Well for a start it doesn’t use a continuously vocal transmission (CVT) like the old car. It doesn’t actually have a gearbox at all. The 1.5-litre petrol engine basically acts as a generator, providing battery charge for the powerful electric motor, which at lower speeds is the sole means of propulsion. Kind of like a BMW i3 REX. So around town the...
It’s a simple solution to the problem of getting a hybrid system to fit in a small engine bay, one Renault solved with a techgasm of multimode, clutchless dog ‘box in the Clio E-Tech. Of course, packaging is an even greater consideration in something like the Jazz which trades on interior space efficiency. Chuck a load of batteries under the back s...
Not quite – this model loses about 50 litres of bootspace compared with the outgoing Jazz, so there’s 304/1205 litres with the seats up and down. That’s trumped by the VW Group trio of Polo, Fabia and Ibiza. Practicality in this car has always been more than just the numbers though, thanks to those party-piece folding seats. Because the fuel tank i...
And that was before the raft of chassis tweaks this car has undergone – more high strength steel in the platform, lower friction suspension components for less vibration, and a brake-based torque vectoring system. It’s still no Ford Fiesta – it won’t lift a wheel on a roundabout (don’t ask me how I know that) but the basic recipe for fun is there. ...
Yes and that’s no accident – the thin rimmed, two-spoke wheel is identical, as is the strong horizontal shape of the dashboard. The 7.0-inch dial screen has no visor, so there’s nothing interrupting your view, but it does mean some of the gauges can be a little hard to read in direct sunlight. The major contributor to the better view out is the sha...
That’s probably enough evangelising about – what should be – a fairly inconsequential runabout. Thing is though for a while now the Jazz has been peak Honda. Full of clever solutions for its customers, whether they live in a city and need maximum interior versatility in a car that fits in a tiny parking space, or simply want an economical car that’...

Honda e:HEV full hybrids are self-charging, drawing power from the combustion engine and from regenerative braking. There’s no need for a mains electricity supply, saving you time and hassle. More efficient. The Jazz hybrid delivers up to 550 miles* on a full tank and achieves CO2 emissions from just 82 (g/km).
