Honda has announced prices for the new-look Jazz will start at £14,115.

Alongside the cosmetic updates comes the ontroduction of a new Sport edition, which feature a 1.5-litre engine with 130PS.

The existing 102PS 1.3-litre unit remains the only choice for the rest of the line-up.

Entry-level S models are fitted as standard with convenience features such as air conditioning, cruise control with speed limiter and dusk sensing auto lights.

The mid-grade SE is priced from £15,615 on-the-road, adds front and rear parking sensors, electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors and 15” alloy wheels.

Top of the range EX models cost £17,115 and feature keyless entry and start, automatic climate control and reversing camera. Styling is enhanced with 16-inch alloy wheels and front fog lamps, while LED headlights are now standard addition on the EX.

The Jazz Sport is based on the SE grade. It benefits from a thinner front splitter beneath the lower grille, and triple-strake diffuser to the rear bumper – both finished with a sporty red accent line similar to the Civic Type R, LED headlights, front fog lamps, side sill skirts, a tailgate spoiler and gloss-black 16” alloy wheels.

Inside there is a unique pinstripe pattern on the upholstery and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, all of which are enhanced by orange stitching.

Phil Webb, head of car at Honda UK, commented: “The Jazz is our best-selling car in the UK and has been rejuvenated with the new Sport model, as well as the new interior and exterior styling. The Jazz is a very important model for us, with an extremely loyal following, so we look forward to seeing this success continue with the new line up and the addition of the Sport model.”

The new Jazz is available to order now, with deliveries expected in February.
