This all new Honda Jazz is small on the outside but big on the inside. The new model is 1.6 inches shorter than the previous model but due in part to its 1.2-inch longer wheelbase – extended to provide a larger occupant space – the Jazz has the largest interior space in its class. Contributing to the Jazz’s remarkable interior bigness are clever packaging, thoughtful storage features, and the multi-position 2nd-row Magic Ultra Seats® that provide several interior configurations for the ultimate in functionality.
Key among the many clever engineering and design changes made to achieve the Jazz’s excellent packaging are a lower profile fuel tank that provides almost 1 inch of additional vertical room. Floor frame members that were previously located along the sides of the fuel tank were moved under the tank to allow the wider tank profile. A narrower, single-fan radiator contributes to an engine bay that is over 4 inches shorter allowing for additional occupant room. And a new rear wheel arch design and shorter rear suspension trailing arm help to provide the 4.8 inch increase in passenger leg room.
Even when first entering this new Jazz, the driver and passengers experience the feel of space with wide opening doors, large door openings and a lower front seat height. Once seated, the 4.9 cubic feet of additional passenger space is immediately felt with increased room in virtually every direction, particularly the larger side-by-side and back-to-front passenger space. The sensation of airy spaciousness is further enhanced by a large glass area. Test drive this all new Honda Jazz and feel the space inside.
