My next car - as simple as that.
are you in the U.S. ?!
wow! extremely useful and well delivered "real-user" review from small channel in the world where "million subs car guys" manage nothing but describe looks and buttons, and rarely acceleration.
I'm a recent Crosstar user, just two month in and closing to 2k km. Thanks to car-sharing services I was able to try a whole lot of different cars but Hondas, and bought one based on reviews and tech specs and love the car more and more as I use it. Need to see how it does in winter.
I totally agree with almost all your cons, including "one dashboard rattle". It seems to come from around infotainment system (display) connected to the console, since sometimes it goes away after firm presses around it (and now I think that I haven't heard it for a week). Honda app is not available in my country, and lack of backseat armrest is puzzling when you have all those more costly and sophisticated features in it.
Could you please share your experience with battery in city mode? With speed limits across the city in 30-40 mph range, it rarely goes even to the middle of the gouge, switches to EV, comes back to 3 stripes (or how to call it) in approximately a mile, then switch to generator and back in constant loop. No one on YT or anywhere talks about it. So I have no any benchmark opinion I can judge my experience against. Is it normal? Does it stress battery? How it will impact battery longevity? (all questions are rhetorical, I do not expect You to know the answers. just venting). All I have is just blind faith that everything works normal (which seems it does). Funny enough, Honda dealer does not provide any support (even checks) of batteries to see if something wrong. All they can do is just replace it when it's obviously dead.
Thanks for your great feedback and questions! Taking each one in turn, what you've described is perfectly normal! Unless you've covered some distance downhill (when you get more recuperation), or longer distances on the motorway, the middle of the gauge is pretty normal. And yes, it will switch between EV only, Hybrid and generator mode frequently in daily traffic. Normally, if the battery gauge falls under 3 bars, it will then kick in to charge it more. So the "loop" effect, as you called, it is how the system normal performs. There is also a "cheat" mode at idle if you ever want to put more energy into the battery at will. It can even be filled to all the bars on the gauge! To do this, if, after starting in EV mode (i.e. the engine doesn't fire up) press the accelerator while in Park halfway and hold it. The engine will then kick in and start charging the battery. When you release the accelerator it will stop charging. Going forward, there should be no impact upon battery life as Honda's hybrid system is as good as, if not smarter than Toyota's (there is also a batter warranty of 8 years in most markets). Also, when the car is serviced you can - at extra cost - ask for a multi-step instrumental diagnostic with a test drive to check the condition of the hybrid system. This is an extra 30 mins labour, but will give you additional peace of mind if you plan to keep the vehicle for a long time! In winter, fuel economy is slightly less than other times of the year (as the engine will kick in when the heating is turned on). But it's still very efficient!! Funny we both had the same rattle ;-) I guess this is one of the few improvement measures Honda can work on! Thanks again for watching and commenting. We'll have many interesting videos coming soon, so feel free to subscribe. It does help us!
I have jazz for just one year. Winter consumption 4,5 l/100km, summer 3,9. Each aproximatelly at 6000km. I love driving Jazz. Perfect car for city driving.

I have a regular Jazz with some 20'000km driven. Also have the mirror issue (the service said they couldn't find the problem). Noticed that the longer the drive, the better fuel efficiency - i managed to get 3.8 on 50km-long highway drives and 65 (sixty-five) on driving fifty meters on a parking lot. Sometimes it feels like the computer goes crazy with these figures, so i started photographing the data after each drive to show at the service if i notice white stuff. Also everyone says that the Android Auto is wired - it usually connects wirelessly to my Samsung (but sometimes goes nuts and doesn't). Noticed that wireless connection is more stable and less laggy than wired (when wired, Waze often freezes on the go, which may be annoying if you rely on it). Generally, I'm very happy with my Jazz, lovely little car,my only concern is the software.
The first thing I noticed is that It takes off like a stabbed rat (James May Quote), giving expensive sports cars a run for their money and even beating a lot of them.
Yes, 0-60 with just a driver / passenger and less than 1/2 tank of petrol acceleration is well UNDER 9 seconds, not the 9.5 quoted by Honda. But the initial kick with the EV motor means 0-30 is lively ;-) Thanks for commenting on this video too!
