Norton Way Group newsletter indicates they are launching the Jazz in their showroom on the 3rd of September and the HRV on the 17th September.

There's finally a new Jazz brochure on the Honda UK website at http://www.honda.co.uk/content/dam/local/uk/brochures/cars/Jazz_brochure_2016.pdf (http://www.honda.co.uk/content/dam/local/uk/brochures/cars/Jazz_brochure_2016.pdf).

However, let's hope that the cars they will be selling aren't the same as the left hand drive versions that feature in the brochure!

I have sat in one this afternoon and well impressed.
It seems more roomy than the Mk2 and more easy to get out of.
I cant drive a Mk2 manual because of ankle problems but I think I can drive this new one .
What I don't like is that the electrically retracting wing mirrors are not available on the S

I'm interested in the SE but would like the rear view camera which they are putting only on the EX.

The good news regarding the mirrors is that they don't stick out quite as far as on the previous Jazz. The specs give width over mirrors as 1980mm - down from 2029mm, so that's almost 1" less on each side. I hope the excellent view from the old mirrors isn't compromised.

The Jazz has always been a "Tardis" but this new one is a "Tardis" on steriods. I'm over 6 foot and 135Kgs and there is still space to spare. I don't know how they done it

The extra space has been given to the passengers. I've just measured the boot from sill to back of back seat on both the Mk II and Mk III and there's negligible difference. However, with part / all of the back seats folded, there's more baggage space.

I think the new model is bigger.

5cm longer external.

2.5cm higher external.

4 cm lower.

The ground clearance, according to Honda's website is 110mm which to me is in Porsche territory. Not very speed bump or kerb friendly.

Can this really have a ground clearance of 110mm?
