హోండా జాజ్ [2011-2013] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

Exterior I have liked the looks of the car rightfrom the day I saw it first in flesh ! The design is contemporary and futuristic,so don't worry about the jazz ageing soon. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The most amazing part of this jazz is its interiors. Get into the car once and I bet u will fall in love with the Jazz - fit n finish, excellent Honda quality evident in each N every component,  excellent design of dashboard, almost romantic lighting of theconsole dashboard - all of these are sure to impress u!

If this wasn't enough, u will be amazed by the space of the car!!! 3 adults n a toddler can comfortably sit with enough legroom for a 6 footer driver n a 6 footer rear seat occupant. The width is easily as much as the Ertiga (I took test drives of both cars within an hours interval

Seats are comfortable, but a little more padding wud have helped. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Just one word must suffice  for the engine performance - Honda!!!! It's pure refinement at play, super slick gear box is apleasure to use. Fuel economy should be around 14 in city and 17 highway, not great, but I can liver with it. 

Ride Quality & Handling Effortless!!! The symmetry of the overall package comes into effect while u drive this beauty. Space,premium comfort, quality, refinement and the pride of driving a Honda sure will give a HIGH!

Final Words Test drive and u will buy it ;)

Areas of improvement Honda should do a lot more to promote the Jazz, just to help those bench sitters to come over and make a decision to buy the car! There is immense pressure on a middle class family 'against' going for the jazz due to price-value perception and 'kitna deti hai' attitude. Honda needs to make it easier for the interested buyers to increase sales of Jazz.

Exterior Excellent but a slightly light metal body- can feel it by lifting the bonet.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Awesome, you would love to sit in the car, ample space, very good interiors and excellent music system.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very quite engine, if driven smoothly can give upto 21kmpl, responsive steering and gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent responsive steering and engine, slightly underpowered in lower gears, but if you are a smooth driver wont feel it.

Final Words Value for money. almost every imaginable feature present in car.

Areas of improvement Honda needs to give dealership to people who love cars and respect people. Pathetic experience with dealer. Told me would give delivery in 1 month and then after 28 days told would take another 3 months and mine was the first delivery at the new showrrom opened and delivered a car to someone else. finally had to complain in Honda and received the car in 10 min. (was told would take another 2 months atleast but was arranged a car by the corporate manager after complaining within 2 days). Poor after sales response and pathetic people to deal.

I was looking for a third car in the family the other two being ALTO and new Indica vista. Shortlisted and did TD of following petrol cars except punto diesel - Swift, POLO, punto (D), jazz and i20. 

Exterior Jazz -  Looks really big even though it is smaller than punto, Polo or i 20. Design is futuristic and will stay for years.

Others - good. Again exterior looks are subjective.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Jazz -  Its even big. It has space space and more space for 5 full grown adults and tons of baggage. Plenty of leg room both front and rear. Front row is really huge. Jazz gives gives you that BIIIGG feeling when sitting either front or rear...And glass all around makes u feel sittinig in open space.  Dash resembles a cockpit.

Polo, Punto, Swift - Great front seats with plenty of leg space. DASH for polo and Swift are superb. Punto has a bland dash. POLO is really well built with good interiors. Build quality is robust.

Swift,Punto is cramped with low plastics.Does`nt give a rich feel.

Back row of all 3 are real cramped with Swift taking the price and punto better of the 3.  I thought I wud suffocate to death sitting back row for Swift. POLO and Swift are for two adults and 2 kids below 10. Even the ergonomics of these cars are such that on paper these are bigger or equal to jazz they are really cramped for space in rear.

i20 - Super front seats with so many features and decent space in rear. Reasonable space at rear for 3.

Swift has the worst boot of all.

Special mention of inbuilt music system of JAZZ.. It is awesome.. It is as good as custom made music system. The rest have mediocre music systems and some day or very soon u will end end up replacing them with custom ones.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Swift - Really good. Its a drivers car anywhere. Power available at tap of pedal. Best fuel economy. It has best of both world engine performance and fuel economy. Very smooth gear box.

Polo - Again a drivers car on high ways.  Very stable at high speeds. Poor fuel economy. Good gear box. Engine gets very noisy at higher speeds.

i20 - I defnitely did not like its engine performance either in traffic or highway. Below par perfomer when compared to others. I cannot really explain why but I was really disappointed as I am a big fan of i10.

