Honda Cars India has no plans to launch the new 2014 Honda Jazz in the country before January 2015. Company officials have told the media that the new hatchback will launch only in the last quarter of the next financial year (Jan-Mar 2015).
These spyshots courtesy of CarSizzler show the new Jazz presumably at a dealership (the Jazz is parked next to other Honda cars such as the Brio, older Jazz and Amaze). In fact, the Jazz spotted here could very well be the same display car seen at the 2014 Auto Expo (though the Auto Expo show car featured alloy wheels whereas the Jazz spotted here sports steel rims).
The Jazz will be launched in India with a petrol and a diesel engine option. The petrol engine in question is the 1.2-liter four-cylinder i-VTEC found on the Brio (and on the previous Jazz) capable of producing 88 PS and 109 Nm of torque. Honda will offer this engine with a 5-speed manual, and a 5-speed automatic can also be expected.
The diesel Jazz will use the now familiar 1.5-liter four-cylinder i-DTEC motor which produces 100 PS and 200 Nm of torque. On the Amaze, this engine is paired to a 5-speed manual and delivers 25.8 km/l, while on the new City, a 6-speed manual ensures a class-leading efficiency of 26 km/l. Either way, we expect the new Jazz diesel to offer the best fuel efficiency in its class.
