Honda Cars India are likely to pull the plug on the WRV, Jazz and the 4th-gen City. By the end of March 2023, Honda will end the production of the aforementioned models and bring fresh products to the market. Meanwhile, the Japanese carmaker will continue to sell the Amaze, 5th-gen City and City e:HEV hybrid.

Honda have been lagging behind a bit with their ageing range of products. The only fresh product in the portfolio is the 5th-gen City, which received a strong hybrid drivetrain recently. Reports suggest that Honda decided to discontinue the ageing range of products that include the Jazz, WRV and 4th gen City.

Honda are likely to stop the production of the Jazz and 4th-gen City by October 2022 and December 2022 respectively. The production of the WRV crossover is likely to end only after March 2023. That’s when Honda will launch their new sub-4m compact SUV in the country. In addition to the sub-4m compact SUV, Honda are also working on a compact SUV that could hit our shores in 2024.

The new sub-compact SUV from Honda will rival other sub-4m compact SUVs like the Tata Nexon and Maruti Arena Brezza. The compact SUV, on the other hand, will rival the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos, among others. Both SUVs will sit on the Amaze’s modified platform and share the engines with the new CIty. The compact SUV could also offer a strong hybrid drivetrain seen in the City e:HEV hybrid.
