GREAT CVT CAR AND THE MOST PRACTICAL HATCH

Exterior

 the exterior is very matured and has a very sporty and well plantedd stance. gives a big andd strong car feel. somehow a premium company like honda is not offering mud flaps as a standard fitment which didnt feel good otherwise it was a good value for money. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 feautres are not out of the world nor futuristic compared to a hyundai but whatever is given works good. the infotainment display is very cheap looking was expecting it would be more refined and we cant upload more than 3 wallpapers that too only of a particular resolution of jpeg. the music system is decent and phone connectivity is decent too but not great. would have been nice if given a bigger glove box and a cooled one.

space should never be an issue in jazz as there is ample space and you would be surprised at the airy feel of the cabin especially the front seats are like recliners and offer good support and comfort.

when it comes to comfort car is very comfortable and there is very less road noise and the auto ac works very good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 the engine is very good and typical honda like very smooth, no noise, instant start, great power overall a very refined motor.

fuel economy for a cvt car the jazz cvt is decent enough and when driven with a light foot it gives great mileage. i get around 13-15 in city conditions and on highway i consistently get 17-19kmpl with ease. but if u use it in sports mode it will drop to as low as 10kmpl in city and 15kmpl on highway.

the gearbox is super smooth and slick. as with any cvt there is a slight bit of rubber band effect but once u get momentum it is next to nil. the paddle shifters are good to use especially if u need to overtake in D mode or if u want to upshift earlier but then again depending on your accelerator push the car decides the best gear ratio to get maximum fuel efficiency and good power.

Ride Quality & Handling

 ride quality is smooth and decent so as handling. very stable till speeds of 135kmph which i tried till now and it goes with ease without any signs of strain on the engine.

there is a bit of body roll but only if u drive rash and irresponsible. 

Final Words

 a great car and value for money. perfect if u r looking for luxury in the 10lakh range.

Areas of improvement  

 the plastics need to improved. installation of eco systems like start stop system and button start with cruise control which will be in line honda earth dreams of fuel efficient vehicles. music system and display can be improved a lot in line with honda's qulaity. need to get better headlights like led or xenon projector , DRL'S.
