The Honda Jazz is all set to receive its first mid-cycle facelift in India and the car will go on sale in the country on July 19. The current-generation Jazz was launched in India in 2015 and this update was a much-needed one, especially considering the fact that the Hyundai i20 facelift has been in the market for almost six months now. Globally, Honda has already revealed the car and most of the design and styling bits are expected to be introduced for the India-spec model as well.
