The Honda Jazz has a particularly loyal customer base in the UK thanks to its huge versatility, space and reliability. The clever, quick folding rear seats and masses of room allow the Jazz to compete not just in the supermini marketplace, but also alongside mini-MPV models like Skoda's Roomster. It's not cheap, and choice is limited to 1.2- and 1.4-litre petrol engines - with an automatic transmission offered with the 1.4-litre engine. Entry-level S trim is poorly specified, though the ES models are reasonably equipped. Avoid ticking the satellite navigation option box as it's very expensive.

Not a word about this cars notorious reliability... One of the most reliable car in the world
the most reliable car in the world i would say,i still have a 2006 model with 170.000+ kmh , its like new and never had any issues
@@h3342her how is the steeringfeel? or does it have a sharp steering?
@@commendatore2516 no it doesnt have an sharp steering,it is so good build that after so many year the colour of the car is in great shape and generally the car when you clean it its like a new.
I have the 2009 model currently on 62,000 miles. Hasn't let me down in 2 years. Literally nothing apart from replacing front pads and discs. Obviously that doesn't count.
Only thing I can fault is, I have the 1. 4 manual, and it's sluggish in the hot weather, runs much better in the cold or at night when it's cooler on the summer. And the blind spot on the front pillars is really bad... Like very bad
Im getting one Friday. The automatic. I understand the CVT fluid needs replacing and can be quite expensive. That say. If it's changed often it's reliable right?
Best city cars (all Jazzs, old too) in the world. Absolutely non problematic. I drove from UK to Poland and back in Honda 2005 that i bought for £800. I didnt havr a feeling i was driving something small. Very comfortable even during very long runs. I made 1800km one way. If you want a csr which does not ask you for more than fuel then here you go. A must have on every driveway.
I haven't driven another car as fun as my 2009 Jazz. No understeer, pulls directly out of turns and fast bends, lift-off oversteer, direct steering. Honda did a brilliant job on the suspension, gearbox and engine. Interior is a doddle to use, too.
this honda jazz is literally a legendary car here in Japan(the name here is Honda Fit). It's one of the best selling compact hatch and no other compact cars can beat jazz in terms of inside capacity and good fuel economy.
and it's also got bullet proof reliability, my mom bought her a 2004 jazz but it hasn't had any trouble since then.
I think a jazz is a lot better choice than a toyota prius considering its price.
I have owned this car for about 5 years now but i just found out the features of the car that he showed us XD
same here! haha for how many years im driving this car i will never know its features until i have watch this XD
Do you still have it?
are u still driving it?
When matt was so young
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Drag this vs m3
Matt... matt. Its not matt its mat
I learned to drive in this. Pretty fun car.
Got one last week. The boot is immense and so useful for carrying all the musical equipment I need (no other car I've driven in the past could fit my guitar case, but this did), and it does feel nippy, eager and easy to see out of. I've to agree about the jittery ride and road noise, and the clutch takes some getting used to, but I enjoy this car.
I really like how Matt was able to evolve out of this generic 'car salesman' level of presentation.
Very good review. It's important that you pointed out that blind spot problem. I found out the hard way by almost hitting someone.
I'm got this car and I have to say it's brilliant. I'm drove it to Slovakia from uk and back with no problem...Honda Jazz1.4 executive does the job perfectly.
Wat year
@@jayislander 2010
You can also take a lot of Slovenian wine back to the UK.
@@JeeGee114 Slovakia 🇸🇰
I'm a new proud jazz owner. It's an absolute joy to drive with the only thing broken being the aux port cover turning into goop. But that's more a problem with rubber.
One of the most useful, economical and reliable city cars ever.
Wow Mat hasn't aged a bit. Sucha youtuhful energy!
Hi!! First of all, I love your reviews! It would be great to have the Honda Jazz 2015 review... do you have any plans on adding it?
Wow he was so young
That "really fat A-pillar", in the unfortunate case that you're in an accident and your car flips up-side down, will keep you from getting crushed. Honda designed this car with occupant safety in mind.
I owned a 2011 Honda Fit (Jazz) when I lived in U.S.
The Honda Jazz (Fit) is an excellent car, well made, fun to drive, reliable, economical, roomy, and it has good all around visibility.
Now that I live outside of the U.S., I plan on buying another Honda Jazz very soon.
This is a great car.
endless cupholders? IM SOLD!!
