Advance Sport
« on: August 27, 2025, 06:26:29 PM »
Looking at it. What do you think of the colours Urban Grey Pearl at £675, Platinum White Pearl at £675, Premium Crystal Red Metallic at £1,000 and the Crystal Black Pearl at £0?. Red is pricey and is it better than the older red which I wasn’t keen on?
Been told there was a facelift about a year ago, the main differences are the new front grill, a more powerful battery giving 10hp more, improved ride and mpg.

Some offers on until Friday.

I bought an Elegance in premium crystal red metallic, as it was the only one of the four colours that I liked. I’m pleased with it but can’t comment on its durability. I’ve not washed it in 8 months and it lives outside but it doesn’t look dirty after 5000 miles.

When I talked to the dealer before FL, the red one should be the only one with 5 layers.

I think the facelift also provides HERE buil-in satnav, which I quite like, as it also gives a diagram of approaching junctions on the driver information screen.

Brought new jazz advance sport sept 23 really really wanted urban grey, all over
the uk could only get white black and red so settled with the red as could not
wait any longer, paint treatment thrown in for free and must admit after heavy
rain car looks as though its been washed.
I forgot what I came to forget.

Read very positive review but the urban grey car in review was described as looking like primer.

Can I ask why you chose the Advance Sport over the standard Advance model?

My understanding is that the Sport has a less comfortable ride compared to any other Jazz because the suspension has been tweaked for slightly better handling

I know the Sport also has paddle shifts

The facelift Jazz was during 2023, which is what I have, the front grill is different but not sure about the other things you say were also upgraded

If you are buying used definitely get the facelift version if you can

"Classic" Jazz is already somewhat harder, and "Advance Sport" will surely be even harder...? But I haven't driven it, so I can't compare.

My thoughts exactly stani

For me the joy is owning a smallish car that has a lovely soft ride, is quiet and very refined

The stiffer ride of the Sport simply doesn’t appeal to me and I’m sure after a while you’ll never use the paddle shifters either

ninanina: for me, when switching from Toyota, the Jazz seems harder...

I downsized from a Mk4 Prius and the ride, quietness and refinement of the Jazz is very close to the Mk4

I was amazed how smooth the Jazz was and didn’t feel I was missing out on comfort compared to the Prius

The other Toyota’s I test drove, Yaris/Cross, didn’t come close to the Jazz for comfort

The Corolla was better but too small and dark in the cabin compared to the Jazz

I was asking about the colours. I saw urban grey in the showroom and didn’t like it. The red with black looked great. Like the seats too.

When I looked at replacing my Crosstar I chose the Sport as you get a lot of extras over the Advance for not much money (about a grand):

Proper Alloy Wheels
Premium soft leather seats with yellow stitching
Rear Spoiler
Gloss black finish to under bumper panels
Paddle controlled regen braking (4 levels)
Sport mode
Sport suspension (a bit firmer)
Leather 3-spoke steering wheel with yellow stitching
Chrome tail-pipe finish

It just seemed a no-brainer, the suspension is slightly firmer but the super-comfortable seats mean it's still a comfortable ride, if you are thinking about it just take one for a test drive. I've certainly not regretted my choice and I'm an OAP with arthritis issues.

I chose black as it then matches the bumper panels although it does need a bit of extra care over the other colours.

I have bought similar to red one in photo. Seems funny “old man” Jazz with a rear spoiler. Seats felt good. Great offers end today I think.

-£1500 VIP discount + 5 years free servicing
-£2000 deposit contribution from Honda

The Honda Jazz hybrid "Advance Sport" trim offers 122 horsepower (hp), which is the maximum power output for the 1.5-liter petrol-hybrid engine used across the entire Honda Jazz hybrid model range.
