Is it a car or van?

[guest1372]

If they add a hybrid to the current range, then, along with the 1.3 engine and the new 1.5, they will have a formidable lineup.

It exists in other territories, and even has a trick 7 speed dual clutch gearbox which can decouple the EV from the ICE, whereas the Mk2 Hybrid would still turn the ICE when using EV mode.  The predicted sales are probably too low to make importing it worthwhile.

But you realise, if you are a Jazz owner, what you'd be missing out on. We've talked about the flexible and convenient load carrying aspect but there are no other small cars with such a huge cabin. The legroom in the back is fantastic even with the front seats pushed all the way back (and even as 6 footer I don't need to do that).

I think at 6 ft you might find you need the front seat all the way back in the Mk3 Jazz, but it has even more room in the rear.

I didn't need the seat all the way back in the Mk 3 I had a loan of, and I am over 6 ft.

One disadvantage of the Mk2 was the silly 'sky light'. I never used it because it caused dashboard glare and the 'open' roof annoyed me but it also took away a chunk of headroom for rear passengers. That's something I'm glad they dropped.

I am 6' tall and need the drivers seat right back, it all depends on where the majority of the 6' is, I have long legs.

[Jocko]

Yes. That makes a difference. I am neither one thing or the other.

I am taller than many 6 footers when sitting,  but I need a low seat on my motorbike.  My head gets close to roof in cars.

My wife has short legs and a long body. My ex, on the other hand, at exactly the same height, had great long legs and a short body. We are all different.

I'm 6 foot but my legs are short - that could be the issue. The other thing is I like a sit up and beg type driving position and the Jazz has that. In fact I am probably 2 or 3 notches from fully back and in the fully back position it is a stretch to fully depress the clutch.

In reply to anduec l loved the panoramic roof in my MK2 and was vey disappointed when they dopped it. One thing that nobody has mentioned is the bloody awful door handles on the MK2 (always ripping your fingernails off especially when wet) the handles are so much better on the MK3.
