The long-anticipated Honda Jazz BS6 premium hatchback is all set to be launched in India this month. While the BS6 compliant Jazz was supposed to be launched a few months ago, the coronavirus pandemic and the resultant lockdown forced Honda to suspend production activities for over a month, and also rejig its launch timeline.

Along with a BS6 compliant engine, the 2020 Honda Jazz will also come with a few updates, and here's everything we know about the car.
