Yes it does.

Unfortunately no. The new AVN system is Garmin based and is a completely new head unit. But I'm sure you can get it as an accessory, but this will be pricey I'm sure.

It's actually very common to cross shop between the City and Jazz given it's the same engine, platform, and all. But here's how you can look at it:

The City is a bit more luxurious and this shows in its slightly better interior spec (the only one to offer a leather steering wheel and now, the navigation package for the VX). The suspension tuning is also plusher than the Jazz. However, the Jazz gives a much more flexible interior with the ULT seats and sportier handling.

Personally, I'd get the Jazz because of the flexibility offered by its ULT seats. I would trade the less luxury features and firmer ride for this. In fact, because of the smaller price difference between the VX and VX+ Jazz models, I'd spring the additional cash to get the VX+ and enjoy the safety of 6 airbags and VSA.

I think only the 6 airbags, and seatbelt reminder are the difference between VX and VX+. I'd go for VX since 4 additional airbags for 40k is not worth it.

Also I'd go for Jazz than City since specs wise, Jazz has the advantage for the VX variant since it was released later than the City. I think City's VX variant doesn't have VSA, HSA, ESS and other features that Jazz VX variant have. There is a huge difference in City's VX and VX+ variant.

Jazz VX+ also has VSA, HSA, and ESS as you mentioned. VX doesn't.

As for the City VX+, the reason for the hefty increase is because of the leather seats. VX+ models get them. VX doesn't.

Damn. Honda should get their shit straight. The assigned features for their cars are confusing as hell.

is the site wrong? http://www.hondaphil.com/model/jazz/specifications/ Jazz VX has HSA VSA and ESS

If VSA, HSA, and ESS are now standard on the VX then that's good news. That means they actually improved it over a year ago.

Whoa. I double checked...Jazz VX does have VSA, HSA, and ESS as standard even from before. So I guess the VX is better value than VX+.

Totz 6 airbags is good for that amount, it makes your family/friends/passenger/you safer, its better to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it.

Sir uly, yup i think those are already standard in the jazz vx variant. I was also confused at first since VX and VX+ variants should have the same specs in different cars. But i also noticed the upgrade from VX to VX+ variant in the City is about 90k compared to the Jazz which is 40k. I think the price goes to the VSA HSA ESS, etc.

As for the 6 airbags, I do think 40k is worth it for the 4 additional airbags if you have a family. But for a solo driver, I'd rather spend the 40k on the Modulo kits than 4 airbags :D though that's my opinion :D

Yeah...I saw that in the old Jazz article. My bad.

And you're right. The specs between the Jazz VX/VX+ and City VX/VX+ are confusing. But thanks for pointing that out.

The way I see it is I prefer to spend on things like ABS, VSA (active safety features) compared to passive safety features. I agree that I'll likely fork out P 40,000 for the additional 4 airbags, but since I can get the VSA, HSA, and ESS on the Jazz VX, I can live with that.

But...P 40,000 isn't much. If you can spring for it to get the additional airbags, why not. Else, ask for an additional discount...who knows...you might be able to get the VX+ close to the price of a VX!

Any news when will Jazz have the Navi system?

Sir Uly which has more legroom hiproom and shoulder room the Honda City or Jazz?

I'd say roughly the same, but for some reason...I prefer the rear seats of the City. I don't know if it has to do with the fixed bench or something, but they feel more comfortable over the Jazz.

thanks sir uly, I think the jazz is perfect for me kasi you can fold the seats and good for cargo. I just wished that mobilio and avanza had this long mode and tall mode like honda jazz

Honda City vs Honda Jazz... I hate to say this but the City feels more solid to me than the Jazz. Try checking out the doors between the two. Jazz doors feels like that of a Brio, while City doors feels like that of an Accord.

The MUGEN kit is basically just body kits and mags. So no, it won't lower the suspension.

It MIGHT lower your ground clearance though.

You're better of with the Mazda 2.

Reason?

Do you have evidence to support your claims?

