At the rear, shallower grille sections are linked by a gloss black trim strip above a trapezoid lower section. Updates to the exterior are rounded off by the addition of metallic Skyride Blue as a new colour option.
The car comes in a new ‘Dynamic Grade’ variant. The variant gets a 130 PS 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine, which is offered in Europe for the first time. The Euro-6 compliant engine pairs with an optional CVT (6-speed gearbox is standard) and holds a claimed efficiency figure of 18.5 kmpl. Apart from this variant, a 102 PS 1.3 i-VTEC petrol engine with a 5-speed manual will continue to exist across all Jazz trims.
The Dynamic Grade also features a thinner front splitter, and triple-strake diffuser to the rear bumper – both finished with a red accent line. Additionally, it also gets LED headlights, front fog lamps, side sill skirts, a tailgate spoiler and gloss-black 185/55 R16 alloy wheels. The interior features a pinstripe pattern on the upholstery and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, all with orange stitching.
The new Jazz gets a 354-litre boot, which is expandable up to 897 litres with the rear seats folded down. Standard equipment on the Jazz includes cruise control, heated seats, automatic headlights and the City-Brake Active safety system. Higher grade variants feature a 7-inch Honda Connect infotainment system; rear-view parking camera, keyless entry and start; as well as safety features such as forward collision warning; lane departure warning and traffic sign recognition. The new Jazz will enter the UK market in November 2017.
