All NEW HONDA JAZZ PRICE DROPPED BY 1.5LAKHS!!!

Following the drop in the prices of the Honda City, Honda Siel has now dropped the prices of the Jazz too! And boy, are they prices tempting or what? The new face-lifted Honda Jazz starts at Rs 5.5 lakhs now for the Jazz S version, with the Jazz Select coming in at Rs 5.75 lakh and the top-level Jazz X at Rs 6.06 lakhs, all prices ex-showroom, Delhi. Needless to say, for the large practical hatchback that it is, it’s great value now.


The facelifted Jazz now has an updated grille and front bumper, new headlights, new 15-inch alloy wheels and a refreshed rear bumper in some variants. The interiors, on the other hand, now get a new beige-black colour scheme along with ‘stereoscopic dials’ and also rear reclining seats. On the Jazz X, you also get an electrically retractable ORVM and an USB port for the music system. A new ‘Urban Titanium’ colour has also been added to the line-up as well.
There never was a better time to buy the large, practical and comfortable Honda hatch. 

Does the Jazz look better in the flesh than in the pictures?
Make no mistake — the Jazz is a very proportionate design that looks oh-so state-of-the-art, despite the fact that it is almost three years old in world markets. Though it can be broadly called a hatchback, the overall effect is that of “Honey, I shrunk an Innova!” The ‘space-shell module’ design would have made Jules Verne proud.


Can we expect a funky interior?
The Jazz interior is spacious and extremely user friendly. The flexible ‘Magic’ seats can convert the interior to suit your hauling needs. It comes loaded with goodies and has lots of storage space too. The luggage area at the back may prompt prospective buyers to demand a third row of seating — it is that spacious! The dashboard is a bit of a complex design, but instrumentation is not as futuristic as in the Civic. And yes, you do get a CD player and not just an AUX and USB input, as in the case of the new City.


How is the ride quality and handling on Indian roads?
The Jazz rides on 15-inch wheels and relatively fat rubber that negates potholes with ease. That said, rear seat ride quality is not much to write home about. On the handling front, the Jazz is difficult to fault, with a neutral attitude even at three digit speeds. Good drivers will appreciate the precise power steering set-up.

Honda Jazz and Maruti Suzuki Ritz both feature 1.2-litre engines and both come with airbags and ABS (the ZXi version of the Ritz does). So why should I pay more for the Jazz?
Judging the Jazz by its engine capacity alone will be like judging  The Godfather by its black-and-white jacket. It is a bigger car than the Ritz and rides and drives like one. If your driving is limited to the city, the Ritz does make sense but it cannot be compared to the Honda when it comes to driver involvement. But we do understand and respect the value the Ritz offers to prospective buyers.

BEST LAMBORGINI MURCILIAGO EVER MADE

Image
  CLICK ABOVE TO WATCH  Enough with the spy shots and speculation, here it is folks: The Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce. Bologna's best automaker has just released official info and pics on its latest mighty Murc, and this one tops them all. The LP 670-4 SuperVeloce is described by Lamborghini as "exceptionally purist". The description fits as the LP 670-4 SV is more powerful, lighter and therefore faster than the already pretty quick LP-640. As its name suggests, the LP 670-4 SV boasts an increase in power to 670 hp and 487 lb-ft of torque for Lambo's 6.5L V12, all of which was achieved through simply optimizing the engine's valve timing and tweaking the air intake system. Combine those extra bulls under the bonnet with a weight decrease of 220 lbs and performance figures begin to fall fast. 0-62 mph is now achieved in just 3.2 seconds and top speed is 212 mph with the standard, small spoiler. A larger "Aeropack Wing...

APPLE IPHONE 5 FINALLY RELEASED!!!!

Image
/ We have been hearing several rumors about the 5th generation iPhone since the launch of its sibling iPhone 4. The highly anticipated phone from the Apple stable has been rumored to be gearing up for a AUGUST release. Now the recent news spotted on BGR and a relatively small Italian iPhone website, iPhone Italia seems to confirm these speculations. While the iPhone Italia cited a anonymous Swisscom source on its site stating that the Apple iPhone 5 smartphone will be shipped on September 5 in US followed by a global launch in October, BGR also mirrored similar outlook. According to BGR, Apple has asked it's former employees to return between August 15th and AUGUST 20 as part time workers, which could indicate that Apple iPhone 5 may be making an early entry.  Apple's much touted Apple iPhone 5 is rumored to be powered by a A5 processor and a more powerful chipset with the handset. Sporting a 8-megapixel camera instead of a 5-megapixel as that of iPh...

Volkswagen Jetta Highline review

Image
Volkswagen is definitely on the charge and there’s little they are willing to stop at. They rolled out two new cars last year to gain favour with the Indian consumer and have taken it a step further this year. The new Passat was launched a few months earlier and now they’ve given us the brand new Jetta. Unlike the predecessor, this new car does not seem like a car carved out of a Golf and a Passat, instead it looks like the proportionate whole that VW had set out to make it. There is of course the slight area of contention where some of you might point to the fact that it looks entirely too similar to the Vento, but then family faces seems to be a thing that German manufacturers revel in. This new car of course shares little with the Vento beyond the front end appearance, in fact it shares little with the older Jetta. It is longer and wider like most new cars tend to be and it’s better equipped too. The interiors have also had a complete makeover and although the basic layout ma...
