Honda SA Ipoh branch told me minimum need to wait 3 month for this car if take now. Was hoping to choose Jazz as my 1st car but no choice need to look into other brand.

3 months for jazz petrol or hybrid?

I hope to get jazz CKD also, can anyone share with their FC with full tanked?

My full tank is rm31l for 360kms. That translate to 11.6km/l. Bear in mind that this is used for approx 9 days on short trips. Will need to monitor since this is the first tank and the car is still new.

U booked yours dy?

RM31 for 360km?

Whoops... No rm in front... 31l for 360kms!

Didn't I say, you wont get the 670 km shown on your MID, lol.. anyhow, 31L for is not rreally good.. Keep us updated on your next FC... It should improve...

I believe possible la bro. Just that it's for highway use!

31L 360km is veerrryy bad

any comment on the back seat?

Back seat is surprisingly spacious. It's more spacious than myvi SE. Comparable to sedan cars.

back seat of jazzP can be slightly reclined, (u can find this feature in 1st gen myvi).

surprisingly, this is why i chose jazzP over vios2013.
well not fair comparison eh?
i dun really need space & my priority is comfortable back seat.

also, please check the telescopic steering column, u can adjust the reach of the steering wheel to ur liking.

I went to honda dealer to test drive Jazz Petrol but they say only have Hybrid version. Tested the hybrid it was ok and silent and smooth.

So the SA let me test City to test the engine since jazz and city share the same engine. I found the engine noise to be much louder than the Hybrid version.

Any idea if the Jazz Petrol radio/cd sound system is ok? Does it sound cheap?

Yes, there are no test drive unit for Jazz P. So, you need to "agak agak" with City. I also found that the engine noise is a tad louder but it might be new, so cannot do a fair comparison. I'm comparing this with other 1.5l petrol engines. Of course if you compare with hybrid, it would be louder coz hybrid uses the electric motor when low speed or stationary.

The sound system on Jazz P is great, in my opinion. Good balance of bass and treble.

peringgit motor jln klang lama only jazzhyb for test drive.
& i can live with the noise of jazzhyb +- like 1stgen myvi.

hopefully jazzpet doesn't vary much with jazzhyb.

You tested jazz petrol before?

Reason is because the engine is much nearer to the cabin in the jazz compared to city. So i believe jazz will be even noisier if compared to city. Above 3k rpm in the honda city i already find the engine to be buzzy. God knows how it will be when vtec kicked in the jazz

still deciding between going for better design(jazz) or going for better driving experience(almera/vios/polosedan)

nope, no TD jazzpet since no unit available.

valid reasoning. that's why i hope it would as quiet as myvi.
my expectation isn't big.

i only interested in polosedan, for better driving. i'm haven't td polosedan yet.
but if u r going for a sedan, try preve cfe. it's surprisingly quiter than jazzpet.
& if hiway travel is my concern, preve cfe anytime..or perhaps suprima s.

maybe later...haha

preve not so fuel economically because i'm doing 80% city all the time

When I rev my JH above 4k rpm, I feel like I am driving aeroplane, cos of the noise.. I think the vtec already kicks in.. But no doubt it is very smooth..

it's harder by comparison to other honda models due to the ultraseats...

actually... i trust the sound is actually more of the exhaust noise than the engine from the L15a unit...

it's no bang & olufsen on a merc, that's for sure... but it does a decent job for most people...

it's all based on your expectations...

dun set your expectations too high... the L15A is a single cam vtec with no cam lift... just variable valve timing if i am not wrong...

it just sounds louder than what you hear @ 3k revs...

apart from the looks for the current GE8... the plus point for me other than it being more feminine (jus jokin )... it is actually more flexible with the ultraseats.. people who have driven myvi and kenari's before this will understand it... it can ferry things no almera, jazz or even a camry or accord can carry...
