2020 Honda Jazz Teased Ahead Of Tokyo Motor Show

The fourth-gen Honda Jazz or Honda Fit as it’s called in some selected markets, is gearing up for its public showcase at the upcoming 2019 Tokyo Motor Show. After months of testing and spying, the Japanese carmaker has released the first teaser picture of the new-gen hatchback, giving us a glimpse of some exterior details of the vehicle.

Honda has teased its new-gen Jazz to the public, giving us a glimpse of some exterior details of the new model.

Teaser images reveal that the 2020 Honda Jazz will carry on its edgy and sporty silouhuette as the previous-gen car but its front and rear profile have undergone a complete cosmetic revision.

The premium hatch still gets an upright stance but its general shape would be more rounded as compared to the outgoing version. Spy shots of the 2020 Honda Jazz also tell us that it will recieve with larger fully-redesigned LED headlamps, vertical taillamps along with a few styling changes on the outside.

The 2020 Honda Jazz is expected to get more rounded edges as compared to the previous-gen version.

The interior of the next-gen Jazz will experience a comprehensive transformation too. It will feature a new dashboard layout with a new three-spoke steering wheel and a revamped instrument cluster. Along with that, the new-gen Jazz will get a new centre console and an upgraded infotainment system too.

On the mechanical front, the fourth-gen Honda Jazz comes with two different powertrain options in International markets - a 1.3-litre i-VTEC engine and a 1.5-litre i-VTEC engine. While the former can make 102 PS of max power and 123 Nm of peak torque, the latter churns out 132 PS of power and 155 Nm of peak torque.

The fourth-generation Honda Jazz is likely to hit the Indian market in the second half of 2020.

Allegedly, the India-spec Honda Jazz might get the 1.5-lite petrol engine as the global-spec model along with a 1.5-litre diesel unit. The 1.3-litre mill is not likely to be offered as an option.

Earlier this month, it was rumoured that the new-gen Jazz will not make it to India due to the presence of electric parking brake and its low sales number in recent months. However, for the Japanese company, the Jazz is an important product for our market. Upon its launch in India, the 2020 Honda Jazz will rival models like the Maruti Baleno, Volkswagen Polo and Hyundai i20.
