Back in March this year, Honda Cars India announced to offer dual air bags as a standard attachment to all its model by April 2017. While the cars like Honda City sedan, Amaze compact sedan and BR-V SUV are already enjoying such feature as standard equipment, Jazz is somewhere missing that part. But now it won’t, the automaker has made dual airbags as standard on every variant of the Jazz as well.
Previously, dual front airbags were only offered on the V, SV and VX trims, but, now even the entry level variant E and S will come up with said features as regular equipment. Of course, the additional stuff isn’t a treat from the carmaker, it will make you run for some extra money. The addition of dual airbags to these two above-mentioned trim levels has resulted in a price increase of INR 12,000. Below mentioned the new price of both Jazz E and S units.

Jazz E: INR 5,81,200