Picked up a new 1.2 last week, this review is pretty accurate. It has amazing space for the size - yet some 2 feet shorter than my previous car, a Skoda Octavia. Well screwed together. Bit noisy from 60mph upwards. Ride's a bit firm, but nowhere near the horror story that you would imagine, a Fiesta / Corsa is only marginally better. Really light to drive, trade-off is that it doesn't handle like a Fiesta, but hey, that's the Daddy of handling.
I like that your tall, it gives a good review in height of the car
My wife drives the 1.5 Sport, purchased new in Nov 08 and has been a fantastic little car.
Only downside is our model doesn't have stability control but the later models do.
Like the look of the new Civic Euro, upgrade time perhaps!!
This car is everywhere!
I liked this jazz ,
Lol,.I love the faces he makes when talking about the suspension ride.
Should come down on pricing,Candy blaze colour to introduce...
I own a 2012 model and is definitely a great car to drive, very handy space considering the class and size of this car. The only thing I don't like is the exterior panel work. I noticed you can make little dents(un- intentional) easier than the previous cars I owned(hiace, mazda 3, Honda civics...)
Mat has been reviewing from a long time.
im getting one of these, think they are great
the new CARWOW video of the brand new jazz has so many similarities with matt LOL
and whats the best vtec transmission? auto(include semi auto) or manual?
great review!
this guy does a great review!
What about the boot ;-;
You should add link to "mirrored" movies :)
Can't believe that Matt's still doing this over 10 years later but for Carwow!
that shows how good he is at his job
Such a fantastic car. My mum managed to get this car under the Motability Scheme for £450.
what happens if you dont get those things?
I prefer Honda jazz 1.4 i-vtec. Smoother and quiet expensive in Malaysia but i finally ended up with viva elite 1.0 l.
2:04 Wow, in the video it seems super loud inside.
Starting my driving lessons tomorrow and I'm going to be in one of these.
Did u pass?
@@SuperKiko112 yeah I've been driving for almost 10 years now 🤣
@@MrFly757 are you still driving in the jazz or are u driving in a lamborghini now
How much was ground clearance
why does this have so many more little features the US version doesn't have?
"Like a ferrari"
No offensive.. but your comparison really brought me smile, thank you for it..
this guy should be top gear host
Definitely
Boot size???
and wait.. the manual dosent have shifting gear like ferrari? because my sister has bought automatic( which has shfting at steering)..
what about a spair tyre,
I would love to take Mat for a test drive....
Anyone in 2019?
no anyone in 2020
No in 2020. Gonna buy me a '13 model tommorow.
2020
i'm in 2021!
No. I am from the future.
i have the 1500cc i-vtec engine :) very easy to get 200kph. i know its not a performance car, but as a economical car its pretty quick
i bought the old honda jazz brand new in 2006 56plate after the car was 3 months old the engine made a screaching sound for the first 15 seconds or so i took it back they said the alternator needs adjusting they couldnt solve the problem kept making the same noise also the paintwork was shocking must of had about 30 chips on the bonnet the car was only a few months old apart from that the car drove fine and very practical
so much information in 2:40. that's pretty impressive. I started viewing Punto and ended up all the way till Jazz..whats next whats next...
I want a new car like Honda Jazz
I like Honda Jazz
use it as a tunnel. Haha.
Imitate Charlie Chaplin in City Lights (1931).
omg Mat you look soo young back then lol
What about Honda Jazz 2014 ES PLUS CVT Review !!? Is it good car to buy or not...Please make one video on Honda Jazz 2014 ES PLUS CVT..
well the jazz is the fit for the uk. the jazz hybrid is going to be the 2015 fit hybrid. most of the uk honda models are from other honda or acura models. for example, the accord saloon is the acura tsx sedan, and the accord tourer is the tsx sport wagon. civic is crosstour, and the rest are the same in the us
LOVELY CAR!
Didn't show us around the boot.
i love this car
love this jazz apart from its granny look and shuddering cvt
It only shudders when the CVT fuild needs replacing
@@topcat4265 wrong. cvt fluid needs to be changed regularly to prevent shuddering; by the time it starts to shudder often its too late, hardware damage already been done
This car is for seniors who like jazz :p
But with the Fiat 500 which hasn't got such a large A pillar is stronger as proven by the IIHS (insistute for highway safety with got a better strength to weight ratio of 6.16, in comparison to the fit (jazz) which got a ratio of 5.02 strength to weight ratio.
this car in the USA, it's called the Fit and it doesn't have height adjustable seats. i own one and i feel like i'm sitting in a hole. i agree with the blind spot pillar.
hmm 1.2L and 1.4L engines? I thought the jazz was supposed to have 1.3L non-vtec and a 1.5L vtec engine...also this is not the 2014 jazz lol...the front is a lot different...this looks like a 2010 jazz or close to that year...
this video is from 2010
if only honda would improve on the noise level in the cabin abit would make their cars difficult to pass by. I own a honda civic and it's pretty noisy inside too.
my sister have it.. this car has i-vtec engin and i stands for economic and vtec is is roaring double sound engine.. altough i have honda civic ek9 bt i love my sister car.. because its economical and high comfort with saftey ncap.. but soon i will buy the fit version

my wife got same jazz like this same color too, but no spare wheel dont know why
no spare wheel ???????
