Honda Jazz, after its second iteration in 2009, is coming back, and it is expected to be launched in April 2015. Honda Jazz did pretty well in the first year of its second iteration, but it was the rising petrol prices that forced it to say goodbye to the Indian auto market. But now, the car is coming with a new spirit, a thorough makeover, and overall with the momentum to bring great heights of competition to Maruti Suzuki Swift and Hyundai Grand i10.
The upcoming car is expected to come well equipped with alloy wheels, body coloured bumpers, front fog lamps (present only in Jazz X), body coloured tailgate spoiler, front grille, outside rear view mirrors, green glass, rear micro antenna and mud flaps. As you can see, some very common things are present while some new features have been added in the new Jazz. Coming to its interiors, Titan/Black interior colour is the very first thing that catches your eye. You can also find integrated audio with AM/FM CD MP3 + AUX-in, USB port (only in Jazz X), steering mounted audio control, front and rear speakers, auto volume by speed, magic seats and some usual stuff in the newcomer.
Just like its other models, Honda has paid a special attention to the safety and security of its new car. With this new model, you get HondaCare extended warranty – 2 years standard warranty + 2 years extended warranty or 80,000 km (whichever is earlier) as standard and also the HondaCare Roadside Assistance – 4 years Roadside Assistance as standard. Moreover, the car has several other features like dual front SRS Airbags, ABS with brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution system, G-Force control technology, ECU Immobilizer and driver seat belt reminder, to ensure a safe journey of the passengers.
Along with, the comfort features like air conditioner with heater, tilt steering column, drive-by-wire, average fuel consumption display and headlight height adjuster are also expected to be there in the new Jazz. With all these features anticipated to be present in the new Jazz, industry experts are of a view that it will come up as a stiff competitor against the Maruti Suzuki Swift and Hyundai Grand i10.