Me too! LOL

If you're going to buy the Honda City Vx, get the Mazda 2 R, not the V. The R variant has the most value, more advanced vehicle than the Honda City and has more cool stuff(HUD,off white leather seats or black leather with red stripes, more advanced infotainment system, etc.) But if you have a family, get the Honda City because it is more spacious than the Mazda 2.

As a Mazda fan, choose the Honda City because you have a family, you'll definitely need the space. Otherwise, choose the Mazda 2 if you're a bachelor.

2016 model? I checked with Honda Batangas and they told me 2016 model maybe release this coming October.

which model you bought? Im also planning to buy 1.5E M/T...

Hi Sir Uly,

I have the same question. I recently bought 2016 Honda City VX and found out that it has no autolock feature. Some says that it can be programmed but the instructions I found in the internet seem not working.

Thank you for your help.

Un 1.5 E CVT Special Edition nila meron speed-sensing Auto Door Lock system. Sana nagkaron din special edition un VX.

I talked to my agent. May nabibiling device or a chip that can be installed for the autolock. it's worth Php2500.

Hi, how about auto unlock? my friends new City does not auto-unlock when he shift it to P or shuts down the engine.

I'm sure how it is with the City, but I remember you can change several vehicle settings through the Touchscreen Audio Display.

I think that would be entirely up to you. I'm usually a fan of white or silver/gray, but those are largely predictable and boring choices. But that's me.

I think it comes "camera ready". As far as I know, only the VX and VX+ come with reverse camera.

This is based on my personal (limited) experience in driving my 10-month old Honda City CVT. 7-8 kpl for city driving and 16 above for highways. Pero kung masipag ka to shift from D to N and vice versa every now and then, 10 above for city driving is possible. I am not sure nga lang if that is a good practice.

As mileage goes up, so as the kpl. Pag brand-new kasi the engine is still adjusting that's why kpl is lower. There are also other factors to consider like tire pressure (check mo rin), driving habit, AC, and car load.

Paddle shift

10 months of using it, no prob at all. Hopefully tuloy tuloy.

CVT works like A/T in such a way that you don't need to manually shift gears but the overall feel is different for both. You would notice that gears don't change, technically, when using CVT.

Theoretically vertical (ground) clearance will not be affected by Modulo kits but give it around 1 to 2 centimeters. Base trims (E, VX and VX+) say vertical clearance to be 15 cm.

Personally? Get the Honda Mobilio over the EcoSport.

Here's the City in Tafetta White:

Doesn't look like a taxi IMHO.

White dulls over time, so you need to take good care of it. Any damage repair will also be noticeable.

And yes, keyless entry is standard but push-button start/stop is only on higher grade variants.

Go for City..ecosport will only give you headaches...

Hi sir Uly... Looking to buy the 2016/2017 City VX+Navi CVT, but I'm torn between Taffeta White and Golden Brown. I'm female, married with kids. I have researched a lot and noted that the previous is safer on the road than any other colors. Pero nabasa ko rin comment mo sa taas saying "White dulls over time, so you need to take good care of it. Any damage repair will also be noticeable..", kaya nagdadalawang-isip na namn ako sa white. So if ever po, ano po kaya ang pinaka magandang kulay next to white, in your own opinion po sir. Thanks. Will wait for ur reply po. :)

Hi Wendy,

That's quite true. White is actually quite hard to maintain especially if it's exposed to our harsh sun for a long time. The main problem is that the dulling rating differs between the metal and plastic parts. This is the reason why some older white cars will have bumpers that look more yellowish compared to their paint.

Detailing them regularly will slow down the process, but it's not reversible. Think of it as UV damage.

Copy that, sir Uly. So, palagay nyo po, kung hindi nalng white ang kukunin, ano po kaya 2nd best color for the VX+? Yung opinyon nyo po. Magkaron lang po ako ng basis sa decision-making. Hehe. Thanks in advance for ur time, sir Uly. Mabuhay po! :)

For me, vehicle color is a matter of taste. If you want easiest maintenance, go with silver. It's boring for sure, pero that's the most painless to match in case you need to repaint it and it also hides dirt or scratches quite well.
