Honda's small hatchback, launched in Japan in 2001 and sold in many countries as the Jazz. Its trick is the fuel tank, which sits under the front seats instead of under the back, leaving room for rear seats that fold flat into the floor or flip up like cinema seats. Few cars this short carry as much.
