Hi all, it's just a few days ago I bought my Honda Vezel type Z sport year March 2014 and the car is a second hand from Japan. All the text and voice are in the Japanese language and I was unable to set it in English despite checking some videos on youtube. After some researches, I found that the language is only in Japanese. I think I have to update the firmware and I request anyone to help me. thanks in advance.

You cannot change the language on OEM navigation system except for few models as seen on youtube videos.
There no firmware update for such sets, even if you find it it will be in Japanese.
Easier way is to get Chinese Android set from market

Jazakallah Khrayr,

But is it possible to buy a second-hand one with the English language from Pakistan as I am from Mauritius?
If yes will it communicate with the whole system?

Yes it will if you select one that comes with Vezel.

Like VXM-152 vfi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPtBp1N9Uy4

VXM-174 csi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opnI_hTMREg

Before buying test the system;
Press INFO button.
Select SETUP
Select OTHERS
Select LANGUAGE.

If you dont see the Language option, dont buy

My Vezel has VXM155VFEi and its language cannot be changed as well, still I am happy with it.

Thank you, brother Mohsin,
I had already watched these videos but mine is not the same.

Hello I have a 2018 vezel which is from domestic market in japan. Told that I CANNOT change the language to English.

Is there software or computer to buy so that instrument panel comes up in English?

If I got instrument panel from hrv from USA would that work in my Vezel?

Please give me advice as what I can do. Many thanks in advance

Hi, i own 2022 vezel and its infotainment is also in Japanese. Its an adroid based system so probably language files must exist somewhere into the code of this system. Its language could be changed, but i am unable to figure it out. If someone had any luck with it, please share. Thanks

Hi Farrukh,
I also own a Vezel 2021 and its infotainment is also in Japanese. Did you able to solve this language issue? I checked some videos in youtube for HrV similar infotainment but in the Vezel there is no Language menu sub settings in Settings->System

Please let me know if you could solve the issue

Thanks,
Girdar
