2021 HONDA JAZZ REVIEW ALL-NEW GENERATION HONDA FIT AS HYBRID E:HEV

EV Channels Review

The 2021 Honda Jazz (or Fit) receives a significant upgrade with its new e:HEV hybrid powertrain, offering impressive efficiency, with the reviewer achieving under 5 liters per 100 km. The interior is a standout, described as a major step forward with premium-feeling materials, exceptionally comfortable and versatile "magic seats," and a clean, modern design. The driving experience is characterized by precise steering, a comfortable ride, and excellent all-around visibility, contributing to a sophisticated feel. However, the reviewer points out that the complex hybrid technology significantly increases the vehicle's price, which is identified as its main drawback. While the drivetrain is efficient, it lacks power, and the reviewer suggests a simpler mild-hybrid system might have been more appropriate. Despite these criticisms, the Jazz is lauded as a segment leader in many aspects, particularly its interior and practicality, making it a strong contender in the small car segment.
