Honda Jazz (Fit) test drive since 2008 hatchback
Test drive Honda Jazz: Welcome to Chilaut?
It is worth realizing the musical direction in the car expensive. Even more is worth the birth of a birth in reality to correspond to the mood of this music. I wonder what melody the updated Honda Jazz plays for its owner?The design of the sky-blue Honda Jazz is filled with lightness, airiness and endless cheerfulness. Compared to the previous generation, the car has become more expressive. The length increased by five and a half cm, and in width it scored two centimeters. The developers sought to improve visibility, it is noticeable: the driver's place shifted forward, but some imbalance appeared in the geometry of the body. There is a feeling that the car is in constant braking.
Impressed by a promising appearance, I plunged inside and felt like a fish in the aquarium. Turning his head to the left and right, she was convinced that not a single stance interferes with visibility. Even through glass-triangles in the front of the body, you can really consider a lot, while other manufacturers are only weak sources of daylight in the cabin.
The situation in the chair contributes to the best visibility. Because of my, unfortunately, not very long legs, I have to constantly raise a driver's seat. However, having settled down in Jazz, I really wanted to lower it, but as it turned out, there was nowhere to go, only up. This location of the chair is a clear compliment of Honda to people of small stature.
Despite the compact dimensions of the car, it is proportion to the mirrors to reduce in the Honda did not become another plus for good visibility and safe movement. Compared to the previous version, the review of the front increased by 10%, and at 30%.
Continuing my neck gymnastics, I moved to the slopes of my head: having thrown it back, I rested my gaze at the completely glass roof. Only the scorching sun helped to tear it away from there, only the curtain could cope with its power from modern technology (by the way, electronic, not manual control), the climate control here turned out to be powerless, and the whole body was frozen. It is better to enjoy the picturesque sunsets and a starry sky under a lightly relaxing electronic jazz through a panoramic roof ...
The new Jazz began to spend more economically to the driver's funds. 100 km of path can be driven to 6.2 liters of 95th gasoline. The engine volume is 1.4 liters, but its power is 104 hp. This is enough for driving around the city and the highway. However, the whole raspberry spoils the robotic box, although together with all the changes it was also improved. Unfortunately, I was not able to test the previous generation and feel improvement, the thoughtful robot in the movement will greatly fail. The achievements of engineers developing a box include the practical absence of a car rollback back on small rises, which many robots usually suffer. In manual transmission mode, they switch without delay, from Jazz they seem to remove the leash and, finally, the power of 100 horses begins to be felt.
For the suspension test, by the way, a removed roadway in the city center was removed. On an uneven road, Jazz began dancing a jive with jumps on sticking bumps-louds with crazy rhythm. Together with the jumping of the car, I jumped and, not forgetting about the glass roof above my head. The front suspension on the jazz racks MacPherson, the back torsion beam. What is felt by passing only one rear wheel on a bump, the car reacts to this with a full jump. At the same time, the car swallows the pits with much greater pleasure. If you forget about Extreme, Jazz manage to successfully move along the usual city even road domestic coatings. But the maneuvers of Jazz are difficult to stop the steering wheel of the steering wheel. In situations of instant response, unnecessary movements of the hands are completely inappropriate. With all this, the dynamic stabilization of VSA copes with the rolls in corners very successfully.
Special attention in Jazz deserves his attitude to the things of passengers. There are ten in the cabin! Places for storing drinks. The transformation of the salon remained the same. The rear seats are completely folded down, and it turns out a completely even floor at the same level with the bottom of the trunk. For transportation of high objects, the seat seats rise to the backs so that there is enough space to transport, for example, a washing machine.
Jazz is not a deaf, but good for a car of this class, the interior insulation helps to enjoy the wheel. On the trip to enjoy the music, neither the noise of the engine or other sound stimuli prevents.
In the new version, the safety of the car has also improved. The 2004 version was able to earn only four EURONCAP stars, and the new generation of 2009 received all five.
With a fresh design, dynamics of movement, always good weather under the glass roof Honda Jazz, it is easy to go to Chilaut for rhythmic jazz melodies. The main thing is not to plunge into Nirvana completely and monitor other, not yet relaxed participants in the movement.
Honda Jazz tested car, Executive, AMT, 1.4 liters, cost 742,613 rubles.
