Honda Shuttle Kenya: Reviews, Price, Specifications, Import
Honda Shuttle Review
The Honda Shuttle is a 5-Seater Station Wagon that has been in production from 2015 to present. It’s the successor to the Honda Fit Shuttle that was initially tied to the Fit but now it has been spun off as an independent model. It has a few similarities to the Honda Fit, but it has distinct features such as a sharp frontal design and a unique instrument Panel. It comes with a choice of two engine; a 1.5-L L15B petrol engine and a 1.5-Litre L1EB Hybrid Petrol engine and is available in either 2WD or 4WD. It achieves a fuel consumption of 21.8 km/L for the normal engine and 34.0 Km/L for the Hybrid engine.
For Kenyan buyers, the Honda Shuttle is ideal for people with families who are looking for a reliable and spacious wagon. It’s among the most economical in its class and maintenance costs are affordable. It shares engines and components with the Honda Fit and Honda Vezel which makes it easy maintain in Kenya due to this. The only issue I find with the car is the low ground clearance which can be problematic for Kenyan roads. There are ways you can improve ground clearance and you can read more details on ground clearance for cars in Kenya here.

Honda Shuttle Reliability
The Honda Shuttle is generally reliable and few issues have been reported so far. The Hybrid version is reliable when new but it tends to develop problems with age.

Below are the most commonly reported problems with the Honda Shuttle
- CVT Transmission Problems
