2025 Honda Jazz (Fit) to get a new design in China
While Honda axed the Jazz hatchback in India in 2020, it continues to be on sale in the prime global markets like China. For 2025, the GAC-Honda collaboration is soon going to introduce a new Honda Fit (Jazz) in China.
The leaked images of the updated model showcase its completely new front design. The 2025 Honda Fit will get a sharp front fascia with sleek LED DRLs and new LED headlamps. The front bumper has also been revamped to give it a sharper look.
The side profile of the updated model is unchanged, and so is the rear design. The new model is likely to be a facelift, as the previous update of the GAC-Honda Fit rolled out in 2020 in China.
The cabin design is also expected to remain similar to the current model, except for a few new features. Moreover, it will continue to be powered by the FWD 1.5-litre petrol engine, which is mated to a CVT automatic gearbox.
The new facelift will exclusively launch in China, and Honda has no plans to launch it in India. In fact, Honda is focusing on the SUV market in India due to its big potential.

Our conclusion
The Honda Jazz used to be a popular hatchback in India due to its frugal diesel engine and a very spacious cabin, which came with flexi seats for utmost practicality. However, Honda changed its focus for India, and now the company is working on introducing new SUVs.
