Like the Fit, it’s diminutive in size and therefore capable of fitting into those all-important “Small Car” parking spots, while even more critical will use less fuel than Honda’s larger CR-V and Pilot models. The HR-V also takes advantage of the Fit’s impressive rear seating/cargo system dubbed Magic Seat that folds very flat into the floor for hauling taller-thanaverage cargo.
