“No way! Honda announces the “”Fit RS””! The flashy “”RS badge and orange color”” is great! Many people were disappointed by the April Fool’s Day story.
Honda “”Fit RS”” is back! What is the truth in that post…
April 1 is “”April Fool’s Day”” every year, and every year when this day arrives, various interesting posts involving lies are made on social networking sites.
On this day in 2022, we found an interesting tweet on Twitter.
So cool! See 31 images posted of the new Honda Fit RS with a flashy custom look .Mr. Kuruma built the “”Fit RS”” based on the Chinese-spec “”Fit Sport””
It read, “”Honda announces the Fit RS! It has the same 1.5 turbo as the Civic with 6MT. The price is 2.1 million yen”” was posted along with an image.
Replies to this post included, “”Oh, I expected this!””, “”Seriously? Many people have been successfully fooled by this post.
The contributor explains how he made this post as follows.
I thought that if I posted on April Fool’s Day that the Fit RS would be on sale, there might be a lot of people who would fall for it, so I posted this.
The “”RS grade,”” the sporty grade of the Fit, was a specification that was available in the second and third generations, and disappeared from the lineup when the current, fourth-generation model was fully remodeled in 2020.
The Fit RS, with its refined ride and sporty exterior, is actually being mentioned here and there that it may be revived around the summer of 2022.
Many people are very eager to see such a revival of the Fit RS, which is why this post has caught the attention of so many people.
The aforementioned poster also said that after posting this tweet, he realized that the response was more than he had expected, and that he did not expect to receive such a response from so many people.
On the other hand, in the messages in the quoted retweets and replies, there were so many people who said, “”I was happy because I thought the Fit RS was really going to be released, and then I was disappointed when I realized it was April Fool’s Day.”” The poster said that while he was happy that people were happy, he was also sorry for the amount of response he had received. I felt so bad,”” he says.
The reason so many people were fooled by the post probably has a lot to do with the clever image the contributor created.
The image was created by compositing the RS emblem, a Japanese-spec cosmetic license plate, and the wheels used on the RS grade of the N-ONE, also by Honda, onto a Honda Fit Sport sold for the Chinese market.
The Fit Sport went on sale in China in August 2020, but this model is not available in Japan.
The fact that the Fit Sport is not well known in Japan is one of the reasons why many people have been fooled.

The poster who posted this tweet said, “”Hopefully Honda will build on this response and come out with a Fit RS!”” said, once again, that many people are looking forward to the return of the Fit RS.”
