All new 4th generation Honda Jazz! Crossover edition Crosstar with hybrid system... Avg. consumption: 4.4 L POV Test ride in city and highway Electric engine: 80 kW
@@carinik therefore honda fit 2008 engine is still far superior ? i have honda fit 2008 and it consume 1l per 20km+ at highway, my millage was 97k and for sure was tampered as i was second owner.
No, it was not. Look closely. The number is the trip consumption, which includes the city driving. The bar above it shows the actual consumption, which seems to vary between (estimated) 6 and 8 litres at 130. That's why the average is continuously increasing at 130.
@CreRay I misspoke, it's a continuously variable transmission, and in our country it's hard to buy newer vintages with manual transmission, and in my opinion they are much more pleasant to drive. Greetings
@@marekjanczewski This generation Jazz is not even available with a manual transmission, not in Europe at least. Except for highway driving, this Jazz is powered only by an electric motor. The petrol engine drives a generator and isn't connected to the wheels. Only above a certain speed a mechanical clutch establishes the mechanical connection between engine and wheels, but like a said, there is no gearbox. So either it is in "6th gear" or it has electric propulsion.
My Honda Jazz 1.3L CVT from 2019 can tow a lot more, cheaper in price, cheaper in roadtax (NL),is lighter, bigger boot, uses 5.1l\100km. So, why should I by the new Hybrid version?
You have manual gearbox? For someone using a car like this (hybrid) in a crowded city, not having to change gears every other meter is like having a therapist/psychologist, you name it, with you in the car, at all times. On top of this, most of the time there is absolutely no engine noise in the cabin, no vibrations, nothing, pure silence. Third, the more crowded the traffic, the lower the fuel consumption, while in a traditional ICE car, the more you stay and not move, the worse the fuel consumption (and your mood). Once you start using a hybrid you discover many benefits and start asking yourself while they appear just 25 years ago. Very, very, very good system for city driving. Reasonable good for highway.
If you make lots of km per year, and 95% of highway, diesel is still king. For Short highway trips but still 95% of it, you can consider this Jazz. If you don't exceed 120Km/h. In fact, at higher speed (80-120Km/h) the most economical way to drive this car is to keep the speed as stable as possible. This way, the clutch will connect the engine directly to the wheels. So ideally you always should stay below 120Km/h. This way I can get 4,7L/100Km. Over 120Km/h, you get about 5,5 - 6L/100Km of consumption. Obviously, this car is perfect for city and county roads. You can feel that the drivetrain was optimized for that. But still does very well on Highway too. Best thing you can do is to test drive it. Hope this helps.
@@sesvid I have tried this car in the city and I have found that the engine is SO NOISY. I could not try in the motorway, so I was wondering when the clutch connects the engine directly to the wheels, the noise of the engine is still high?
