That's exactly the point. They have an excellent product but they have goofed up big time on the pricing front. A product that should have seen decent numbers is just sitting around in the showroom and is hardly moving due to its pricing and Honda seems to be least interested in setting things right. Heck the City sells 5000 odd units every month. Compare that to the 800 odd units of the Jazz and you'll get the picture.

Add Fiat to that list.

But expect Honda to be above them all with stratospheric prices! But even if they keep the starting price <5 lacs,it will sell.Big time.In India a Honda for the masses will fly off shelves.Blame brand value.

My family has long history with Toyota. Although we have never owned a Honda, it is still considered an equal in every respect.

Honda surely needs to do it right this time, they priced their Jazz a crazy way, which we all see the results in market, 4-6Lacs is a price to offer their hatchback, lets see when does this turn out as a reality.

All I can think is it will be Honda Zest/Honda Life Dunk based car to take on Wagon R.
Lets see what Honda comes up with!
