It was sold in the United Kingdom from 2000 until 2001. It was a platform mate to the Honda Capa and replaced the Series GA1 and GA2 Honda City. The Logo was larger than the "kei" sized Honda Life, but was smaller than the subcompact Honda Civic. The Logo was eventually replaced by the Honda Fit on an all-new Global Car Platform introduced by Honda. It was sold in Japan at "Honda Clio", while the Capa was sold at "Honda Primo". The Honda HR-V was sold at "Honda Verno".
