In Singapore, this car is available as a parallel import, meaning that it isn\u2019t officially imported, but still available to buy in the dealerships. Thanks to its JDM roots, Honda Shuttle is available in right-hand drive only, which makes it eligible for import to Singapore. Despite the fact Honda officially imports a very similar model called Mobilio, Honda Shuttle is still a popular choice in Singapore. So, what does it offer?\r\n<h1><\/h1>\r\n<h1>At A Glance<\/h1>\r\n<strong>Upsides<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Engine<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Drive train<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<strong>Downsides<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Trim levels<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Safety<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4803\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"autowp-ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-265x198.jpeg 265w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-696x522.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_2-560x420.jpeg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\r\n<h1>Design 4.0 \/ 5.0<\/h1>\r\nHonda's current design language is aggressive, quirky, and futuristic, and so is the Honda Shuttle. With character lines that suggest a much more powerful car, this Honda looks quite attractive, especially considering its class. While the aggressiveness will maybe put some buyers off, Honda\u2019s sales success proves that the company knows exactly what\u2019s doing. As on the outside, Honda Shuttle looks good on the inside too. Material quality is great, and the car is also quite practical, which is a must for the class.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4805\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"autowp-ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-265x198.jpeg 265w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-696x522.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-560x420.jpeg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/h1>\r\n<h1>Engine and drivetrain 5.0 \/ 5.0<\/h1>\r\nHonda Shuttle is offered with a 1,5l i-vTEC DOHC petrol engine with 130hp, which is more than adequate for its class and size. The power transmits through the front wheels via CVT transmission, which has become class standard. Also, the car weighs just 1,130kg, which means it can easily take off, and that makes it a great city car, where swift acceleration is valued more than top speed. When it comes to consumption and emissions, Honda Shuttle does 4.6 liters per 100 km, with claimed CO<sub>2 <\/sub>emissions at 119 g\/km. Consumption-wise, it\u2019s also worth noting that the Shuttle Hybrid, which by the way isn\u2019t imported to Singapore, manages to do 2.9 l\/100km per Honda\u2019s claims. All in all, petrol-only Shuttle provides enough power, combined with relatively low consumption.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4802\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"autowp-ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-265x198.jpeg 265w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-696x522.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_1-560x420.jpeg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/h1>\r\n<h1>Safety 3.0 \/ 5.0<\/h1>\r\nWhen it comes to safety, Honda Fit is considered a safe car.

For example, there\u2019s no satellite navigation, electric seats, keyless start, Bluetooth connectivity, nor USB port. On the other hand, there\u2019s the reverse camera, knockdown rear seats for added cargo space, smart key and retractible mirrors, which is adequate equipment for budget oriented buyers.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4805\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"autowp-ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-80x60.jpeg 80w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-265x198.jpeg 265w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-696x522.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/autowp.ru_honda_fit_shuttle_8-560x420.jpeg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\r\n<h1>Conclusion<\/h1>\r\nDespite its flaws concerning poor trim options and limited safety, Honda Shuttle is still a very good budget MPV.
