The Honda Jazz might be a sorely missed name among fans but its replacement, the Honda City Hatchback has been a healthy seller for Honda Malaysia. That said, the first-generation Honda Jazz was a game-changer when it was introduced in 2001. The Jazz would go on to become a worldwide smash hit but over in its home market, the Fit as it was called in Japan would go on to be a literal superstar for Honda. It won numerous awards including a sweep of two of Japan’s major car of the year awards in 20

Secondly, pricier cars usually mean pricier maintenance as well.

Purists might lament the fact that Toyota is developing an 8-speed automatic (8AT) for the GR Yaris but then again, if purists dictated the direction of the automotive industry, we wouldn’t even have power steering.
