    Jazz hybrid likely same length as Fit, 162"

    Prius length 176"

    rear end should be different

    Oh I just love it when I say, where's your Civic hatchback Honda? and they say, we have the Fit! .. oh brother, where's the other 15"?

    Remember, Honda said it has no plans to bring the hybrid Jazz/Fit to the U.S...

    Gosh I wish someone could fix the thread title. But I wanted to suggests something else is going on . . . parallel development.

    Aerodynamic shapes have more in common than apart. Sure paint and metal trim can be different but physics pretty well limits the options for efficient shapes. So I'm not bent out of shape by parallels from one body shape to another. Heck the Ford Focus and NHW11 Prius are much more alike than apart.

    Anyways, Honda did "choked" on their hybrid development!
