May Honda Fit for America?


While Honda is preparing for the Yedo Motor Show for a spanking new jazz, the standing of its American twin market remains unknown. A few surprises if the Honda work can act on us, or a soldier in alternative regions below the Jazz plate.

Honda refused to publicly try something, but hope remains. Last week's carmaker free preview pictures of the prototype, pointing to it because the Jazz, but if you concentrate on the back finish you will be able to see it clearly labeled as a job.

As much as we’d prefer to take credit for the spot, CarBuzz beat United States to the punch. however we’re curious on why no one else gave the impression to notice, because the badging appears blatantly obvious once it’s been noted.



From CarBuzz:

A advocate from Honda wouldn’t make sure if the new work are sold-out within the United States however hinted that the work and Jazz have traditionally been an equivalent product, albeit with completely different drivetrains. Zooming in on Honda’s teaser image shows a “Fit” badge on the rear, that might be another hint that Honda’s new auto can return to the United States in any case. We’re keeping our fingers crossed.

From the teaser image and paradigm spy shots, the new work can adopt a sleeker style than this model, whereas Honda says it'll retain its spacious cabin and versatile seating arrangement. The Euro-spec Honda Jazz are steam-powered by a brand new, a lot of economical two-motor hybrid system and deliver “strong and easy driving performance.” within the United States, this Honda work is steam-powered by a one.5-liter inline-four manufacturing a hundred thirty H.P. and 114 lb-ft of force once paired with a six-speed manual, or 128 power unit and 113 lb-ft with the nonobligatory CVT.

Unfortunately work sales ar on the decline, adding validity to rumors that the model could also be out of print in North America. Honda is additionally considering shifting work production out of Mexico and back to Japan therefore the facility will specialize in the HR-V. It’s not like somebody at the corporate accidentally applied a work emblem to the model being excited globally. In fact, it's to be a wholly new brand, creating this semi-meaningful. however Japan has been mistreatment the work name forever, belongings the remainder of the globe have the Jazz, therefore this might even as simply be nothing.

Even if Honda keeps the Jazz/Fit out of America, we’ll possible see that i-MMD dual-motor hybrid drivetrain placed within alternative models. The Jazz debuts at the Yedo Motor Show later in the week. We’ll keep our eyes unclothed for the work at the LA automobile Show in Gregorian calendar month.
