Honda Jazz TAI test drive report

Price reduction in honda? that too for a new car? i don't think that'll be possible. Based the response for Jazz Honda might even stop plans of bringing bigger engine. We will have to wait and see.

Yesterday i spotted a Jazz, too early for a new car.

havent seen yet any jazz running on road either then test vehicles, any idea hows the response, will check with my friends dealership how is it in my city so far.

I saw 3 honda jazz being delivered within 15 minutes while i was waiting to pick up my cousin's civic which had gone for servicing.

I saw 2 Jazzes in the city, one a black and the other a deep blue.

i too see lots of jazz on road. Mostly the black ones.
And regarding price tags of 1.5 Jazz, Honda wont cut prices of current jazz but might increase citys price and offer the 1.5 Jazz at Current citys rate. Because hondas are not known for reducing prices or offering freebies.

Hey thats good news!
Quite unexpected though but hope it doesn't repeats the story of Skoda's Fabia.

That's the brand image of Honda against Skoda. Honda knows well what to give to get more sales. Thta's the reason people still buy their cars, even after priced very high with less features. Their engines are also one of the reason for them to sell well.

great news, good to see 1000 booking in just a week, i've found few jazzs here and there , but not as much as RITZ when it was launched

When I checked the Jazz out, I didn't like the engine power. Didn't feel like an i-Vtec at all and didn't feel like it had 90 bhp.

Hey what about member "anusha gt500".
Has she got the delivery of her Jazz?

Well I too test drove the jazz, and all I can say is that its a rude shock to the enthusiast.
I mean it neither has low end nor high end performance. I t lacks that oomph factor typical of Honda’s. I mean ig you test drive the ANHC and then the Jazz you wont feel as if you are driving a Honda. Then again it aint underpowered or even overpowered. It will cruise on the highway, but overtaking might be a couse for concern. In the city I don’t think it will give much efficiency, brakes are rather tight and responsice which might take sometime to get used too, the only plus point of the car are its looks which is a typical Honda attribute.
My verdict is that it overall a family car, but its not for the enthusiast also it isn’t much of a pleasure driving it.

Yeah you are right, Jazz can be used as a typical family car.
