About the Honda Jazz

The Honda Jazz carries more than any other small car, and the reason is the fuel tank position - Honda mounts it under the front seats, which frees up a deep, flat load bay behind. The rear "Magic Seats" fold flat or flip up cinema-style, so you can carry tall objects upright behind the front seats. It is also the only 1.5-litre engine in the hatchback group, so it climbs better than its rivals.

What is included

  • Comprehensive first-class insurance with Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) is included with every rental - there is no separate insurance upsell at handover.
  • Minimum rental period is 3 days.
  • A refundable security deposit of ฿3,000 covers the insurance excess. It is returned in full if it is not used.
  • Delivery and collection anywhere on Koh Samui - your hotel, villa or the airport - are included in the rate.

Any minor damage is deducted from the deposit and the balance returned. We photograph every panel, the interior, the fuel or charge level and the odometer at handover, and you get those timestamped photos with your digital contract - so there is a record to compare against rather than an argument.

Book the Honda Jazz

Who the Honda Jazz suits

Anyone carrying awkward cargo - dive kit, surfboards inside the car, a folded pram, market furniture. Also the pick for four adults in the hatchback class, since the rear seat is the roomiest of the group.

The Honda Jazz on Koh Samui roads

The flip-up rear seats are genuinely useful here in a way that is hard to appreciate until you need them. Carrying a bicycle, a large cooler, or the sort of thing you end up buying at the Nathon markets works in a Jazz and does not in a Yaris. With the seats folded flat the load bay is close to what a small SUV offers, at a hatchback rate and a hatchback parking footprint.

Honda Jazz rental - frequently asked questions

How much can the Honda Jazz actually carry?

With the rear seats folded flat, around 850 litres - close to a small SUV. The seats also flip up vertically, which lets you stand tall items like a bicycle or a large plant behind the front seats. No other small car in our fleet does this.

Is the Honda Jazz good for surfers or divers on Koh Samui?

It is the best small car we rent for bulky kit. Dive gear, wetsuits and a couple of boards inside the car all work with the Magic Seats folded, and everything stays locked and out of the sun.

Does the Jazz have a bigger engine than other hatchbacks?

Yes, 1.5 litres against 1.2 or 1.3 in the Yaris, Swift and Mazda 2. It is noticeably stronger on Samui's hill climbs when fully loaded.
