On mixed driving is 66mpg around town with a gentle right foot I Get more as up to 28 mph it runs on battery I would go as far to say it rates as one of the best cars I have had and believe me I have had lots If I had one problem it would be tuning the radio in :)

So far, very impressed. Particularly like the heated steering wheel and the ability to turn off the key fob as required.

My age related move towards the Jazz was from Accord Tourer (2005 to 2015) CRV (2015 to 2020). Just didn't need the space anymore so economy became a bigger driver. I had ADAS (forerunner of Honda Sensing) in the Accord and grew to love it doing regular long motorway trips, so my CRV was also equipped with Sensing. So far I think the Jazz version works best of the three although I haven't yet driven it in poor visibility conditions to see how it reacts.
The one thing I want to get a handle on is at what point does use of the brake pedal go from purely regenerative braking to friction. I tend to leave the shift lever in the B position except the car won't let you when engaging cruise.

The only "extra" is that the Yokohama BlueEarth (summer) tires will be replaced by Vredestein Quatrac all-seasons.
Delivery end of August.

Also, Honda Hungary are simultaneously running a promotion to supply winter wheel sets FOC, comprising of not only 4 Nexon winter tyres, but also 16" alloys to go with them (exactly the same as the standard Crosstar rims - so I'll have two sets in total). Value is just over £1000 retail.
Not sure if the offer is available across Europe, but this site seems to cover 10 countries (excluding UK and France): https://www.honda-parts.eu/
I'll have those fitted from the go, so I'll only be able to try the Dunlop summer tyres from spring onwards.
Way back, from 2006 onwards, I was actually a member of Civinfo run by Pottsy. I recognise Kremmen - who is a wonderful contributor on that site - so I'm looking forward to being a part of this community too. Hello to everyone!

IMO it's better than the 3 Civics it replaces. Maybe not as good as my IS200 or the 3 Xantias I had, but not far off.

The 16" rims and tires maybe give a harsher ride than 15", however, comfortable enough for us. For sure clearly more comfortable than its predecessor, a Yaris Hybrid, also on 16". Although I must add that the Jazz was not delivered on the original Yokohama BluEarth tires, but on Vredestein Qatrac all seasons at my request. So, I don't know how it would be on the Yokohamas.
Post by: Nigel on November 07, 2021, 04:36:52 PM
I chose the EX because of the blind spot information and cross traffic monitor. That's also the reason (besides all the "Tupperware") that the Crosstar wasn't considered. I also like a leather steering wheel instead of "plastic".

I forgot about the cross traffic monitor. Yes I would have liked that as well as the blind spot. I was sorely tempted to go for the EX as it also had the reversing camera so 3 useful extras in my opinion but I couldn't bring myself to pay for lower profile tyres and privacy glass. I was neutral on the rest like the leather steering wheel, heated steering wheel & seats, Garmin and shiny door mirrors.
Post by: Kremmen on November 07, 2021, 05:14:10 PM
I like the privacy glass, never had it before, saves dipping the mirror. Plus it's .... private.
When I think back, I was doing 30k a year back in the 70's, now, only about 3k a year max.

This is the only Jazz hybrid sold in New Zealand; the CrossStar and the lower spec Jazz are still 100% internal combustion engine.
The e:HEV is the equivalent of the top specification UK Honda Jazz.
Not sure if the software will be the same as for the UK Honda Jazz
Post by: Kremmen on November 10, 2021, 04:01:38 AM
The black/brown interior looks the nicest of all the interiors I've seen.
NZ also get the black front cup holders that Honda refuse to send to the UK.

I will post a list of the major differences to the UK version of the Jazz after I have read the 500 page manual (I have downloaded the PDF of the UK Jazz)

Interesting to see, as the motoring press seemed to universally recommend the SR as the 'sweetspot'. Just shows how much they know their readership. Or maybe this site has a skewed subset of Jazz owners.When picking up my new EX today I mentioned this to the rep. He replied that i) by some margin most of the models they sold were EX and ii) car magazines rarely if ever recommend the most expensive model in a range as they like to pick out "good value". Also Jazz owners typical demographic may be less price sensitive, the Peugeot branch of the same dealer tended to sell proportionately more of their cheaper models.
Post by: trebor1652 on February 14, 2022, 08:19:58 PM
Had it 12 months just had it's first service.
I asked if the heated steering wheel could be fitted and that's a "no".
It's a much better drive than the MK3
I can see it being a family member for some time to come.
No downsides at the moment.