@@thameswater2561 Yes no spare wheel.
They make you pay extra for everything nowadays. To bad most of the older ones I see, do not have a button to turn off the traction control in the snow.
@@MyLifeThai371 It's a weight thing.
Looks like every other Japanese small car. Where did individuality go?
My dream is to get one when i will be younger.......
I nice and clever.......
Sweet car 👍❤️
Young Mat Looks Like Pietro Boselli Model.. Haha
how much does this car cost? i will use it as a tunnel
I would take it
My dad has a 2006 nissan micra sport it's the nicest small car ever i have a volvo c30 r design..
My name it is Graham. I am Dorothy's husband. Dorothy can't type so I have to type for her. She communicates with me via telepathy. She is here now looking at the screen. She says you are very nice and she would like to invite you round for dinner.
The honda jazz doesn't look small it looks very big.
It’s not big
Witch jazz is it? 2009 or 2010
+Bee of Awesome 2010
same thing here!
My 06 vti-s jazz if fun ahaha
Is it good for very long journeys, say 1000+ kilometres?
Yes, very comfy and practical, incredible reliability and nice fuel consumption :-)
That's what I was wondering. I wonder if it can hold the speed limit on long hills on interstate at 80 mph?
Cant believe this is matt watson
Matt!?
Waait..UK gets height adjustment for the driver seat? US is still hoping :/
oneroarmouse lol ur country is stupid
The jazz you mean the fit
steven valdez no. It's called the Jazz here. Don't be quite so ignorant
1:18 Oooh, fails driving test lol I remember years and years ago, taking my first lessons and my driving instructor telling me I could "break my fucking arm" if I hit something, sticking it through there.
before he was famous
It looks like its for my grandma
If you own this car... Make sure you don't leave it as it is... Get some aftermarket bodykits, change it to a projector headlamp, and get better styled rims...
And a fart pipe
Mr/Ms Complainer: not everyone wants to tart up their car. Given the car in question your comment is five star ludicrous. I applaud Honda's different approach in making this particular product look bland. Personally I'm not remotely bothered whether or not my vehicle attracts attention; I don't regard the thing as a sporty set of wizz‐wheels because it was never designed as such. "Horses for courses" and all that 'Jazz'.
From your 'interesting' remark it sounds to me as if you'd be happier with a jet‐propelled pushchair whilst sucking a dummy.
@@DavidHughes-op6zl haha… I was a hot blooded car brat back then. Now all I care is a car than can serve me, not the opposite.
@realrick1995
I already waiting for electric version, will chage my one only for it
When mat reviewed non sporty cars
how is jazz 1,4 in motorway????
It isn't bad. Road noise is quite lpud but not as bad as a lot of other cars and you can hear the engine revving. It is economical on both dhort and long trips. 48mpg
@@LAD241 is the suspension firm, as stated in the video? How is it over pot holes and bumps, generally the feelint of the suspension?
@@makstod6903 They improved that in the newer models but it is still firm.(I like it that way). The steering also improved with the implementation of a stabilizer bar. Also thicker side front windows to reduce windnoise. From 2013 upwards.
@iceburgh29 Yup
@Mosabsolum ... sue you do

I have already sleeping on my Honda Jazz 1.4 100ch version 2006 ^^
It's a good car with good engine. But her practical side is not good, it's really hard to sleep in it ... well, a kind of ferrari. Especially when it is large in size. I bought it to get from point A to B. It works, it's good crap.
Good Continuation. Jp
Honda fit has really bad noise problem in high speed. I cant even hear my phone ringing. I volume up the music and I can still hear wind noise. Really really loud.
They say the manual transmission runs at 2800 rpm, while the automatic runs at only 2200 rpm on interstate.
too bad you don't get the 1.5
I have blown up these cars in COD MW2
Compared to long sedans this car has no front :-) C´mon, look how short it is.
Car Wow guy
