I read your reply to N.B. of Hurst, about the new Jazz I-Shift 'auto' option. Presumably Honda does not fit the torque converter box because of its need to get the emissions down as low as possible and mpg up, but from all reports the I-Shift is not going to win them many friends. I can’t imagine why they have dropped the CVT which in my experience works faultlessly in all of the modes, and is a credit to those responsible for its control system.
