With a very simple to choose Prius C, HSD is much better then IMA. Prius C have EV mode which Honda don't have. You can cruise quietly in neighbor hood with EV mode. (won't wake up your wife/mom when you back home late tongue.gif )

doh.gif cruising quietly also has some cons, ppl complain in mall car parks,
when using HSD EV mode, pedestrians simply cannot hear your car coming, can cause accidents.

shakehead.gif Then probably Jazz is the best choice for you. I can sense you prefer Jazz hybrid, but due to Prius C have more pros that make you confuse. Probably at 100k you can even opt for fiesta, Peuguot, Madza which run on petrol & much more fun to drive & cheaper.

As I rather cruise in EV mode especially indoor or swapping car at home. Really waste of petrol when you just need to move & park your car.

I did consider all other RM100K cars available in msia right now, but it all boils down to the fact that hybrid cars currently enjoy lesser tax, so I believe I'm getting more "bang for my buck" by limiting my choice to these 2 hybrid models.

Right now 55:45 on PriusC/Jazz Hybrid hmm.gif

Again, I still don't know why ppl think Jazz looks nicer. I somehow prefer Prius C design:

Gaya kan! Or I guess that's just my preference laugh.gif

Thanks, but not for me, I want a smaller 2nd car. Don't want to consider sedans, only hatchbacks or sub compacts, not bigger than 1.5l
