Jazz 1.5 vs City 1.5

[roydok]

I plan to buy my wife a new car as replacement to her aging sentra. We are torn between the 2: Jazz 1.5 vs. City 1.5.
Which is better? Are the engines and transmission the same? Do they offer the same fuel economy readings?

Thanks.

there the same banana with a different skin.

there might be a difference between ride though, some are saying matagtag daw ang hatch compared sa sedan

regarding fuel economy, should be the same since pareho lang naman engine nila, might differ a bit because of weight? unless they weigh the same?

if you need space and compact na car, Jazz... pero if you want better ride and a sedan, eh di City

It could be possible for the sedan to have better aerodynamics. A hatchback's aerodynamics are compromised by the severe cutoff at the edge of the roof.

The separation of flow at the rear of the car on a sedan is much smoother, which helps with economy... though I doubt the difference will be significant.

Jazz - IMPORTED FROM THAILAND

City - MADE IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Let her choose which one she likes more. FC should be very similar between the 2. Test drive both and see which feels nicer.
Having said that I have been driving a City since 2009. I get around 13 km/l combined city and highway. This is according to the trip computer. I do A LOT of highway. Maybe 70 to 80% of my km travelled is on the highway.
