we all want mazda demio but we all need honda fit💯

[@bensonkimani254]

Mazda Demio wins on looks 🔥 Honda Fit wins on everything else 🤗

[@rhonde1]

Fact!

[@smithngotho4047]

i recently bought the exact mazda 2 and that machine can pull.from mombasa to nairobi,full throttle,AC on.coasted me 3500,its a win for me,fit is a good vehicle too.

[@OJxiii]

How is it holding up? I am on the verge of getting the same spec. Any cons?

[@mutegikimathi6258]

I drive a 2011 Fit Hybrid and while it looks ordinary, the ka-thing is loaded to the rafters; heated seats, cruise control, multifunction steering wheel with voice command, paddle shifters, auto-lighing/levelling headlamps, semi-auto wipers, traction control with on/off switch, heated sidemirrors, auto-stop tech etc. So precise is the little hatchie's engineering you don't just drive it, you strap it on your back like a rucksack. I average 30km/L on highways...just tell me to stop. In all, I love my little kadudu nearly as much as I love me kids (don't tell their mother I said that).

[@shiftgangafrica]

Hehe much love for the Honda.

You should be doing these reviews together. I know our lady is a bit tired but we understand. You need to do reviews together.

I'd opt for the fit any day. That ka thing is nice. But yes, the Mazda is the looker between the two.

[@pekageorgez5575]

Hi point of correction the read line infont and read D of the Mazda means it's diesel not for spot

[@_Renegade254]

Meaning the demio on full tank can take you to South Africa 1 way without refueling??

I concur comrade ..mine does 23km/l and its a 2009 non hybrid Honda fit, very reliable and above all spacious...

[@gregor1729]

@@EvansTheTraveller sure on a generally gentle sloppy 33kms tarmac, on the lightest foot and at times heavy foot for speeds gets me 15 to 17km/l. To achieve that, I watch Tyre pressure at 36 -37 psi. All round, Air filter never let it build up dust, and oil changes as per or earlier than the mileage due. I hate unnecessary Weights so minimized to spare tyre and fuel half tank. I avoid speeds as much as possible!😋

[@raphkuria]

Hey SkyActiv D is for diesel red D is for sport.

[@mainamuchiri9897]

The D at the rear means Diesel and NOT Sport. Your reviews never touched on whether the diesel engine sounds noisy or quiet, and the general driving experience like comfort and picking. But it's a good review though.

[@shiftgangafrica]

The red strip on the D signifies for sports in the Mazda family

Very Nice revew guys. Its makes me wanna join you ❤💯

[@kuchiojustus8581]

"Where were you going "😂😂 bro why ayoo runnin🤣🤣

[@denzel_baraza]

the demio anyday

[@denzel_baraza]

(opinion)in terms of practicallity just avoid hybrids.. assuming the estimated life period of the battery being 10 years.. at 10 years the battery dies and needs replacement. the cost of replacement of the battery is close to the cost of buying the car used..(pruis reviews-the most hated car in the internet) then it being a closed circuit hybrid means one cant fully be on electric power. hence in as much as the gas mileage is reduced.. the hybrid system just adds weight to the vehicle and reduces efficiency

[@tonywachira72]

I beg to disagree..the more hybrid are penetrating the market the more available their battery will be cheaper and available especially from china.you can imagine in the next 10 years how many hybrid production cars will be done

[@denzel_baraza]

@@tonywachira72 hybrids are complex vehicles.. the drive train to comprehend both the electric and the engine torque into the drive shaft isn't a guess game.. the toyota prius for example has been in existent for over the ten years and is now one of the most hated due to the implication of the cost it brings when the batteries die.. further more the batteries are high voltage ones not the 12v ones you see when you open the hood.

To put this to perspective. The 1.5L 1NZ engine used by Toyotas on Probox, Premio and Allions...has 109hp...if you understand what Power to weight ratio is and now consider the 220Nm of torque for the Demio you will recall your statement.

You don't talk about the magic seats for Honda

[@erickoech1369]

Am confused in between the two but since am a man of speed and power then I have to go for diesel

[@josephmurathi8512]

Basically green is when you're using less power in eco mode saving much fuel green is when you use more power,the colour changes oftenly depending on different driving conditions. Something about the seats honda has magic seats na ukilalisha zinalala zote flat like a pickup,that honda inaeza bemba drum ile kubwa za maji tatu. Honda hapana machezo baaaana. Weuh.

[@victorfelizardoviageiro1400]

Guys, does it worth to import an 2016 Hybrid with 110km? Or it is riskier of the battery dies and need to replace which is too expensive around 1.8kUSD to 4kUSD

Here from daniyar gamingg....>!!

[@denzel_baraza]

By saying that the fit can run on electric power alone, being a closed circuit hybrid rather than a plug in hybrid, shouldn't it be a mild hybrid? where the engine just kicks in after the car is in motion? @shift gang

[@shiftgangafrica]

While on less load, the hybrid is in use. It also comes in handy when you need instant torque

No no No.she lied on the horse power. This vehicle has a 5 door hatchback type body with a front positioned engine delivering its power to the front wheels. It is powered by a naturally aspirated engine of 1.5 litre capacity. This powerplant features double overhead camshaft valve gear, 4 cylinder layout, and 4 valves per cylinder. It develops 108.5 bhp (110 PS/81 kW) of power at 6000 rpm, and maximum torque of 134 N·m (99 lb·ft/13.7 kgm) at 5000 rpm. The engine supplies its power through to the wheels via a 7 speed automatic transmission. Its stated kerb weight is 1080 kg. ukweli ndio hiyo.hakuna 137bhp hapo

[@shiftgangafrica]

Thank you for helping out with Wikipedia info, all that that you have mentioned she put across in the video if you watch carefully. However the difference in hp from what you are reading in Wikipedia is because this particular car has a mild tune on it.
