heights, weights and frame construction. The ACE body structure of the Jazz prevents cabin crumple whilst reducing the chances of vertical or lateral misalignment between the Jazz and another vehicle's safety structures. The tACE structure provides exceptional stiffness which also improves side impact protection.Pedestrian protection: The Jazz is packed with features to protect pedestrians. Research has shown that these features can dramatically improve a pedestrian's chance of survival if struck by a moving vehicle. Features include: windscreen wiper pivots designed to break away on impact, energy absorbing front wing mounts and bonnet hinges, as well as a clear area beneath the bonnet to allow it to crumple and absorb impact.
Active headrests: The new Jazz is also equipped with front seat active headrests which reduce the likelihood of neck injury in rear impacts. As the occupant is pushed against the seat back, a rigid plate in the seat presses a link to the headrest pushing it up and forward to support the head. HONDA JAZZ ACHIEVES TOP POINTS FOR EURO NCAP RATINGThe new Jazz is one of the UK 's safest cars, according to the new independent crash test results from Euro NCAP.
Jazz has been awarded the maximum five star rating matching the achievements of the Honda Civic and Accord earlier this year. Euro NCAP's new rating scheme focuses on the vehicle's overall safety performance which gives consumers an easy to understand single score. The new system considers passenger protection during impact to the front, side and rear of the car, and pole (if the car impacts with a tree or other fixed narrow object).
