Images of the next-generation Honda Jazz Type R have leaked online. The hatchback is reported to debut at the 2020 Tokyo Motor Show.

According to the leaked images, the Type R is likely to feature a trapezoidal grille with a chrome bar. It has sweptback headlamps with integrated LED daytime running lights. The car gets a dual-tone bumper with round fog lamps and red accents, a red Honda badge and Type R logo on the grille. It has front and rear quarter glass and blacked-out B pillar. The ORVMs are finished in black and it also has a black rear spoiler, side skirts and 5-spoke alloy wheels shod with low profile tyres.

The Jazz Type R is expected to get a 1.5-litre petrol engine producing 217 BHP and 245 Nm of torque. The standard Jazz is also likely to get a hybrid powertrain.

The next-generation Jazz is expected to go on sale in the international market sometime next year. However, there is no word yet on whether it will be offered in India.
