 80k miles. Handles alright but main thing is it's practical. Lots of room inside. Decent fuel economy. Goes basically anywhere - I've hauled four boats on the roof, driving through snow on windy Scottish roads without problems. Anything else you need to know?

Yes

If you are looking for a small ecobox for daily driving, its the best small ecobox for daily driving.

The fit sucks. A pillars in the way of your view and you WILL almost hit pedestrians because of it.

It is slow as fuck. It is rated to get 31-34 mpg, but if you are driving against the wind, or on an incline, you won't get more than 24 mpg.

Car is kind of twitchy, but I got used to it when I drove mine. But because of that, grooves in the road pull your car to and frow. Wasn't an issue during dry drives, but I've almost lost control at 50 mph during heavy rainfall and don't even fucking touch a Fit if there is snow on the ground.

They are also cheaply made as fuck. When i owned one, I put 5000 miles on it. In that 5000 miles, the dashboard began to rattle, the rear hatch rattle BADLY, and the suspension sounded like it was loose, when it wasn't. On top of that, each generation has transmission issues which you will be fully responsible for.

If you want some A/C, be prepared to lose all hamster power. That's right, no horses were used in the making of this vehicle.

Roll down a window and it rattles like crazy. Then, if you roll down both rear windows, you get a crazy whistle and weird air pressure problem that fucks with your head. I actually do it to the occasional rear passenger just to lol when they bitch about their ears pulsing. It is funny for like 8 seconds till you realize you own that problem.

I sold mine with just 22,000 miles on it. Far too few of miles to be plagued with so many interior issues.
