The best hatchback in 2009 was given to the 2009 Honda Fit by U.S. News rankings and reviews. It scored very high in all the catagories, it actually outscored the 2nd place car by .8 points which is alot. The only thing it scored bad in was the look of the outside. It looks like a wagon, not like the sporty hatchbacks. One of the good things about it is that it can get up to 33 miles per gallon on the highway which is very nice. The Honda Fit has 20.6 cubic feet of space inside with is alot compared to the other hatchbacks. The Honda Fit's MSRP is right around $16,000 which isn't too bad but it is kinda pricey compared to other hatchbacks with similar characteristics.
