But, despite the fact that the best sidesThe previous model was preserved, including the dimensions of the interior space, which is quite capable of competing with cars of a higher class, changes occurred in every aspect of the new Jazz.

In addition, the new Jazz is now even easier to get into the salon and go out thanks wide-opening rear doors, which now have three fixed opening levels, which provides greater convenience in tight city parking.

The torque value increased to 127 Nm at 4,800 rpm, while in the previous model this figure was 119 Nm at 2800 rpm.
