Long Term Comparison: 2012 Mazda2 vs 2013 Toyota Yaris vs 2013 Honda Fit
I plan to do a long term review/test with the:
2013 Honda Fit Sport
2012 Toyota Yaris LE
2012 Mazda 2 Sport
I may even start a youtube series comparing the three cars over a couple of years.
These competing sub-compact cars all have 1.5L Inline-4 engines.
My wife and I bought the Honda Fit Sport with 1700 miles on the odometer about 12 months ago with an extended 7 year, 100,000 mile warranty. We have driven it from Philadelphia to D.C., Virginia, and Maryland several times bringing the current odometer reading to 28,000 miles.
My step sister bought a 2012 Toyota Yaris LE about 8 months ago with 19,000 miles on the odometer. She has driven it from Philadelphia to Virginia, Maryland, and D.C. a few times. She now has 27,500 miles on the odometer.
I bought a 2012 Mazda 2 Sport earlier this month with 32,200 miles on the odometer. I have driven about 650 miles so far. I will be driving it to Virginia, Maryland, and D.C. this weekend so I will update you with long distance driving impressions.
The Honda Fit Sport is the top of the line version. It has sporty bumpers and side skirts, fog lights, rear spoiler, paddle shifters, cruise control, cargo net, arm rest, average fuel economy gauge, chrome muffler tip, steering wheel radio controls, and nice sporty allow wheels.
The Toyota Yaris LE is the mid level trim with fog lights, distance to empty gas tank gauge, average fuel economy gauge, volume controls on steering wheel, and cruise control.
The Mazda 2 Sport is the base level trim, as you know. The only option I have installed is the arm rest/storage console. The rest is all barebones. It even has the 5 SPD Manual transmission.
Feel free to ask me any questions about these cars.
