होंडा जैज़ [2011-2013] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

 

Exterior Its class !!! No other car in the hatchback segment (below 7 lacs) can match it's beauty. Anyway, it's a purely personal choice.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Nothing to comment on it as any Jazz owner can feel it. This one has best in class interiors. The quality of plastics, the color and most of the things you find inside this car is excellent. Honda, as usual never compromise on quality ! You pay little extra and thats what you get.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The only concern here is the low pick-up below 2000rpm. But, as soon as you cross the 2000rpm barrier, it's a charm to drive. Since, I was driving a Santro before this, the low pick-up didn't bother me much as it's much better than Santro 😊. The Fuel economy as shown in the pannel is ~16Km per Lt with AC (all time) in city driving (Navi mumbai and mumbai). But, its not correct. From full tank to full tank calculation, it shows 14 kmpl. Nevertheless, it's OK for me. Gearbox is the smoothest.

Ride Quality & Handling Amaging ride quality. Very easy to drive, it's easier to handle in heavy trafic condition. Very responsive steering, brake and the ABS is excellent. Once, I had to apply sudden brake while driving ~ 70Km/h speed. It was so smooth and I didn't feel that it was a sudden brake. The ABS and EBD is execptional. Like to thank the Honda team for this.

Final Words Just go for it. It's probably the best car in this price range. Don't think, any other car can match it considering all the aspects.

Areas of improvement The pannel should display the true fuel economy. It's not that difficult challange for the Honda engg. guess!

Drive, comfort, fuel economy, interiors and the overall packagetrying to find one !!!

Exterior The car looks awesome and makes every one turn their heads at it when you drive. The front aerodynamic bumpers enriches the looks. The Honda logo in chrome (only in select variant) makes it look even more sporty.The design of head lamps are excellent and they give good vision during night time too. The alloy wheel with 15" tyres adds beauty to the car. The wipers need a special mention here they are very sturdy. the winshield(front glass) looks awesome and huge.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) This car has the best spacing in this segment. The seats are very comfortable and no one would regret during long drives. The rear seat also comes with a reclining option which makes the rear passengers feel at ease during long drives.The rear passengers also have a additional A/C vent under the front seats. The car comes with a beige black interior(Only in Jazz select and Jazz bais version) which gives a rich look to the interior. There are nearly 4 bottle holders and 6 cup holders. 2 cupholders are in front of the A/C vents thus keeps your drink cold enough for hours. The dash board looks magnificent like that in a higher version Honda car. The integrated audio system adds beauty to the existing features, this has a usb input aswell.An ipod is also compatible with this system. There are 2 glove boxes which helps in additional storage.The trip meter has multiple functionalities which includes an average mileage display, Range display(Kms that the car will cover with existing fuel, fuel utilisation meter(between 0 to 40) which shows the amount of fuel that the car consumes while the car is accelerated, a regular trip meter and the total kilometers covered. The most important feature is the magic seats where the rear seat can be folded completely like a bed(Not recommended during driving). This feature gives enough space(you can also bring a cycle inside the car after doing this). the seats can also be lifted which helps you to keep objects that are tall(like your golf kit).This feature makes access easy to the boot from inside. The front seat belts have a height adjuster aswell.The rear seats also comes with the headrests which are comfortable too.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox There is no engine noise when the car stands still(I tried starting the car wehn the engine was on atleast two times and was fooled :)). The engine goes past 100 and reaches 140 effortlessly. After which it slowly loses breath. I clocked 165 on this car with 4 people on board. I beleive this can touch 170 easily with 2 people. Another excellent thing on this car is the gear ratios, ulike the other cars in this segment you can put the 5th gear when the speedo touches 40 and the engine takes the load and doesnt bump.so there will be no frequent gear shifts required during city drive.The gear shifting is very smooth. The Honda as usual comes with loads of safety features like ABS, ESP, airbags, engine immobilizer as a standard fit.

Ride Quality & Handling Like that of other Honda cars the Handling of jazz is excellent. The steering is very comfortable. The audio controls placed on the steering is also perfectly mated.Nobody can pinpoint a mistake in its handling. The suspensions are soft and are very suitable for crusing. Coming to the fuel economy in city under heavy traffic conditions the mileage was 9.5 kmpl and in highways it was 16+. The soft suspension works out well during cornering and during hill drives but gives heavy bumps on bad indian roads(unlike the swift which has hard suspension and is totally opposite to this).

