Long waiting period of more than 3 months for popular new car models has become the norm since the Covid-19 pandemic started in 2020. Shortage in labour and supply of semiconductor parts post-pandemic, along with unstable logistics, make it difficult to predict when will this problem go away.

Besides the 2023 Honda Civic Type R (FL5) snatching clicks from attendees, the Honda SUV e:Prototype stands proud at the carmakers booth in the 39th Thailand International Motor Expo.

Amidst all the hullaballoo one neighbour quipped: "It's like seeing a celebrity!" Which, to be fair, isn't too far-fetched: there's tons of content out there which would give pr

We’ve seen the sneak peek and spyshot of the fourth generation Honda Jazz (also known as Fit in some markets like Japan) and now leaked images have found its way on the web. It appears to be in a Japanese magazine and may not be representative of the specs we will be getting. From the images, it seems that there will be 4 variants available in Japan - Basic, Ness, Luxe and Crosstar. Basic seems to be the “kosong” spec without alloys wheels, Ness appears to be more funky with its bright accent co

Honda will debut the all-new fourth-generation Honda Jazz at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show, alongside the tenth-generation Honda Accord and the electric-powered Honda e. While Honda has not released much information about the all-new Honda Jazz, its European arm has confirmed that the all-new model will be offered only as a hybrid model when it goes on sale in 2020. Tom Gardner, Senior Vice-President of Honda Motor Europe said, “In 2020, Honda will launch the next generation Honda Jazz and today, we

At the opening of the 2019 Frankfurt International Motor Show, Honda hosted the world premiere of the Honda e, a fully electric hatchback that will go on sale in Europe (only) first half of 2020, priced below a Nissan Leaf. Aside from that, Honda also gave slip some preliminary information regarding the all-new Honda Jazz. First launched in 2014, the Honda Jazz is due for a replacement soon. Tom Gardner, Senior Vice-President of Honda Motor Europe said, “In 2020, Honda will launch the next gener
