Will the Honda Fit feel unstable at high speeds?
2 Answers
Honda Fit is relatively lightweight, so it may feel a bit unstable when driving at high speeds. Additional information about the Honda Fit's performance: 1. Interior: As a mid-cycle refresh, the 2020 Fit retains the overall design layout of the current model. The SPORT version comes with a steering wheel adorned with red stitching, which, although the steering wheel design remains unchanged, significantly enhances the sporty ambiance inside the car. 2. Powertrain: The domestic version of the new Fit continues to use the existing L15B3 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum output power of 96kW (131PS) and a peak torque of 155N·m. The transmission system is paired with a 5-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission.
Honestly, I have quite a lot of experience driving the Fit on highways. The car is lightweight, and you can definitely feel a bit floaty on windy days or when big trucks pass by—that slight steering wheel wobble. The reason comes down to aerodynamics; small cars are more susceptible to wind gusts. But once you get used to it, it’s manageable. Especially when driving above 100 km/h, I need to stay extra focused, keeping the car centered in the lane with both hands firmly on the wheel. I’ve even tried installing an underbody spoiler, which improved stability a bit. Switching to tires with better grip also helps. Overall, it’s not as stable as a sports car, but as long as you’re not racing, it’s perfectly reliable for everyday highway use. I frequently take long trips and have adapted well—just pay extra attention to weather and road conditions. Remember, stay focused—safety first.
