Perodua Myvi
|
Ever since its launch, the Honda Jazz has been the benchmark when it comes to flexibility of space levels in the cabin. The current generation has successfully managed to fill the shoes of its predecessors with the amazing number of configurations in which one can adjust the seating at both front and rear rows.
The famous Honda philosophy of ‘man maximum, machine minimum’ has worked wonders for Honda Jazz as well, as the Jazz offers the best amount of legroom and knee room in the category of premium hatchbacks. Not only this, but the Jazz also has great under-thigh support in its rear bench, making the rear passengers very comfortable every time.
Honda has got great mastery in making good petrol engines, and the 1.2-litre petrol engine which the Jazz has been blessed with offers good levels of refinement and smooth power delivery. The NVH levels are quite low, which make the in-cabin experience of Honda Jazz a much pleasant one.
Since the Perodua Myvi has been positioned as a premium hatchback for large families, the manufacturer has made sure that space is quite ample inside the car. The Myvi feels incredibly spacious for a car of this size and segment, with the rear seat in the cabin being as spacious as one would expect from that of an entry-level sedan. At the same time, the flexible seating configurations too prove quite helpful in carrying extra luggage.
Despite being powered by quite powerful 1.3-litre petrol and 1.5-litre petrol engines, the Myvi is very fuel efficient by segment standards. While the 1.3-litre petrol delivers 21.1kmpl, the 1.5-litre petrol is capable of returning a maximum fuel economy of 20.1kmpl, thus making the Perodua Myvi the most fuel-efficient premium hatchback in the market right now.
The current generation Honda Jazz has been in the market for a very long time, and despite the fact that the Jazz has a very extrovert and edgy design, it has begun to show its age.
Another aspect which needs a special mention is the amount of features the Honda Jazz is equipped with. Considering the fact that the competition has moved the game one level up by introducing many comfort and convenience features from one segment above, the Jazz feels a bit dated as it lacks many of the modern features.
While the Honda Jazz impresses you with its sweet power delivery and performance from the potent i-VTEC engine, the fuel efficiency is something which could have been a bit closer to the segment benchmark.
While the Perodua Myvi is positioned as a premium hatchback, the overall styling of the car doesn’t suggest so. The Myvi looks a bit bland by today’s high standards set by other cars in the same space, which makes it look quite dated and uninspiring as well.
While the Myvi is powered by decently powerful petrol engine options, the driveability of the car is not as engaging as one would expect it to be. The suspension and steering setup are too soft for one’s liking, which is quite playful in city traffic conditions, but then, they do not inspire much of confidence and thrill, especially for those enthusiasts who love driving.
