Owned this ride for about 7 months now but hardly used due to work from home.» Read More
Upon collection from showroom, head straight to Arrow Tyre @ Serangooon (first visit) to change to 17-inch rims with Michelin PS4 tires.
On the same day, went to Auto-Image (Ted Tay) @ Sin Ming to replace all the stock speakers.
After listening to their impressive demo, decided to get the solid Esatto speakers and installed 3 layers of soundproofing (4 doors).
Before heading to KAH Motor, we went to drive the 1.3 Fit and 1.5 Fit Hybrid at two different parallel importers.
The 1.5 Fit Hybrid is powerful (135BHP), smooth and quiet. We decided to put the booking on hold after we saw the additional Commercial/GST fee of $6-7K for 7 years loan. We also need to top up additional $1K for the Pearl White.
Decided to head down to KAH Motor @ UBI to do comparison. Salesman (Anthony GOH) was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. He suggests us to test drive both the 1.3 and 1.5 Jazz. We opt for the Jazz 1.5 RS because it has more power, smoother and has disc brakes front and back.
We signed on the spot after comparing the loan package - No extra Commercial/GST fee or additional charge for Pearl White.
Looking back, we are happy we did not get the 1.5 Fit Hybrid from PI, we later realised it does not have the magic seats due to the battery location. -
I am a first-time car buyer. My main concerns were price, reliability, value for money, functionality and practicality.» Read More
Have clocked 3000km to date, and went for 1k servicing. No issues at all. A great car for first-time car buyers who want a fuss-free mode of transport. Everything just works, and works well. -
Have driven the jazz 1.3 for 2 years and upgrading to another car now.» Read More
Overall the car is very value for money, but that is where it may not be for everyone, because everything has a trade off. My main gripe with the car is the noise levels. The soundproofing is very bad and if you drive it daily it really can damage your hearing. Also, you will feel every single bump on the road.
All in all, if you are getting the car for weekends, it should serve you fine if you don't mind the loud cabin noise. However for a daily driver, I would suggest saving a bit more and moving up the segment to a better car. For the price however, it is probably still the best in its class if you dont mind a slightly uncomfortable ride but it is showing its age in terms of design and features.
In summary, you pay for what you get and the jazz 1.3 may be too much of a compromise for a lower price, leaving you yearning for a better car. -
I bought a Honda Jazz 1.5RS from Kah Motor Ubi in January 2020. The car has broken down multiple times on the expressway after the check light engine came on. This situation is unacceptable and a danger to my safety. Brought back to Ubi service centre but they were unable to diagnose the problem, refused to listen to my feedback and continued to insist the vehicle is okay. This is the 4th time in 6 months and I would not recommend this to any buyer looking for a reliable car. Service staff and customer service at Ubi were unhelpful and rude. The car is defective from the start (i.E. First engine light came within 2 weeks) but they have refused to accept responsibility. I am terribly disappointed and would not buy from Kah Motor again.» Read More
» VERDICT
First introduced in 2001, the Honda Jazz (also known as Fit in some countries or the local Parallel Imported (PI) model) became an immediate hit in Singapore.
Now into its third generation, the compact hatchback has been further enhanced with even greater versatility, fresh styling, a more dynamic and refined driving experience, and substantially upgraded technology and luxury features.
Styling is right out of the fun hatchback sketchbook with sharp lines, despite a slab sided look accentuating a sporty profile. Plus, the way the window line sweeps up towards the rear gives the new Jazz a little more attitude.
With class-leading interior space and versatility, courtesy of its centrally-mounted fuel tank and ingenious ULTRA seats, the Jazz epitomises smart functionality with spacious and comfortable seating for five and the ability to carry voluminous cargo, including long and tall items with its 363-litre boot.
The Jazz's fun-to-drive character includes performance and the new Jazz increases the fun factor with major advances to its powertrain. Two new Earth Dreams Technology engines significantly increases power, torque and throttle response and the newly developed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with G-Shift Control increase both performance and fuel efficiency.
The third generation Honda Jazz continues to deliver the balance of practicality and personality that made the first two generations so lovable. Together with a new face and some good gear, we can safely say the Jazz is back in vogue and that is also why it is the compact hatchback of the year.
