The car will compete with Skoda Fabia, Tata Motors Indigo, Ford Fusion, and the upcoming Maruti Ritz. The competition is expected to be fierce in this catagory.

The Honda Jazz is more spacious than other premium hatchbacks, and has safety features like ABS, Honda’s G-CON technology, and airbags to further enahance the sale.

“Jazz will have all the features found in a premium large car. Hatchback customers feel that these cars lack legroom and headroom space which we have addressed in Jazz.

“The car has been designed with a special engine for India to optimize fuel efficiency and power, which delayed the launch by one year. Jazz also comes strapped with a toughened suspension to meet stiff roads conditions in India.

Honda Jazz will be launched on the Honda City platform also featuring V-Tech technology for high fuel efficiency.The Honda Jazz will also be eligible for the 8% excise duty discount under the definition for government’s small car segment.

“The car makers will try to pass the benefit of lower excise duty on Jazz, but 30% of its components are imported and the weak rupee may lead to a higher price.The Honda Jazz will be manufactured at Honda’s mother plant in Greater Noida, whose capacity has been increased to 1 lakh units per annum.

The Honda Jazz is avaiable in the international market in three variants, the Honda Jazz GLi, VTi, and the Jazz Vti-S. Honda will allow its customers a certain level of customization including navigation system, in-car entertainment, sporty tyres and other gizmos at the dealer level.

Initialy, Honda Jazz will be launched with manual transmission, followed by an automatic transmission version in the tiems to come. The diesel version of Honda Jazz will also be launched by2011.Going by the current trend amongst premium hatches, the Jazz will be competing directly with the Skoda Fabia, the yet-to-be-launched Fiat Grande Punto and the Hyundai i20. Honda had declared some time ago that from now on, all Honda cars in India will be powered by VTEC engines. Going by this statement, the new 1.2l engine will be something worth waiting for.

This much awaited hatch that shares its platform with the new Honda City is expected to be powered by a specially-developed 1200cc engine. Honda had showcased the Jazz as a concept at the Auto Expo 2008 in New Delhi. The sheer volume of inquiries proves that the Jazz is one of the most awaited Hondas to be launched in the country. Honda cars have become well-known to the Indian car buyer over the last decade with their reliability, economy and performance. Everyone is looking forward to see the new Honda Jazz as soon possible
