Honda's City and Jazz: Fuel Consumption

**jicon7733** · November 16th, 2007 04:40 AM

ung 04 city vtec ko around usually 9-10km/liter although skul-bahay lang ako. mejo di pa ganun ka-fuel efficient kasi di ko pa napapachek/service ever since binili ko as a 2nd hand car last june 2007.

I get 10kpl sa 1.3 Jazz CVT ko. Pedal to the metal, hard core driving from pasig to makati.

If I was driving an Optra, siguro 4kpl lang ako.

i had my taste of numerous A/T cars/SUVs, most them hindi smooth sa arangkada at talagang ma aksaya sa gas. Saludo ako sa CVT, optimum gear & rpm for optimum fuel comsumption, be it hard driving or moderate.

Found out that this intelligent engine can even tune it's self, adjusting to the octane rating of the gasoline. (if you get one, attend the orientation, ask how to self tune the car "during driving").
I've fallen in love with the car, no need to further soup it up, the exterior is mabangis & the interior is just superb, All power & things are in the right place. I couldn't notice the car already left/arrived the garage -so smooth & quiet.
More Power to weight ratio beats, the sedan counterpart and with a VTEC CVT it's just soo tempting to floor it. CVT's are so smooth as if you could barely feel shifting gears, youre always at the right gear! be it slow driving, moderate or fast.
I dont need the trunk and if i even need to haul things I have ample space due to magic seats. I've even use these magic seats to flat bed where family members can sleep on long provincial driving.
Safety? the overall team-playing of suspension, all-dics brake, Anti Brake Locks & electronic brake force distribution...just makes my mind at ease, really makes wonders, keeping the car where it should be!!! (compare a nonABS car at high speed, simulate a need for full stop and you'll know what i mean, the difference could be your life and you investment).
Frontal collisions? never experienced it but you can search youtube * 180 kms/hr the cabin is still intact.
But then i seldom go outta town & with manila traffic, most of the time you'll just be cruising at 40-90 kms/hr. lubak lubak pa!
So on my next car, i'll go for 1.3L iDSI Jazz.

hello.
i dont know how to drive manual transmission
kaya automatic ang need ko. wala ako choice.

guys, im thinking of getting a 2nd car
requirement is really fuel efficient, fuel consumption klm to liter is high.

ano mas matipid sa fuel?

a) 1.3 or 1.5?

b) tapos City ba or Jazz?

ako, matipid naman tumapak, 80 normally mabilis na.

thanks ah guys.

The City and Jazz have almost exactly the same consumption. It's up to you which you find more convenient.

The 1.3 is more fuel efficient, the 1.5 is faster.
