The Great Honda Hybrid Discovery - Honda Jazz Hybrid

Hey! Last weekend I was cruising around town in this Honda Jazz Hybrid. The Great Honda Hybrid Discovery - Honda Hybrid Family Road Trip was at Amcorp Padang Timur, Petaling Jaya from 28^th till 29^th Sept 2013. Inspired by how Mother Nature does things naturally, Honda created a range of hybrid cars to give something back to nature. Honda Malaysia introducing the Hybrid Family - Honda Jazz Hybrid, Honda Insight Hybrid, Honda Civic Hybrid and Honda CR-Z Hybrid. 

Do you know that Honda Jazz Hybrid is produced in Malaysia? Yes! it is, Honda Jazz Hybrid is the first hybrid car that produced in Malaysia.

Honda Jazz Hybrid in Taffeta White

The Honda Jazz with hybrid technology and retaining the flexibility of the Jazz’s unique ulTra Seats allows a huge storage space and comfort. 

It uses two distinct power sources – 1.3L i-VTEC engine and an electric motor. This Integrated Motor assist (IMa) hybrid system enables the Honda Jazz Hybrid to achieve better fuel efficiency without compromising the car performance.

It is ergonomically designed for more convenience and comfort with a sporty touch. all the buttons and knobs are strategically placed within easy reach when we are driving.

stop over at Universiti Malaya

I stopped over at the University Malaya to send my cousin so we had a quick jogged on sunday morning around the campus. Glad to see there are still many trees, lake and hilly jogging track. I hope that the university will preserve the greenery and this beautiful view.

Do you like Jazz Hybrid color? Mine is sparkling brown metallic I quite like this color. Well, the Honda Jazz Hybrid is available in 5 colours which is Taffeta White, Alabaster Silver Metallic, Polished Metal Metallic, Sparkling Brown Metallic and Crystal Black Pearl.

Overall, I find that the fuel consumption is very low. We have been driving around to and from Shah Alam, Subang, Klang, Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur few trips. Plus even stuck in the traffic jams we only used barely half a tank of fuel. I really amazed with this fuel efficiency and cost saving hybrid car. I like the clear wide vision and the front side glass panel that allows me to have a clearer view on the road. The Honda Jazz Hybrid is easy to handle even for the first timer. Most of the functions buttons are pretty easy to understand and use. 

I like the intelligent design, from outside it might look small but inside the car is spacious. Plus the compartments allow us to store and organize our stuff neatly.

The road holding of the Honda Jazz Hybrid is steady and has quite a stable grip when I try on the cornering (I did not drift). Based on the 1.3L vehicles, the Jazz Hybrid pick up rate is at par and fast ignition. The whole driving experience was pleasant and fun. We should consider hybrid car for cleaner environment, greener future and cost saving as the fuel price is going up.
