In the United States, the lowest trim for the Honda Fit is the LX, serving as the base model. Honda stopped selling the Fit in the U.S. after the 2020 model year, while the Jazz continues in other markets. This article explains the baseline trim in the U.S., how trims compare, and how base-trim naming varies globally.
United States trim levels
Here is a concise look at the trims most commonly offered in the U.S. toward the end of the Fit's run, and what set the LX apart from the EX.
- LX — the entry-level trim with standard features appropriate for a base model and a focus on value.
- EX — the main upgrade, adding additional equipment and comfort features where available.
In short, the LX is the baseline trim in the U.S., with EX serving as the primary upgrade option.
Global variations
Outside North America, the Fit is marketed as the Jazz, and base-trim naming and equipment vary by country and generation. Some markets use distinct base designations, so the lowest-trim label can differ from the U.S. model year to year. Always check local specifications for the exact entry-level model.
- Base-trim designations are not standardized worldwide; verify the lowest-trim name and equipment in your country and year.
Bottom line: for international buyers, always confirm the exact entry-level model and equipment with a local dealer or official Honda listings.
Summary
The Honda Fit's entry-level variant in the U.S. has historically been the LX, followed by the EX as the upgrade. Globally, base-trim names vary by market and generation, so it's essential to verify local specs when shopping. The Fit/Jazz remains a compact, practical hatchback with strong value across trims.
