New 2014 Honda Jazz

This introduction of new Jazz in Japan, indicating that Honda may also launch the vehicle in India by early 2014. Honda India has already discontinued the previous generation Jazz, and is now aiming to increase its localization to price its vehicles competitive. The lack of diesel engine and high prices are the major reason behind the low sales of Jazz. Even, the company sold its last units at high discounts, which further affects the profit margin of Honda India. This has forced the Japanese maker to remove the Jazz from its Indian lineups.

 

Recently, the press shots of new 2014 Jazz has been leaked out, which suggest that the vehicle will be longer than the current model. It will be 60mm longer, and has a stretched wheelbase. The next-generation Jazz will be powered by the 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel engine, which also does duty in the recently launched Honda Amaze compact sedan. The petrol model will retain the same 1.2-litre i-VTEC engine.
