Malaysia is the only country outside Japan to introduce Honda’s new intelligent Dual-Clutch Drive (i-DCD) Hybrid System which is equipped with a new 1.5L DOHC i-VTEC engine. The Sport Hybrid i-DCD combines a seven-speed dual clutch transmission and a high power motor to provide a boost of acceleration to power when required. In Electric Vehicle (EV) mode the car is able to run on the electric motor alone with the engine coming in to assist in sustaining regenerative energy and fuel efficiency.
The Intelligent Power Unit (IPU) for the Sport Hybrid i-DCD system will be able to generate 1.5 times its energy capacity and double the system output. The horsepower of the New Jazz Hybrid is 135bhp, the equivalent output of a 1.8L engine.
The multi-adjustable Ultra Seats will also be a feature in the Jazz Hybrid.
