How much gas can a Honda Fit hold?

The Honda Fit’s fuel-tank capacity varies by model year and market, but most North American Fits hold about 11.3 to 11.9 gallons of gasoline when the tank is full, roughly 43 to 45 liters.


Understanding the exact capacity helps with trip planning, fuel budgeting, and calculating your expected driving range. This article explains typical tank sizes across common Fit generations and what can cause modest differences between markets.


Tank capacity by generation and market


Below is a concise snapshot of typical capacities reported for common Honda Fit versions in North America. Variations by trim and market are possible, so check the owner’s manual or the label on the fuel-filler door for your exact figure.



  • Early-generation Fits: about 11.3 gallons (42.8 liters) when full.

  • Later-generations Fits: about 11.9 gallons (45 liters) when full.


These figures reflect commonly cited specs for US-market models; outside North America, tank sizes can differ slightly due to packaging and regional requirements. Verify with your vehicle’s documentation for precision.


Practical implications for range


Fuel economy varies by year, engine, and driving conditions. With the stated tank sizes, Fits typically offer a driving range that covers several hundred miles on a full tank, depending on real-world mpg.


Estimating range


To estimate range, multiply the car’s average miles per gallon by the tank capacity. For example, a figure around 30 mpg would yield roughly 357 miles on an 11.9-gallon tank; higher mpg could push the range toward 450 miles or more. Actual results depend on your specific model year and driving conditions.


Summary


The Honda Fit typically holds between 11.3 and 11.9 gallons of gasoline, with exact figures depending on model year and market. For precise capacity, consult the owner’s manual or the fuel-filler-door label.
