Small outside, practical inside
The Jazz's tall roof and upright shape give it more headroom and a squarer load area than most light hatches. That makes it a handy car for people who need to carry odd-shaped items now and then, such as a guitar case, a small bike or flat-pack furniture, without hiring a van. It is also easy to see out of, which suits newer drivers.
Running costs
The Green Vehicle Guide lists the Jazz VTi, VTi-S and VTi-L with the 1.5-litre engine and CVT automatic, released in 2014, at 5.8 L/100km combined, and the manual VTi at 6.2. Earlier Jazz automatics from the 2008–2013 generation are listed at 6.6 to 6.7. The 2014-on cars are listed on regular 91 RON unleaded. If your listing is a Jazz Hybrid, the guide rates the 2013 hybrid at 4.5 L/100km combined.
Practical points
- Seats: five belts in a light car. Rear legroom is generous for the class, but three adults across the back is still tight.
- Driving it: light steering and a small turning circle make it easy in car parks; at freeway speed it is noisier than a larger car.
- Rideshare: check the specific car against Uber's current Melbourne requirements, including the ANCAP 5-star rating and the 15-year age limit for UberX, before planning rideshare work.

Renting a Honda Jazz: questions
How much fuel does a Honda Jazz use?
The Green Vehicle Guide lists the 2014-on Jazz VTi 1.5L CVT at 5.8 L/100km combined. Older 2008–2013 automatics are rated at 6.6 to 6.7.
Is the Jazz big enough to carry bulky items?
For its size, yes. Its tall, square body takes items that would not fit in a lower hatch, though it is still a light car, not a van.
Is the Jazz automatic?
The 2014-on Jazz VTi rated above uses a CVT automatic. Manual versions were also sold, so check the listing.