Final Words The only regret in jazz was its pricing. Now after the slash of 1.7 lacs i personally feel its the best car in the segment. There could have been a diesel engine in this segment to make it stand apart from its competitors(Till now theer are no diesel engines from Honda. hope they will unveil it next year). This car is the best in its segment. I can strongly say that once you drive this car you will have no regrets and will not like to drive the others cars in this segment. you will be a proud owner and will get excellent comments from other car owners who drive this one. You will also see people regretting for not buying this car(Mainly i20 petrol, swift petrol owners will regret)

Areas of improvement Rear design can be improved. The rear design seems to be very simple and makes it look like a very small car. The base needs improvement, particularly for indian versions.

Excellent Handling, superb spacing, Magnificent Handling, Loads of new features(Magic seats..etc)Low base(160mm)

I was delivered Jazz after six month of long wait but believe me at no point of time did I ever think of switching to any other car. Honda people discouraged me to switch to City & my friends & relatives also urged me to change cars of their choices. But I stuck to my choice & am very relieved & complacent today  that I'm a proud owner of Jazz. And yes all those who discouraged me to change cars were in awe when they really saw the car for the first time. I don't blame them also as you don't get to see too many Jazz on the roads . Honda also did more harm to this  brand as they are trying to promote only Brio & City for the reasons known only to them. The car is so stylish & probably the only car on the Indian road that matches the western look & what they call Jazzy. Its not sporty as some people might just say, but it is a sports car  as the top speed of 220 km/hr does all the talking apart from its truly aerodynamic look which no Indian car can match in its look.And yes the car is truly a Head Turner. As far as the interior features are concerned, you just name it & it has it. Even the base model has all the features which a Top end of the other brands have. Did you say ABS or alloy wheel, or SRS bags or steering mounted music system or you just name it guys & as I said, it has it. Yes the verdict is JAZZ is trulu JAZZY.

WESTERN LOOKWILL HAVE TO THINK

 

A wonderful package to maneuver the city traffic and enough to manage all challenges thrown by Indian roads.

Best looking hatch, has style, substance and charm. Very well shaped body, evenly distributed with clean flowing body lines, every part is placed in perfect shape, Loaded to brim with many sedans put to shame ABS, EBS, Airbags, Alloy wheel, Steering mounted Music control and full information display on dash. Best part is vehicle comes loaded with Floor mats, Mud flaps. Good fuel economy, very neat and clear gear box though little low traction in 2nd gear. Great handling with ABS playing great hand but suspension is stiff for Indian roads; little softness to suspension will do wonders.

When Honda launched Jazz, there were never any doubts on looks of the car, it’s the pricing which failed the car, now with revised pricing, it has all. Looks, Style, performance, features and reliability Should improve the gear ratio in 2nd and 3rd gear.

Best package, amazing style, quality and spacelil stiff suspension and low gear ratio

Exterior JAZZ Select (Urban Titanium) looks sporty and elegant. People just cant stop staring at it. I feel its like mini version of Innova with perfect curve. Large glass makes it much more attractive.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Excellent interior with things perfectly placed and easy to use. Rear seats are little uncomfirtable for 3 but its reclining feature gives absolute comfort. Fabric cover on doors can get dirty soon which may spoil the look of interiors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Smooth engine as any of premium Honda car though Fuel economy could be better.

Ride Quality & Handling Very stable and smooth riding experience as one can expect from Honda.

Final Words Absolutely Value for Money car with all premium features one can expect in any Hatchback and I am happy to be proud owner of my first car which HONDA JAZZ.

Areas of improvement Should have little more ground clearance but still it cant be excuse for such car.

EverythingGround clearance but not big deal

Exterior...the best Aerodynamic designing,actually i love this beautifull car.its well comfortable dimentions which are easy to drive in city n tight roads,,especially a front quarter glass is a bonus,great useable glass i see the ground from this..

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)I love its interior design and its quality and moreover its practicality,,when i buy it, we go to the GURDWARA SAHIB ,it was a pretty hot day my mineral water bottle was inside of car ,water was so hot ,i fill a glass of water and place in cup holder and after hardly 2 km water was so cold and i thank god to gift me this car really..(great value for money) sound quality is superb great crality and easy reach buttons and steering buttons are joy to use..space is let shame to most sedans..rear seat reclining is great

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox.. A super silent engine ,sometime i had to see RPM meter its is rinning or not ..super silent even not a little viberation,,Performanc is good .a little low rpm torqe issue is appear, overall its great drivebility,fuel economy is good i claim 14.7 km/l in city, highest 23.6 km/l on highway ( without AC at speed 60-70) and full seats loaded i get 20.2 km/l (40 km AC on in 90 km tour)..i think its not good .. its great guys.. 

