The Honda Logo is a 3/5-door hatchback from Honda, built from 1996 to 2001, when airbags, anti-lock brakes and Japanese build quality became the world standard. Under the bonnet: 1343&nbsp.

The background

The Honda Logo is a supermini car (B-segment) which was made by Honda from 1996 to 2001. It is a three- or five-door hatchback that replaced the second-generation City and was then superseded by the Fit/Jazz. It slotted between the smaller kei-class Life and the larger Civic in Honda's range of the era.

The Honda Capa and Honda HR-V were developed from the Logo's platform. The Logo was manufactured in Japan and assembled at Honda's factory in Suzuka, Mie. It was marketed in Japan through dealerships of Honda Clio from 1996 to 2001, and briefly in Europe between 1999 and 2001.

The engineering

Power comes from 1343&nbsp. It weighs 790 -. It shifts through a 3-speed automatic / 5-speed manual / CVT. The wheelbase is 2360 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

Where it sits

Its family tree is legible: it took over from the Honda City (series GA1-GA2); its successor was the Honda Fit; assembly was at Suzuka, Mie, Japan. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Porsche Boxster, the Škoda Auto Škoda Octavia, the Lotus Elise — show what else the money bought that year. Its Honda stablemates include the Honda Envix and the Honda Crider.
