i did read that while the new fit has more horsepower, the engine is more efficient now and gets better fuel economy than the previous generation despite having more power.
i'm not sure what technical changes were made to achieve this.

I believe they implemented dual-VTEC (sort of like how the Corolla has dual VVTI on both intake and exhaust sides).