 

Ride Quality & Handling..ride quality is superb with michelin tyres..great suspention,,super silent cabin,i love it..handling is superb and confident 

 

Final Words..its a world class product... its a quality product for those who know about quality..

 

Areas of improvement Ground clerance,low rpm torque 

 

 

Aerodynamic design,Build quality,intr design,smoth ride,super silent engine,super silent cabinGround clearance but low ground clearance improve ride quality

Exterior

Great aerodynamic design, typical japenese cone shaped nose, Love the side profile the most, looks longer than it actually is(less than polo). Superb tail lamps. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Interiors are thoughtful, ergonomic, classy. Fit and finsh not upto mark for me. Space wise i really dont have to say anything it outclasses most of the midsized sedans, forget the hatchbacks they dont even come close to it. Seats are adequate not the most comfortable though. But magic seats!! ohh boy!! it takes the practicality levels to a different level all together.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Great flexible engine. Good at both sedate city roads driving, or take the free reving engine for a track day it wont dissapoint you one bit!! You may feel avaibility of torque is not adequate at times but once you get a hang of how to use the engine potential and gear ratios its a great car. Sleek gear box add all the more fun.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Not seen a better 'Fine balance' between ride and handling at this price point. Preicise Handling, Great steering feedback, Well weighted steering not too light nor too heavy. Adequate braking power and Pretty good ride quality, takes poth-holes or rough terrain in a typically Hondas pecuiliar way. you want a better ride and handling balance than this you may buy a Laura or even better a BMW please.

Final Words

If you want a car that can take you to office everyday, this is the car(good ride,good manuverability, good fuel efficiency). If you want a car to go for  weekend or outsattion trips with family, this is the car for you(ample space for passengers, big boot and magic seats!! carry your whole world with you) If you want to go for a fast highway Dash then believe me few hatchbacks can even come near the road manners of this car, polo may be. its been 6000kms with this car for me, Every morning i just cant stop loving the interiors of the car, Ergonomic and thoughtful interiors. Fit and finish is not bad but i feel can be improved.

All in all an Excellent ALL ROUNDER.

Areas of improvement  

 Couple of things 1st the obvious is the torque, and 2nd Interior fit and finish.

 

 

Its best in class at fundamentals of a car like engine, ride, handling, aerodynamics, Space, which mTorque is not on tap always, you need to work with gears for enthusiastic style of driving.

 

Exterior The looks are great even though there is not much of a differnce from the old one. the side mirrors are huge and stylish. tats what I liked the most about the exteriors.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The boot space is very spacious for a small car. I own a santro and basically it is nothing compared to it. the seats are well positioned. there is so much of leg room at the back even after reclining it all the way & since I'm tall the main concern was the space behind the driver's seat as I usually recline my seat all the way back.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is smooth, not noisy at all, the gear box is as smooth as the new honda city.

Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality is as good as the city but not there yet. of course when compared to the new swift its any day better. the handling is really easy in the car.

Final Words The car is stylish yet sporty as it is powerfullt packed. The only thing that I didn't like about the car was the way in which the clutch was positioned. I found it to be discomforting as I could not place my foot properly. That's the only reason why I didn't opt for the car.

Areas of improvement The position of the clutch, they should put black n blue leather seats for all the variants. bluetooth connectivity.

The looks, the engine performance, the pick up, boot space, cabin, the price for owning a hondaMileage, the clutch, not very sturdy when compared to the swift

 

Exterior The exteriora are great expecially the small bonnet. It gives so much room to manouver around the car and also the cutsare very smooth.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interior features and the sterio system is gr8. The amberchrome illumination is really attractive. the cup holders and extra glove box space is awesome and can be used to great extent to keep a lot of stuff.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The performance of the car is too good. i just love the drive. I found people saying it has low pick up below 2.5 rev. I didnt find it. May be in the new jazz they have rectified the error or after smetime i mite come to knw. the gearbox is early smooth nd the gear shifts are done by one finger.

Ride Quality & Handling Great ride. I just love it, the handling is good and cutting the car and manouvering it thru traffice is really confortable.

Final Words Awesome car, gr8 quality, just a lil over priced I guess.

Areas of improvement NA.

Great exte3riors and interiors, awesome drivenone so far, a lil overpriced still.
