Several details about the 2018 Honda Jazz facelift have already leaked online, according to which the updated model will come in only three primary variants - S, V, and VX, which are segmented into seven different iterations depending on the engine and transmission options. Exterior and interior updates are expected to be minimal, featuring the familiar 'Solid Wing Face' headlights and grille design, new sharper looking front bumper, more aggressive contours around the air vents with a red underline accent among others. We also expect to see new alloys and a slightly revised taillamp.

A set of cabin images of the top-end VX trim of the Honda Jazz facelift were recently leaked online, and based on those, we know that that car will get a bunch of interior updates as well. The Jazz facelift will now feature a larger 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which is equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for smartphone connectivity. The system also features voice command function with controls mounted on the steering wheel. The three-spoke steering wheel now also features the cruise control button on the right side.

Under the hood, the Jazz facelift will continue to feature a 1.2-litre petrol and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. The 1.2-litre petrol punches out 89 bhp while the torque figure stands at 110 Nm. The 1.5-litre diesel offers 99 bhp and 200 Nm of torque. A 5-speed manual gearbox will be offered as standard, while the petrol trim will also come with a CVT automatic transmission as an option.
