The 195 featured a distinctive low nose and highly sculpted sidepods, lending it a very smooth appearance.

It achieved Jordan's then best-ever result at the Canadian Grand Prix, when Barrichello and Irvine finished second and third respectively behind Jean Alesi's Ferrari.

Like other teams sponsored by Marlboro, the logo was replaced with either a barcode or chevron at Grands Prix where cigarette advertising was not allowed.

In 1996, WRC champion Colin McRae test drove the 195 in 196 livery at the Silverstone Circuit.
