- Hybrid engine keeps fuel costs down
- Marginally more polluting than the hatch
- Other costs should be low too
You’ve only one engine choice in the Jazz Crosstar (as with the hatch) and it’s a hybrid, so fuel economy and CO2 emissions are pretty low. That said, the SUV version is marginally worse than the hatch, with 58.8mpg and 110g/km of CO2 on offer, due to its additional size and the fact it comes with 16-inch wheels.
Even so that’s not a particularly large wheel so tyre costs should be low, and the hybrid system’s regenerative braking means reduced pad and disc wear.
Reliability
- Good history of reliable Jazz models
- Crosstar is taller but not that different
- Engine and interior tech untested
The Honda Jazz has a strong reputation for reliability across its previous generations, with the most recent subjected to exactly zero recalls. While this is technically a new variant of the Jazz hatchback, the Crosstar shouldn’t cause any additional bother when it comes to reliability.
That said, new tech in this car including the infotainment and dial screens, plus the hybrid powertrain, are largely untested. Even so, we don’t think the Jazz Crosstar will give you much to worry about.