I have had my Jazz crossbar 4weeks now and the reason I chose the cross star was because it's a bit higher than the jazz.I had a vw golf previously but the cross star is much more comfortable and the mpg

...front sensing camera failed twice and Honda will not permit fitting new as may be a software problem so have to drive without safety aids and with dash flashing lights on start up!.
That's not good enough from the dealer. Whether it's a software or hardware issue is irrelevant, the car's under warranty so they have to fix it. If you've given them a chance to do that, and they can't or won't, then you're entitled to reject the vehicle.
Post by: sportse on May 06, 2022, 04:00:13 PM
In their case the dealer said the front cameras were out of stock and not expected to come in for at least a month :(
So they are expected to drive around for over a month with no safety features - and for my EX if it fails, it would mean no cruise control which I use every trip.
Perhaps there are issues with the cameras failing and it's caused a backlog of parts orders?

Coming from 11 years with a Hyundai i20, and a succession of Clios before that.

Incidentally, ordered EX Style in midnight blue beam after seeing one in the showroom (sorry, we can't sell you that one). This model had a grey interior. Just out of boredom, I recently used the Honda site configurator to 'build' my car. When it came to the interior, it wouldn't load the images... it actually states black fabric as standard. So, I knew when I ordered the car that all dark colours come with a light interior and the light colours with a black interior. The thing is, I used the 'live' chat on the site and asked what exactly my interior would be. The responder actually told me it would be black!
Have Honda changed their colour/interior matches policy since I ordered beginning of June?

I check the brochure on honda.co.uk
Couldn't see any difference from UK Crosstar EX but Turkish Crosstar looks 70kg heavier

Two weeks after my initial order and following a courtesy call from my dealership, I checked my paperwork again and realised that an ‘Elegance’ model had been ordered instead of an ‘Advanced’. Somewhat confused, I returned hotfoot to the dealership to make them aware of this embarrassing situation. I accept that it was partly my fault for not checking the papers properly at the outset but the young lady who had accompanied me on the test drive must have been aware that the model I had driven which included a satnav was the one I wanted especially as we had discussed the specification. Unfortunately, the original order had to be cancelled and a new order set up and now I have to wait until probably October (instead of August originally) for delivery. At least I am now getting a free set of mats as some recompense.
It seems that nowadays, illustrated brochures are not available in dealerships which did provide an opportunity to compare the details of different models. If such a brochure had been available I might have been more aware and familiar with the various model names and this error might not have happened. :-[

It's not always easy to spot these mistakes in the showroom, a lot going on, excitement, price. My salesman read through the order form and all was OK.

I must have been lucky as when I bought my Mk4 in 2022, I used a 56 page brochure that was on display in the main dealer showroom. I now keep it as part of the car documentation folder.

Nearly here; my first Honda, a Jazz Advance is arriving on Tuesday. There is a real sense of anticipation building....You might want to sweeten the wait by reading the manuals downloadable from https://www.honda.co.uk/cars/owners/manuals-and-guides/honda-owners-manuals.html (https://www.honda.co.uk/cars/owners/manuals-and-guides/honda-owners-manuals.html) (you have to do some scrolling until you get to the Jazz MY24 though)

For those who chose either the Advance or the (Advance) Sport, what was your rationale?My reasoning for choosing an Advance (only the differences mentioned I cared about):
Advance over Elegance:
- infotainment with built-in sat-nav
- heated leather steering wheel
- blind spot warning with cross traffic monitor
- all windows powered with comfort opening/closing (by key fob)
- folding mirrors (by key fob)
- darkened windows in the back
- not overly more expensive than Elegance
Advance over Advance Sport:
- hefty price tag! (no additional equipment that I'm willing to pay this much more for)
- artificial enginge sound in "sport-mode" (wtf?)
- slightly less fuel efficient according to specs
- slightly less performant according to specs (this is no joke!)
- was not available at time of order :D
ymmv

I feel the same as you, my personal reason for going with the Advance over the Elegance is mainly the 16" wheels which I feel make a difference on the highway.
On the other hand I'd like to have the drive mode choices that the sport has, but for me this feature alone is not worth the price difference (not to mention the fake noise fiasco) :D
Post by: Spodric on April 01, 2024, 09:43:29 AM
My main reservations are: I would like a higher range of adjustment for the driver's seat, which in fact is less than the seat in the Mk2, and no height adjustment for the front passenger seat. (Why?) I also deplore the lack of a spare wheel, and no dedicated space in the boot even for a spacesaver.
Previously, I had 2 reliable Honda motorbikes, a Mk1 Civic (unfortunately, abused by previous owner, so I had to get rid) and lately we had a Mk2 Jazz that was bulletproof for reliability, and only had the Takata airbag recall. So far, the Mk4 has needed a replacement passenger side door mirror (known fault) and just last week I experienced the total brake failure catastrophe. I am so glad that I paid for the 5 year Care Package servicing and warranty extension. Because of that brake failure, I joined this forum, and put my maiden post on the brake failure thread. I felt the need for solidarity with fellow Jazz Mk4 owners, against the Honda UK apparent unwillingness to provide a comprehensive solution without quibbling.
