Well, I do not foresee this coming to India any time soon. Why? Simple, Honda has recently launched W-RV (which is kind of crossover Jazz featuring the same 1199cc motor). That already said, W-RV is still in its nascent stage of product lifecycle and has some good time before it matures and finally have its graph to slope down. Any new happening with Jazz or related product lines during this phase will surely leave an impact. Thanks.

WR-V was launched in Brazil in March'17. If I am not wrong, facelifted Jazz has been unveiled in Japan and scheduled for launch in June. It is then going to launch in Malyasia. I am expecting it to come to India and Brazil in early 2018. Six months is enough for WR-V to prove its worth.

The new face looks sharp, but it resembles the City a little too much IMHO.

Honda should use the same formula as the City facelift - more equipment, improved quality, lesser number of variants.

The Jazz already has good quality inside out. It just lacks the feel good factor of the i20, or the sheer VFM factor of the Baleno.

They should give the top end variant goodies like 6 airbags, LED headlamps, 16 inch alloys etc.

And can we please have magic seats have standard?

I really like how the Jazz Face Lift looks

Nothing like a little nip-and-tuck to keep old age at bay eh!

This car needs the 1.5L petrol to take the fight to the I20, I find the 1.2L on the Brio quite anemic and dont think the engine does justice to the Jazz.

Given the huge fan base of the City, that's not a bad thing in India.

Honda has always tried to position the Jazz as a standalone product, but this facelift looks like it will project the Jazz for being the hatchback version of the City. It's a good value option for those who don't need the additional bootspace offered by the City.

Looks better than earlier IMO.

Dear @Volkman, thank you for regularly updating this thread. Please do update it if Honda ever launch a Jazz (or Fit) Hybrid Plug-In version. The best replacement, in 2020, for my 2010 Jazz would be a plug-in Hybrid Jazz with the same superb use of space, magic seats and all round view.
