Japanese automaker, Honda is working on the next-generation Jazz (Honda Fit) which is likely to be launched in 2019-2020. Japan’s Best Car magazine has released a speculative rendering on the next-generation Honda Jazz. Current model was first unveiled in 2013, later received a facelift in mid-2017. The speculative rendering previews the possible design of the fourth generation Jazz model.
The next-gen Honda Jazz’s rendered image comes with a newly designed front fascia, which is in-line with the latest Honda design language. This design was introduced with the new Honda Civic, Clarity and Accord sedans. For people not in the know, Honda is also working on the next-gen City sedan.
At the front, the car gets wing-shaped LED headlights and signature chrome grille and slimmer radiator grille. Other design highlights include prominent hood lines, rectangular lower air dams and a redesigned bumper. While the current model’s side profile looks MPV-ish, the rendered fourth-gen Honda Jazz looks better and sportier. The image has four-part greenhouse with a European 5-seat mini-MPV profile. There is a strong character line that runs across the length to merge into the tail-lamps, which gives it a sporty profile. Read – New Honda Jazz Electric In The Works; To Offer 300km Range – Report
