Honda has made history at the inaugural Workshop Magazine Awards collecting the Car of the year with the Jazz and the coveted Manufacturer of the Year.

Readers of Workshop Magazine expressed their praises for the logical design of the award-winning Honda Jazz. Honda was commended as the manufacturer of the year for its utmost efficiency and strong relationships with workshops.

Building on the strong reputation of its highly successful predecessors, the new Jazz is known as a global car with 5,000,000 units sold worldwide since the first production model was introduced in 2001. The Jazz is set to receive a revamp with a 1.5 I-VTEC engine being added to the range including new trim levels.

Rebecca Chaplin – Head of Editorial at Blackball Media, said: “We had feedback from a lot of garages all praising the Honda Jazz for being easy to work on, reliable and for Honda itself when it comes to getting parts for it.” “It was a tough contest but nothing else could quite match it!”

“Equally, Honda should be delighted with the manufacturer of the year award because it’s a testament to what the workshop industry believes is the best manufacturer to work with. Franchise and independent garages love working with Honda because, whether they need parts or support, it always come up trumps offering the best service for workshops when they need it.”

“With both of these awards being voted for by the readers of Workshop magazine, it makes them all the more powerful and all the more special with Honda being recognised by those at the sharp end on the tools in the workshop,” added Phil Webb, Head of Car at Honda UK.
