2015 Honda Jazz first view

Honda has announced that the all-new Jazz will be appearing in prototype form at next month’s Paris Motor Show.

The 2015 Jazz is 15 mm (0.6”) longer overall and its wheelbase has grown by 30 mm (1.2”) compared to the current model. Despite those seemingly small increases, Honda is saying there’s more interior room than before. Photographs of the car’s interior have yet to be released, though.

For now technical details are sparse. However, we do know that the engine line-up is going to include a 1.3 litre i-VTEC Earth Dreams Technology petrol unit. It’s claimed to offer improved efficiency as well as better performance.

Deliveries of the 2015 Honda Jazz are scheduled to begin across Europe next summer.

Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