Punto (D) - Again a drivers car on high ways.  Very stable at high speed. Not suitable on heavy traffic(even though u dont have to change gears becuase of high torque, it feels really heavy in traffic) there is some hesitancy to move on..It just rolls.  Very sluggish in 2nd gear.

Jazz - Not a drivers car. It has enough power though.A very relaxed engine and is in no hurry. Butter smooth gear box, decent fuel economy (14kl/l and I have clocked only 150Km so far. Shud get more as engine gets tuned). Can get sluggish at low speeds if not changed to lower gears.  Engine is super silent. U can mistake engine to be off when idling..At any speed cabin noise is  very very very low compared to other cars here.. And that alone gives a very good driving and riding experience.

Ride Quality & Handling Polo - Ride quality is very good and best of all cars compared here. Handling is also top notch.

Swift, i20, Punto - Good.

Jazz - It floats. The big glass panels, large interiors, virtually no engine noise gives u a serene feeling of gliding :).. No joke this..

Final Words If every one thought the way I did, Jazz wud have been the best seller by now :) but its the other way as Jazz is also the costliest hatchback in indianmarket.. If u want a very good car and EXCLUSIVITY then JAZZ it is !!!

Areas of improvement If u are feature savvy , then can ask for list of features like i20. i20 in reality is adding up all features to mask its poor performance.

Updated :: Did two long drive since

1. Chennai - Guruvayoor and back :: 1370 Km.. Avg mileage :: 16.8 km\l on the whole. Avg speed : 110km/hr : no of persons - 2adults + 1 kid ...Completed first service - Just washing (no oil change)

2. Chennai - Vellore Sreepuram and back :: 310km .. Avg speed : 90km/hr : no of persons - 5 adults + 2 kids (both 5yr old) Here is the big surprise....Onward journey was 18.1Km/l while return was 20.4km/l till we entered Chennai after which it dropped to 19.2.. All these are reading from console.

I`m still surprised. Total Km covered till date : 2200Km. By the way avg mileage in Chennai while travelling to office and back during peak office hours with full A/c on is 13.5 km/l

Exterior

Shortlisted Figo Diesel, Honda city and Fiesta Diesel to buy. The priorities changed after seeing a Honda Jazz parked near the Theatre where we went for a movie. I and my wife got blown away by the beauty of the car. Researched extensively in internet. Did not come across through a very serious complaint about the car in any of the forum. Booked the vehicle in April first week from olympia honda,ambattur ( chennai) after having a short drive in my friend's jazz. Got the car delivered on April 26th, 2012 and

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Space: 3 ppl can sit very comfortably in the rear seat . Drove with 5 ppl sitting in the car and with luggage  for 3 hrs yesterday, yet ould not find any difference with the increased load. Essential features loaded in the vehicle. Powerful A/C and Audio system.

Jazz x loaded with height adjustment feature for driver seat, autofolding mirrors and fog lamps.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Super smooth Gear box. Drove in chennai city only that too during peak traffic hours and mostly in 2nd and 3rd gears. Average Mileage as shown is 11.6 kms. All the features like range, instantenous average kpl and

Ride Quality & Handling

 Have driven most of the hatchback cars, high end sedans till date. Ride quality of Jazz can't be compared to any other hatch back model. Ideal for a hazzle free city drive

Final Words

 As given in the title, it is a hatch back sedan.

Areas of improvement  

 It is truly a premium hatch back with all its essential features

Exterior Excellent looks, Long and I am 6,2 still my head does not touches the roof...On second thoughts I Believe that this hatchback beats all hatchbacks in this class and also some sedan of lower classes.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Excellent colour combination and specially the blue black interior which makes it look saniel. Its music system just waves the seats and blast up the car...with AUX Port, USB, AM, FM, CD Player.

Very good Air Conditioner with very affective AC. And moreover its features ae countless. Only one thing absent that would really add up to its excellence That Is LUMBER SUPPORT IN the seats.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very good engine even after a year, Smooth driving pleasue and no voice in the cabin.Flows on the road which gives a feeling of driving it into Water.

Ride Quality & Handling What to say about quality and style of Honda. I just can say that Honda has Nothing to compare!!! Just Love HONDA.

Final Words Eventually, I can only conclude that this is the best car in its range of hatchbacks and was new the day I Brought it and still after 1+1/2 years it is new!!!!!

Areas of improvement Mileage, and ground clearance.
