Honda Jazz Privilege Edition launched at Rs. 7.36 lakh

The Privilege Edition is based on the V trim of the Honda Jazz. It commands a premium of Rs. 5,000 over the regular Jazz V.

Honda Cars India has introduced a special edition of its Jazz premium hatchback - dubbed Jazz Privilege Edition.

As with most special edition models, the changes to the Jazz Privilege Edition remain limited to cosmetic enhancements and additional equipment. The main highlight of the model is the addition of the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which otherwise is only available on the Jazz’s top-spec VX trim.

This system comes standard with satellite navigation, in-built storage capacity of 1.5GB, mirror link for smartphone connectivity, voice command functionality, bluetooth handsfree for calling and audio streaming, and HDMI-in port.

On the other hand - this system still does not support Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Other added features to the Jazz Privilege Edition include rear parking sensors, special seat covers & floor mats, and Privilege Edition branding.

The Privilege Editions also get all the standard features of the regular V trim, like dual front airbags, ABS, touch operated climate control, rear view camera, alloy wheels, electrically adjustable and foldable ORVMs and paddle shifts (in CVT variant).

Otherwise, the Privilege Edition remains mechanically similar to other models of the Honda Jazz. This means that power comes from either a 1.2-litre petrol engine with 88bhp and 110Nm, or a 1.5-litre diesel engine with 98.5bhp and 200Nm. The petrol engine gets a 5-speed manual gearbox or a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), while the diesel model is only offered with a 6-speed manual gearbox.

The Honda Jazz Privilege Edition is priced at Rs. 7.36 lakh for petrol manual, Rs. 8.42 lakh for petrol CVT, and Rs. 8.82 lakh for diesel versions.
