Replying to: hungarian83 (Jan 17, 2006 9:26 am) Dimensions I'm looking for are length and wideh of the cargo area with the rear seats folded flat. The volume only comes out to 30 cu.ft. This does not make sense to me, as I have 43 cu.ft. in my Mazda 323 hatchback, which is 6 inches lower and 6 inches narrower than the fit - and has a much longer hood. Or are the Fit's wheel wells huge?   Shneor Replies to this message: hungarian83 (Jan 17, 2006 11:02 am) bamacar (Jan 17, 2006 11:13 am) shneor (Jan 17, 2006 11:30 am)

Replying to: shneor (Jan 17, 2006 9:51 am) Good point. That's interesting that the cargo area they give is so small. The interior should be identical to the US version in terms of dimensions. The US figures are 21.3 cu.ft. for the rear cargo area with seats up while the Japanese site says 380L (13.4 cu.ft.). The cars are identical in this respect, so its just the way they measured it. US figures for the seats down cargo area are "TBD" and 90.1 cu. ft. for passenger capacity.   Dimensions: JDM (again should be same as US) 1720mm (67.7 inch) cargo area length in utility mode (rear seats down) 1385mm (54.5 inch) interior width at rear seats   Regarding the head rests, you don't need to remove them. You can slide the front seat forward, move the rear seats down into utility mode, and then move the front seats back to the original position. The headrests slide underneath the front seat. This is what the animation on the Japanese website shows. Of course, I'm sure you can remove the headrests and store them under the front seat too.   Here are some good animations that go over the interior. http://www.honda.co.jp/Fit/showroom/utility/index.html Replies to this message: bamacar (Jan 17, 2006 11:13 am) shneor (Jan 17, 2006 11:30 am)

Replying to: hungarian83 (Jan 17, 2006 11:02 am) It appears in the video that during the "sleep" mode the front seat headrests are removed. I am not sure what mode the question was referring to. They may have been referring to the "long" or "utility" modes like you, and as you said there would be no headrest removal.

Replying to: hungarian83 (Jan 17, 2006 11:02 am) Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for! I'm sure the interior height of the cargo area is at least 30". That gives about 60 cu.ft. (subtracting a bit for the curve of the upper rear hatch).   Shneor
#7 of 118 Got Cargo? by plekto Jan 19, 2006 (1:03 am)
I did some trickery with the images posted recently and some calculations. Enjoy.   P.S. I want the 14 inchers you can get in the U.K. and Japan. Why? Bigger tires in a small car eat into mileage and handling, plus they cost more to replace.     I get as a rough estimate, 38 inches or so wide and 32 or so high. Not the magic 36*36, but pretty close all things considering. When it arrives, though, I'll be sure to take a tape measure or maybe a 30*30*30 and a 36*36*36 box along.

If you're willing to shop around you can get 185/55R15 tires at pretty reasonable prices--if you're a Costco member check around because they can get tires in that size for you.

I've yet to see a Spoon track Fit with 14's - their's and Mugen's hotted up Fits go to bigger rims (16+) for handling

Bigger tires in a small car eat into mileage and handling, plus they cost more to replace."   You can have those wheels. The wheel sizes the US base model is getting are the exact same as the Fit in Japan and Jazz in Europe. USDM: 175/65 R14 JDM: 175/65 R14 EUDM: 175/65 R14   In fact, the wheel covers are essentially the same as the 2001-2003 (Japan) or 2002-2004 (Europe) Fit and Jazz. They just put those black stripes on them.   It is the Sport wheels in the US that have the slightly different specifications: USDM: 195/55 R15 JDM: 185/55 R15 EUDM: 185/55 R15 Replies to this message: plekto (Jan 19, 2006 11:50 am)
