Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Looking Again At The Jazz 2023
« Last post by ninanina on Today at 07:08:58 PM »My partner saw the Jazz for the first time today
His first comment whilst I was driving was “she’s quite quick” I’m not sure that’s the first thing anyone would say about the Jazz. 0-60 times are 10.3 secs for the Prius vs 9.3 for the Jazz so not a lot in it
What has shocked me is how serene the Jazz is even compared to the Prius; that’s a huge surprise as the Prius is in a category or two above the Jazz size wise
My partner was also very impressed, as I am, just how refined she is; I now know that the Jazz definitely has less road/tyre noise compared to the Prius
I can’t quite believe how comfortable and quiet the Jazz is, whether that’s around town or on fast A roads/motorways. It’s a very nice place to be
Recent’ish car experience has been 2 x Prius, Auris, Colorado, Amazon V8 as well as my old E class Mercedes
I also spent some time with the Jazz infotainment system today and found it a joy to use. The only thing I have to master is playing Spotify music via voice commands/Siri etc. CarPlay is fantastic
I have not played around much with the drivers display yet but it seems intuitive to use. I’ve not had to resort to the huge handbook thus far

« Last post by tfw7 on Today at 06:43:32 PM »Re mpgCould you please explain how I might set my mk 3 to display like that.
Trip A on mine is set as tank to tank
Trip B is set as engine on to engine off
I would be very grateful.
Thank you
Do bear in mind this is the mk4 forum so it may not be the same. I think there is a mk3 forum so prob get more accurate answers there

..or just use the hand brake, which is how we were all taught. The beauty of the Jazz hand brake, you don't have to release it when moving off.
Good point, next time I’ll use the hand brake instead if I know I’m going to be waiting a while

A decent vacuum hose over the vents may bring some debris out. Pollen filter as others have suggested. Do get a vacuum in there too.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Driving Standards & Insurance
« Last post by Westy36 on Today at 05:57:10 PM »A factor I take into account is modern life. For some folk, the only time they can assert themselves is on the road. They perhaps have a terrible home life, work life and money worries to boot. However, all of this can be taken out on fellow motorists. The one thing left that is 'theirs', the right to drive as they wish.
People also follow what others are doing. We have only to look at riotous events this year to see how easily some folk are led to do things they wouldn't normally do. When you see everyone driving flat out and aggresively, it becomes normalised behaviour they sadly emulate, a race to the bottom. I firmly believe a proper road traffic officer presence on the road would reduce this behaviour dramatically.
Another factor is the ability of modern cars. I started in BL heaps, namely a marvelous Marina. Devoid of braking, handling, ABS, PAS and safety equipment I had to drive respectfully or end up in a hedge at best!
How many folk on the roads today have any experience of such things? Millions have only known cars that stop, steer and have lovely airbags to save the day together with a raft of other safety equipment. The car flatters their driving bringing about a sense of invincibility?

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: Buying ine tomorrow possibly A few questions
« Last post by embee on Today at 05:36:52 PM »I'm always interested in these sort of questions.
The Jazz is what it is, a 1.3L medium sized everyday hatchback. If what you want is a car which can accelerate briskly at 60 or 70mph in top gear then it's probably not for you.
It has enough power available to perform perfectly acceptably in most traffic circumstances if you are prepared to use the transmission appropriately. Selecting "S" will hold it in lower ratios and allow quite reasonable performance. Alternatively put it in S and then use the paddles to put it in the ratio you want. Those functions are there for you to use if D isn't doing what you want.
Personally I'm happy with the performance it will bowl along at 70mph all day if you wish though I find 65mph gives noticeably better fuel economy if that's important. In D that's typically a shade over 2000rpm so don't expect instant response, you need more rpm to get it to accelerate sharply.
D is really offering best economy compromise, but you can make it do otherwise at the flick of a switch.
Ultimately if it's not acceptable to you then there are plenty of cars which will do it, probably in the 2.0L category.
