Honda Fit Depreciation

A Honda Fit will depreciate in value by $8,517 after 5 years. Depreciation is difficult to avoid, but it can be managed. Depreciation is the difference between the original sales price, and what the vehicle will be worth in the future. We use 5 years as an example in our analysis.

When new, a typically-equipped Honda Fit sells for $20,977 on average. After 5 years of depreciation, the average residual value will be $12,460. This represents the vehicle's retail market price.

Honda Fit Insurance

The average annual cost for auto insurance for a Honda Fit is $1,905, which adds up to $9,525 after 5 years of ownership. These insurance costs are estimates based on national averages for a 40 year old, with full coverage, a good driving record, and good credit. They also assume a single-car policy, and won't reflect any multi-car discounts. See our Honda Fit Insurance Calculator to view rates by state, for different driver ages, credit ratings and driving history.

Honda Fit insurance rates will vary significantly between providers for the same coverage. If you've been with your current insurance company for more than a few years, you should get new quotes to make sure you're not overpaying.

The region you live, and the way you care for and drive your vehicle can have a big impact on these costs. So, your results may vary significantly from our estimates. Our Honda Fit Maintenance Cost Estimator shows how much you are likely to spend, and the probabilities of a major repair over 10 years.


Honda Fit Financing Costs

The average cost to finance a new Honda Fit would be $3,686 after 5 years. This assumes a 72-month loan with an APR of 6.99% and a 20% down payment. Financing costs are a vehicle cost that you can control. Your interest expense can be greatly reduced by changing your loan term, improving your credit score, or increasing your down payment.

Our Honda Fit Loan Calculator allows you to build a loan that's best suited for you. This handy utility will also help to keep you from becoming upside down, where you end up owing more than the vehicle is worth. You can estimate monthly payments and download the full amortization schedule as well. We've highlighted some typical loan scenarios in the table below.
