i can not recollect where did i read, but honda CEO had mentioned sometime that they are planning 2 small cars. one of them in 2009 - which is fit/jazz and another smaller one - this may be the other one FIT

Honda-tif - the car looks good.
Thats a total photoshopped image. Look at the grill and bonnet. I am pretty sure Honda would introduce something much better.

from the front view to me it really looks like a concept car, which will never going to make its debut, but it seems honda also felt the burnt , and also wanted to taste the A segment numbers, all the best Honda

THe news is true but the car is still a PS job by Paultan. Its not official Honda stuff. he's taken stuff from teh Jazz and the G3 City and massaged it.

Honda already makes an A seg car for JDM only called the Life. This will be a cheaper 3rd world version of it.

This is a hoax, folks.

Have a look at the Pininfarina BO electric vehicle shown at the 2008 Paris Motor Show ... Pininfarina B0 - 2008 Paris Auto Show

A Honda City grill has been photoshopped on.

The person who's name appears on the images, if googled, is shown to be a photoshop artist of sorts.

Cheers,

A little off-topic - If a word spelled backwards is the same as it is spelled forward, like "civic", it is a palindrome. If it is a word like "not" that reverses to "ton", it is just a word spelled backward. There are words like Heteropalindromes (also known as semordnilaps, semi-palindromes, half-palindromes, reversegrams, mynoretehs, reversible anagrams, word reversals, or anadromes) used to describe words which form a word when spelled backwards but there is no special word for it - at least no word that has stood up long enough to justify its inclusion in a respectable dictionary.

Incidentally, TIF isn't even a word in the English language, TIFF is.

On the Honda small car front – as mentioned earlier by Mpower in this thread, the Honda Life Dunk seems to be the most likely choice or perhaps the Honda Zest (which is essentially a Kei Car).
