Honda Jade


The Honda Jade is a compact MPV produced by Honda. It was first introduced in the Chinese market in September 2013, where it is manufactured by Dongfeng Honda.
The Jade is based on the ninth generation Civic platform and has two seating versions for 5 or 4+2 passengers. The exterior is designed with similar styling cues, being an extended version to the Honda Fit. It also bears several similarities sporting in its bumpers and rear chrome trim to that of the Honda Odyssey that is based for the international market.

Market

The Jade was developed primarily with the Chinese market in mind but has since been released in Japan from February 2015 and parts of Asia such as Hong Kong, and previously in Singapore.
Besides the two seating options, there are two trim levels, and two transmissions and two engines to choose from.

Versions

In February 2015, a hybrid version went on sale in Japan with a 2+2+2 seating layout.
In May 2015, the Jade RS was launched to the Japanese market, offering a newly developed 1.5-liter direct injection VTEC Turbo engine rated at 150PS at 5,500 rpm and 203Nm of torque between 1,600 and 5,000 rpm.

Facelift

The facelifted Jade was unveiled at the 2016 Auto Guangzhou. The Japanese domestic market version of the facelifted Jade was launched on May 17, 2018, and went on sale on the following day. It was announced on the website on March 8, 2018. The current trim levels are G, RS, X, HYBRID RS and HYBRID X, which were now equipped with standard Honda Sensing.
