Honda Jazz reviews

very economical and versatile internal layout.easy to park and manoevure.Good ride but can be slow to accelerate unless the revs are up however I did have a 2litre engine in my previous car.This model(2012) a great improvement on my last Honda in ride and performance.I love my Honda Jazz.

This is an amazing car. It drives well, it's reliable and economical. It has amazing flexibility in terms of room. I can't recomemnd it too highly.

Had to buy the current Jazz 'cos it suited all our requirements (tho' a wee bit expensive for it's class). We're 'SKI'ers' who found no need to continue with bigger and faster vehicles (apart from an S2000 and NT650V). From the load of cars we looked at, and of all those we tried, the Jazz was easiest to get in & out of, nicest to be in for town, country and motorway (with much improved ride and reduced wind noise). It's thoroughly practical and good looking too. Oh, the wee V-tec runs 'sweet as a nut' - and then some.

The Jazz the is deceptively spacious inside. I like the firm seats and versatile rear seat arrangement. It is quiet running,economical, easy to park. I've been able to carry a wheelchair behind the front seat and get a disability scooter in the boot, Drawback? Front pillars can interfere with line of sight.

I love the Honda Jazz for it's reliability, economy and practicality, not to mention it's good looks! I would be very likely to buy another one but next time would go for a larger engine; 1200cc is ok for around town and without a load but it sometimes struggles a bit if carrying passengers or a heavy load. The very easy and practical way the back seats fold down is great!

I am happy with my current car. Its a small car but very roomy inside and has good flexible store both in the boot and inside the car. It also has a high spec for a "small" car. It is quite economical to run.

very good runabout car. only 2 complaints 1. the heater is poor 2. the windows steam up in winter worse than any other car i've owned

Compact car but seat configuration allows many domestic type large loads to be carried. Very good petrolconsumption figures. Very reliable, have had two now and never broken down.

Part of the controls on dashboard are very well designed, some are occulded from view when driven by smaller person due to steering wheel spoke design. Use of red indication figures on black on speedometer is a bad choice as contrast at dusk or in bright sunlight is very bad. Yellow on Black would have been better.

The Honda Jazz is small, but not too small. Good mpg. The Honda garage is near and readily available if needed.

I use a car for getting from A to B as reliably, comfortably and cheaply as possible. Performance is not an issue. For my purposes, the Jazz is an excellent car.

This is a very versatile car. Lots of room in the back. The seats are very comfortable. Materials used are of very good quality. It offers fairly good visibility all around. The engine, although under powered, is very quiet. Fuel economy is very good. It offers exceptional reliability. Would recommend it without any hesitaion.

The jazz is very suitable for the lifestyle that my wife and I live. From shopping trips to moving luggage and equipment, including a full size bicycle when the rear seats are folded. The cruise control is a great asset when driving on motorways in France, where we often travel to visit relatives. We intend to purchase the same model within the next two years.

i have never encountered a car that you cannot get spares for, getting tyres is a nightmare, i have to order the tyres and then give up my car for a morning to get them changed, no quick change tyre centre holds the tyres, they are 3 choices and all cost near £100 each. My battery died last, the aa came out to me, they couldn't get a battery, again had to order one in, so again the car off road. this car has been off the road longer than all my other cars put together. oh yes i live in cambridge, so i find it amazing that 8 tyre change shops didn't hold my tyre size. God help me if i need a replacement away from home, as the tyre weld i have, instead of spare tyre, will probably not work, totally awful, cant wait to get rid of it

This car was selected for its economy, but compromises in other areas are minimal. Average fuel consumption of over 50mpg under mixed driving is easily achieved, as long as you want no more than to keep up with the traffic. Put your foot down, get the revs up and there is adequate performance at the expense of fuel consumption, but at least there is a choice. Handling is adequate, although I personally find the steering a little quick, and the brakes a little sharp. There is room for 5 adults, but not a lot of room for their baggage. Drop the back seats down and you have a very respectable carrying capacity which is just as well, as the Honda roof rack has the two rails too close together, and seems to need a top box rather than balancing items on it. Overall I am pleased with this car, although I have added the optional spare wheel to supplement the puncture repair kit supplied. This had a noticeable but minor effect on the fuel consumption but gives me greater peace of mind. Overall finish and reliability are what you expect of this manufacturer. My other two Hondas are a motorcycle and a lawn mower.

This car is classed as a supermini, But its space is greater than many larger "family " cars. Comfortable and relaxing driving position. Highly practical, fully folding rear seats and other options to raise or lower rear seats. Very quiet despite very small engine. Brilliant gearbox, with full auto, 7 speed semi auto and paddle changes for seven speed semi- manual. All with nearly 50mpg. Totally relaiable. I would ( and have) travel anywhere in this car.

The Honda Jazz suits my needs perfectly. It is small, frugal, comfortable, roomy, capable of carrying bulky loads, and easy to drive. There is only one very slight drawback - the performance is steady and suits my needs in nearly all instances, but could just have a little more 'go' when needed. My best like of the car is its ability to carry awkward loads. I regularly need to carry a wheelchair, and its 'magic seats' make this an easy task - much better than even much bigger cars that I have used in the past. Just lift the seat of the rear - either 1/3 or 2/3 - and you can have a rear passenger, a wheelchair, and a full boot of luggage. No other car I have had has been able to do this. When I need to replace this car, a Honda Jazz will be top of the list, and any other car will be judged against the Jazz specification.

A great little car for short and long journeys, love the magic seats, like the cd and radio controls on steering wheel.

The Honda Jazz is a very reliable car apart fron not having a proper spare wheel. Due to the state of the roads I have had a few tyre problems and had to buy new tyres. It is very inconvenient having the tiny yellow tyre especially when it happens on a Sunday or a long distance from home It's very reliable , comfortable but expensive when anything goes wrong.

The Jazz is a great car, with very good economy - until you need a service! The 25K mile service cost me over £500. Even the first service cost £167 for what I called just an oil change! The biggest problem is the ventilation system, which will not clear all windows in cold weather no matter what settings. The A/C is also rather weak, especially in summer. Honda deny any problems. The car is now five years old, and I will keep it another year, then get something new - probably a Hybrid, although I doubt if it will be a Honda due to their high servicing costs.
