2. Honda Fit EV

The Honda Fit EV is a retrofitted Honda Fit that has been re-designed to be electric only. The electric drivetrain gives the Honda Fit EV a mpg equivalent of 118 mpg when in Eco mode. Sport mode can be engaged to give the Fit EV more speed at the cost of battery life. The Fit EV chassis was redesigned to accommodate the battery packs, giving it proper weight distribution and lowering the center of gravity. The suspension was upgraded to support the additional weight, allowing the Fit EV to maintain the tight, comfortable ride that its gasoline cousin has. The interior is comfortable and roomy, with plenty of cargo space. The seat covers are made of bio-fabric polyethylene terephthalate, which is derived from renewable sugarcane, giving the Fit EV extra environmentalism points if you’re looking for that kind of thing.
