Yeah get the Jazz. Even if your Ecosport is manual madami din syang issues beyond the DCT (the major one)...
pansin ko lately na kakaunti yung nakikita kong brand new na Fiesta (yung wala pang plaka) maybe due to sales ng EcoSport.
The Fiesta is more sportier and quite frankly accelerates better than the Ecosport. Mas bagay sya for singles na wala pang pamilya... I would avoid both and the Focus hahahahaha. So many issues!
My Fiesta Ecoboost has been a good daily car for the last 3 years and I still love driving it. My wife drives it also when we need to bring two vehicles. It drives better than my other quicker/faster vehicle. It's a good car for a family of 3 to 4 people; it is just too cramped to have 3 people on the rear seats. I dread the thought of encountering issues with as it gave me no problems since.
My friend drives the Focus Ecoboost. The new 6-speed AT tranny seems to be working well compared to the clanky DCT of the previous generation. The only issue he has with it is the fuel consumption which is more like 6-7 km/L on city routes.
It's a gamble though for other local buyers on choosing a Ford. Most buyers don't want to be in that situation wondering they may face issues with the car later on.
I got paranoid reading all those issues online about DCT. Hinataw ko na ug ecosport para magkaalaman na. So far I have only experienced the jerking which I believe is normal with dry clutch vehicles. Lately I installed an android HU as I find the panel ugly.

DCT feels more at home on the highway or when driven in high gears. The clanky nature is most felt on low gears, specially to those adjusting to DCT from common AT or CVT. To those just new with DCT, try modulating gas input like when driving an MT tranny and it will be much better.
I'm ok with the menu on my Fiesta - less graphics, less distraction. I do wish Ford will put a turbo timer or a turbo pressure gauge monitor for the future Fiesta/Focus/Ecosport models with Ecoboost engines.
With the Fiesta Ecoboost, I have observed that the power delivery is more linear when the tranny is set in "D". When set at "S", the revs go higher quicker but it gets clankier in low gears. "S" mode is better on the highway when you want the revs to go high and let the car loose at triple digits speeds (above 150 kmh).
In the comparison between both the segment, if you are seeking
- Absolute Convenience of Drive including Self Driven or Family Member with slight Short Height
- Easily Manoeuvrable with Impressive Steering Dynamics
- Good Build Quality, Reliability, Features
- Des
cent Mileage Output of almost 14 Kmpl in City to around 16+ on highway
Would recommend to choose in Honda Jazz
