The Jazz/Fit had it as well but they discontinued it this year as they say people don't like it.
We have a CVT Jazz and the gearbox is the best automatic I have ever driven, smooth as silk, perfect match to engine, BUT it does have one drawback and it maybe why it was discontinued you cannot tell what speed you are doing by engine sound as the speed can vary markedly via the gear box with no engine noise/rev change. Takes a lot of adjusting to.
Having said all that I gave the Jazz to the wife and bought an 8 year old Daihatsu Sirion GTVi manual, much more entertaining to drive.
