The 1.2 and 1.4 liter engine are for what markets?
The all-new ASEAN Honda Jazz made its debut in Thailand with a 120PS 1.5 liter VTEC engine.
A 1.3 will probably be offered in other asian markets...

Are you kidding, those are the kind of engines that are perfect for the American market. Believe me, I'm all for driving V8's, but right now, in such a crisis, I'd love to have a 1.2L engine. That's the type of stuff that would save Ford...

It's interesting to note that the European and Japanese/Asian market Jazz/Fit is 'cuter' just because it is overall shorter than the US/Canada spec Honda Fit. Not only do the bumpers of the North American model extend more but upon close inspection, the overall nose is longer too (i.e. bigger engine compartment; not sure if extending the engine bay was necessary or perhaps it was designed for safer frontal collision) Looking at the NA model, the tip of the headlight is farther away from the A pillar compared to the other world market's version. Personally, this creates a less balanced car aesthetically because there seems too much frontal overhang.

it could be because the cars in NA and canada are alot bigger than europe so you need abit of a bigger car to be safe if you were ever to have a crash...

....i've never noticed it daimlerz...thanks...anyway the previous jazz was a tremendous hit in ASEAN countries,this car is small,but packs a heavy punch inside...the global market need this class of car, and some big companies are late to enter the market

Its cool i guess...But as far as small Hondas go, i want to see a Fit Type R even if it would only be sold in Japan.

The engines seem to be very good with excellent fuel economy, but the car is not good looking at all, and seems out dated.

Yuk, Looks the same as the older model, so this is ALL new? Evolution yeah right...
The Mazda 2 is a much better looking car and overtaken the Jazz/Fit

This is exactly what it is - an evolution, not a design from the ground up. If you put the old and the new side by side, you will definitely notice the differences. The Mazda 2 is a nice design but still does not offer the versatile functionality of the Fit/Jazz. Different strokes for different folks.

No, its definitely not a looker, but for useability, versatility and space, few supermini/small cars can beat it. It has grown a little bit on its predecessor but it virtually weighs the same.
