Honda Jazz Overview

Refinement is ok when driving around town, but wind and road noise starts to increase at higher speeds.


The Jazz’s smart and stylish exterior is emulated inside the cabin. In addition to a driver’s seat which is supportive and adjustable to maximise comfort, interior space is excellent. Head and legroom is plentiful throughout the car, despite its small size. The boot is also very roomy, and is equipped with a multi-functional parcel shelf to aid storage.


A favourable level of equipment is provided, including steering wheel-mounted stereo controls, and the Jazz represents very good value for money.

Background
