Jazzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!

Review by Ankur Verma on 21/6/2010

5DR HAT 1.2 i-VTEC S VSA

Review

The car is good, but you can get much better car for this price tag. I mean, if we look at the features, like the engine, the styling, the design, the quality etc, much better was expected from Honda if they are charging this much. Definitely not up to the expectations.

Favourite Features

Very much spacious, good engine as always expected from Honda. Great fuel economy, smooth and noiseless ride.

Suggested Improvements

PRICE!! Biggest improvement required in this car. Other features like alloys, and some more safety features should have been there.

Jazz - Will it really Jazz you?

Review by Anirudh Dheman on 5/5/2010

Review

Well yeah this car has been jazzing a lot in the past few months, but does it really live up to the hype that Honda has created for it? This car is definitely not worth the buck as the price tag of this car is slightly on the upper side than its competitors. It does have good and unique styling.
The suspension has been made extremely well, sometimes even makes it better than the suspension of Civic. It has nice foot lights reading out "Jazz" as soon as the door is opened. The boot space is also amazing. The car may be good but the price tag isnt that attractive. JAZZ is kitten with 1198 C.C. engine that delivers just 40-45 Bhp at 3000 RPM, where maximum driving is done. The heavy price and the engine definitely gives it a thumbs down.

Favourite Features

Refined Engine, Impeccable Build Quality, Abundant Space, Safety Features, Spacious, High Ground Clearance, Honda's (Over) Confidence, Great Style, Top Notch Finish, Noiseless, Smooth, Great Fuel Economy, Amazing interior space managed intelligently, stand out style, thrifty drinker, good performance, stupendous space, the cup holders are amazing, tail lamps speak wide out.

Suggested Improvements

Pricing. Needs a better engine to improve ride quality, should have alloys, climate control, should have auto paddle shift, should have parcel tray, should have seat height adjuster, should have company given fog lamps.

Honda Jazz

Review by Mr. Leslie Marvill. on 27/4/2010

Vehicle

5DR HAT 1.4 i-VTEC ES i-SHIFT

Review

Excellent holding and handling even in snow. Very nippy 1.4 engine, palm of the hand power steering, roomy interior and moderately comfortable seating make for a quite enjoyable ride. Once the rear seats are folded there is more than adequate room for domestic items. All in all, a very reliable and above average small multi-purpose vehicle.

Favourite Features

Reliability, light power-steering and excellent road-holding. Very good handling even in snowy conditions. Ease of folding rear seats to accomodate larger items in the back.

Suggested Improvements

Rear door (hatch) to be made lighter or easier to close. Rear screen wiper/wash jet nozzle to be positioned more centrally to improve water coverage.

The Jazz.

Review by Raj Kapoor on 18/2/2010

5DR HAT 1.2 i-VTEC S VSA

Review

The Jazz by Honda is really a good car. It is smooth and very spacious. Looks are awesome. The fuel consumption is accetable. The Jazz can be worked on a lot. It is a good car but some of its features are not acceptable like the price and no automatic transmission even at such a high price

Favourite Features

It is very comfortable and the overall performance is good. Interiors are good, comfortable and satisfactory. The looks are also great.

Suggested Improvements

The price can be lowered to a great extent. The fuel usage can be worked on. It lacks automatic transmission. There is no provision for changing the seat height.

Pleasure to Drive

Review by Bryan Timmin on 11/12/2009

5DR HAT 1.4 i-VTEC ES

Review

Really enjoy driving this car, it's road handling is excellent and it is very economical on fuel. It looks great externally. Internally, controls are laid out well and there is plenty of room for passengers front and back, and also a fair bit of space in the boot. One or both of the rear seats can be folded level to the boot, which is perfect for transporting larger items.

Favourite Features

As already mentioned, the folding seats would have to be the Jazz's best feature. The car also appears to heat up and de-mist very quickly on cold winter mornings.

Suggested Improvements

The model I own (55) did not offer a larger engine and sunroof at the time, but I notice the latest model seems to have addressed this.

My first car: Jazz!

Review by Coralie Loader on 7/12/2009

Vehicle

5DR HAT 1.4 i-VTEC ES

Review

I have had my Jazz for about two years and it has proved to be a very reliable car!!! It is my first car. It is very economical and the petrol goes far (and I drive quite a distance daily). My favourite thing about this car is that it is very spacious. I am very tall and have sooo much room. I would recommend this car.

Favourite Features

The back seats come down to extend the boot space....it is a perfect car for if you are moving house or doing a car boot!!! There is masses of leg room in the front seats. I would say if you have a young family then this car would definitley be recommended.

Suggested Improvements

Vision when parking is terrible and is the only fault I have. You cant see the front of the bonnet when you are parking up.

Jazz it Up

Review by Jane on 7/12/2009

Vehicle

5DR HAT 1.4 i-VTEC ES

Review

From the first day it has been a dream to drive, once I got over starting the car by pressing the brake and then turning the key. It has a lovely smooth drive - road uneveness is not noticeable. All in all it is pleasurable to drive.

Favourite Features

The ease with which the rear seats can be folded away to make a space in the well of the car - especially when transporting the dogs - they love it.

Suggested Improvements

Another pocket back of driver's seat. Somehow more places for storing cleaning materials (e.g. dusters, wipes, etc).

Nice Car

Review by David McDougall on 6/12/2009

Vehicle

5DR HAT 1.2 i-VTEC S VSA

Review

Love this model, I like the shape of it. The inside is spacious for the size of the model, with the boot large enough for all required. The steering wheel and gear stick are bang in the right place so making it easy to drive. The alloys top off the look just pefect. It's as all Hondas are a quality running car and I have had no problems with mine in the 2 years of owning it.

Favourite Features

My favourite features are as already stated in my review the alloys and shape. The boot is large and the seats are comfy with plent of room in the vehicle.

Suggested Improvements

Improvements would be the CD player, it's not the nicest looking. Also the back shelf, with it not being solid is not the best for placing heavy objects on.

Spacious versatility

Review by Paul Adams on 6/12/2009

5DR HAT 1.2 i-VTEC S VSA

Review

The Honda Jazz is a marvellous little car with a big heart! It is small enough to be easy to drive around town yet has big car manners with it's handling. It is economical and very reliable. Inside is where all the action happens though. It has an ingenious system of seat folding meaning it can be very quickly and easily transformed to carry a whole range of loads, from bikes to fridge freezers to beds!

Favourite Features

The seat folding mechanism is second to none. So easy to use and so incredibly versatile. I have fitted no end of weird and wonderful things in there from Christmas trees to bunk beds (dismantled) to workbenches and tumble driers.

Suggested Improvements

Maybe just a few little extras such as "follow me home" lights or other things like that. The car itself however is absolutely superb and I am very pleased with it. I'll be keeping it for a good few yers yet!

Great car!

Review by Paul Ellis on 3/12/2009

Vehicle

5DR HAT 1.4 i-VTEC ES

Review

I bought this new 3 years ago, and really cannot fault it. For a small car there is incredible headroom, and excellent legroom in the back. Reliability seems to be a Honda byword, and it certainly applies to the Jazz. This was my first ever Honda, and it won't be my last.

Favourite Features

Tardis-like interior. Rear seats fold down at the touch of a button. Great air conditioning. Electric mirrors.

Suggested Improvements

It tends to mist up quite quickly inside. It would be great if the electric mirrors contracted automatically when the engine is switched off.
