Just last month, we got our hands on leaked patent images pertaining to the next-generation Honda Jazz Shuttle. Now, the elongated Honda Jazz has been revealed for the Japanese domestic market (JDM).
The Jazz Shuttle was first presented for JDM consumption back in 2011, having been based on the second-generation Jazz (Fit) hatchback. Earlier versions adopted the Honda Airwave name instead. Styling wise, the new Honda Jazz Shuttle appears to feature the marque’s “solid wing face” front grille.
A closer look will reveal lots of aesthetic similarities with the Jazz including the bold crease of a line that begins just aft of the front wheels and continue all the way into the taillight assembly.
While more technical specifications are en route, we know that the Jazz Shuttle will be available with a choice of either an AWD hybrid setup or a regular, petrol-powered version. The hybrid sports a 1.5 litre Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine which is paired to an electric motor and a dual-clutch gearbox. On the other hand, the petrol version is motivated by a 1.5 litre engine with power going to the front wheels.
As for equipment, the range-topping hybrid variant receives 16-inch alloy wheels, cruise control, navigation, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and Honda’s smart key system. Heated front seats, roof rails, fog lamps and a smattering of wood in the interior is also featured.
With the Honda Jazz commanding such a presence in the Malaysian market, will we be able to see the Honda Jazz Shuttle alongside its hatchback siblings in the near future? Only time will tell…
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Habis la Toyota. With so many good Honda models, who will want to buy Toyota anymore?
Lucky now I am selling undergarments in Parkson
Today Same Lorrrr cannot sleep. Goncang also, air tak boleh keluar!
How is this possible? This is uglier than Toyota Wish
If coming here the price must be twice Proton Exora.
Biasalah takut nanti tidak laku, old stocks reput dekat yard.
Comparing 1.5l with 1.6l turbo engine? Even wish kena tarpau dengan Exora
LOL
Got turbo la thats why kalah dengan wish. Ini mpv bkn supercar hadoy
I dun see he said about supercar. Turbo is turbo whatever its output is
If this shuttle ever landed in Malaysia, Toyota Innova, Avanza can tapao!!!
Toyota wouldn’t worry about it since they’re 7 seaters. Perodua will have plenty of all-out sweat becoz this will compete directly with the fake 7-seater Alza a la Kereta Mudah Terbakar.
this shuttle is 5seater, avanza & innova potential buyers won’t buy.
how about jade & new stepwgn? :-)
The rear side reminds me to Honda Mobilio which on sale in Indon & India.

Already got HRV. This car, Malaysian dont need one. Beside city and jazz already killed vios and almera. Honda left head to head with mazda only.
With all the MPV-VIP-wannabes Korean car in the Malaysian street, smart Japanese won’t send their best cars to Malaysia anymore. They are smart enough to export to other countries.
