my cousin has an axia MT that this bezza are based on and I have the iriz MT.
I don't think you would be very happy.
iriz is tune for fun but proton reputation and conti parts means it is expensive and probably aren't long lasting.
but you're get a stiff chassis as its high tenstile steel that is seven time? stiffer
while axia steering is heavy while slow, Honda CR-Z have a steering that light at slow but provides almost no feedback, in Kia eps you have to push buttons to choose the heaviness of comfy or sports. the ZF source EPS in iriz is none of that.
the axia would not move by just releasing the clutch. infact the clutch doesn't communicate at all. it's either open or close and no in between.
Based on carlist they said " the Bezza’s manual transmission is enhanced with double synchromeshes for all ratios." So this should be some improvement over the Axia one, plus for 1.3 Variant I believe they will use different set of gearbox with different Ratio like how Myvi 1.0 vs Myvi 1.3
Iriz I never tried before so I couldn't give any comment on this
Even the new Persona or Saga released, I would still think twice to get them due to
1. Their engine will be refreshed another year + -
2. Once new engine launched, RV will drop dead for those with old engine unless price differ is obvious.
So I'm plotting to get this Bezza as replacement and I need a Sedan cause I already have Hatch
So when new Persona or saga released with new engine, I would just sell off this Bezza which still have good RV on it and get them (If they are good enough to convince me to change)
