AI-assisted review
Overall practical rejection assumes doors and hatch shut and a usable, safe car; it acknowledges squeezing the board in with the hatch cracked open, not a fully enclosed transport fit.
Literal evidence from this attempt
No, not with the doors and hatch shut and the car usable.
Exact final answer
No, not with the doors and hatch shut and the car usable.
A 3rd-gen GM6 Fit is famously roomy for its size but it is still a sub-compact hatch.
With the 60/40 Magic Seats folded flat the usable box you get is about
* Length behind the front seatbacks ~ 73.3 in / 186 cm
* Width at the floor ~ 41.7 in / 106 cm, ~36.8 in between the wheel wells
* Height to the roof ~ 39.4 in / 100 cm
That is a 52.7 cu ft load floor. The longest straight line you can get on the load floor is the floor diagonal:
sqrt(73.3² + 41.7²) ≈ 84 in / 214 cm
and the longest 3-D diagonal you can get inside the box with the rear seats folded is
sqrt(73.3² + 41.7² + 39.4²) ≈ 92-94 in / 234-238 cm
Even if you put the front passenger Magic Seat in the flat “long” position you only get to about 88-96 in of clear interior length from the hatch opening to the dash, and the hatch opening itself is only ~34.7 in wide x ~28.5 in high.
The KARLBY 98" is 98.0 in x 25 5/8 in x 1 1/2 in. The 25 5/8 in depth will go through the hatch, but the 98 in length is ~4-6 in longer than the longest interior diagonal you can actually use with all apertures closed. In the real world that means ~4-8 in of the board will be sticking out the back or up into the footwell, and you will have to remove the front passenger headrest, fold the seat fully forward and tilt the steering wheel.
That is the reason you see the “it just fits” anecdotes. With the rear seats down, the front passenger seat folded flat and the board put in at a steep angle, nose up towards the windscreen, a 97-98 in board can be *squeezed* in, but it will be essentially wedged and the hatch has to be left cracked open a few inches. It is not a safe, legal closed-car load.
If you need the car closed you need a clear ~100 in of interior length. A small van, a pickup with the tailgate down, or a 1/4-sheet rental is the practical way to move a full 98 in KARLBY. If you are determined to try it, cut the board to 96 in or less first.
