It’s fair to say the Honda Jazz, while practical and long-lasting, has rarely been the most exciting of vehicles, but the Crosstar is Honda’s attempt to inject a little excitement into the model, cribbing styling cues from SUVs without compromising on the impressive driving manners, utility and economy of the Jazz.
If you’re reading this you may already have decided the styling is for you, and the good news is there’s little else about the Crosstar that should put you off either. Buying used helps offset one of the few problems it has as a new car, its somewhat expensive price.
A handful of companies have dressed up their small cars in off-road gear like Honda has done with the Jazz Crosstar before, so if you like the idea, then seek out a Ford Fiesta Active, Skoda Fabia Scout or Hyundai i20 Active - though only the Honda remains on sale new, so all these rivals will be older.
If you like the idea of the economy and practicality of the regular Jazz but wish it had more interesting styling, then the Crosstar could be the solution. It’s not a night and day difference from the car it’s based on, but the in-vogue application of tough-looking unpainted plastic cladding to the car’s exterior does help the Crosstar stand out.
We’re not sure the raised ride height will necessarily make much difference to Jazz buyers - the Crosstar is 30mm taller than a regular Jazz, but Honda doesn’t say how much of this is the fact it comes with roof rails as standard - but the cladding may help with the odd brush when parking and the fabric upholstery is water-repellent too, which is useful whether you’ve just come back from a rainy hike or simply spill a drink on your seats.
The cabin is straightforward in design and in typical Honda style feels built to last, which is welcome news for used car buyers, and the Jazz remains incredibly practical in Crosstar form - if the 298-litre boot doesn’t sound enormous, the flip-down ‘Magic Seats’ mean few if any rivals make carrying larger items as easy, and with the seats in place, there’s a lot more space for adults than in say, a Fiesta too.
The Crosstar remains a doddle to drive in town like the regular Jazz too, and it has a tight turning circle, front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. Out of town it’s confidence-inspiring and the hybrid setup copes wherever you are. If you’re seeking every mile per gallon the Crosstar isn’t quite as frugal as the regular Jazz - but it’s likely to be equally reliable long-term.
In the supermini market, models similar to the Crosstar include the Ford Fiesta Active (fun, but not as practical) and the older Skoda Fabia Scout and Hyundai i20 Active, though the Crosstar also crosses paths with… well, crossovers, including the Honda HR-V, Nissan Juke, Suzuki Vitara, and Skoda Kamiq.

There’s only one, since the Crosstar is effectively a trim line (just a distinctive-looking one) in the normal Jazz range, based on EX trim, and a well-equipped one at that. There’s only one engine too, the 1.5-litre hybrid standard across the Jazz range, and it’s only marginally slower and less efficient so if you like the Crosstar’s style there’s no real penalty for choosing it over any other Jazz. Your choice pretty much comes down to colour (a white, black, and red, and then a white, red, and light blue with a black roof), and a few visual option packs that colour some of the Crosstar styling elements in either silver or body colour.
The Crosstar is itself a trim level in the regular Honda Jazz range, based on the EX grade, so there are no separate trim lines for the model. As a result it also serves as the de facto range-topper in the Jazz lineup, so if you want the highest equipment levels in a Jazz, the Crosstar is the one to go for whether you like the look of the plastic cladding or not.

The Honda Jazz Crosstar’s boot size is:
As a ‘proper’ hybrid, the Jazz Crosstar enjoys a small discount on its Vehicle Excise Duty rate, costing you £170 per year to tax - a tenner less than petrol and diesel equivalents.
While the group 19 insurance for the Jazz Crosstar is high by supermini standards - a Fiesta Active spans groups 13-17 depending on the engine - it’s pretty similar to other Jazz models, so shouldn’t be notably more or less expensive to insure than its siblings.
