I have not.
2k rpm, its much quieter, at least compare to 2009 honda city which i used to have.

I usually can feel it when overtaking, where the car supposed to combine both engine and electric motor.

At lower speed, you probably know that you cant simply choose which engine/motor to run, thus sometimes the car keep switching between the two.

Dct lag is less noticeable during auto cruise.

I am torn between KIA Rio and Honda Jazz. maybe outta topic haha. But the Rio 2017 looking so damn nice. but the engine is awful. I am looking for fuel efficient car as i drive to work everyday with jam (yeah). The honda Jazz, undeniably is a good practical car with good fuel consumption. i am aiming for E and V spec. Whats the difference between these both? worth the 8k difference? I wanna get the V spec, but i wanna add modulo kit so that it will not look botak. also is it better if i buy E spec then spend bodykit + new sport rim? or just go with the botak V spec?

can you guys list me down what else the difference between e and v spec other than these below:

1) 16 inch dual tone,
2) signal indicator at side mirror
3) seat with half leather
4) arm rest? V got? e dont have?

Not too much. Prasys already list down. So i just add somemore.

Leather wrap steering wheel
Paddle shift (iinm e dont have those)

But i will go for V spec since got 6 airbags

i take the V spec. good deal i got. 3500 rebate. tinted free. free mugen kits

Wah so Jazz is 2nd car or change from Preve to Jazz?
oh ya, the pre fl for E only got 2 airbag right ?

A single person doesn't really need two cars
I think the roads are congested enough as it is   

For me, so far; my experience as a normal (read non-ricer) driver is the Jazz >> Preve (no matter what others say).
Yes, I agree, there are things that the Preve is better at (i.e. handling, high speed stability)

But what I wanted from my car is fuel economy, practical interior, reliability and good NVH
And the preve had none of these.

Worse still, my preve had engine issues (1 year old - occasionally can't start first try, must wait few minutes and then try again)
And then there was the other problems, all in 1 year - maybe I got a lemon
i) Disc brake judder (fixed)
ii) Slow power window after 1 year
iii) Electrical noise/odd sound from meter when start - like short (not there when new)
iv) Wind noise at 90 km/h
v) ESC light
vi) Seat internal spring came off
vii) Alignment that could never be perfectly corrected - I even tried the famous Ah Ching shop in Seremban, still pulls left

When I wanted to sell of my Preve, some use car dealers weren't even interested in it.
Heck, it's now been 5 months since I sold my car, it's still sitting at the dealer, unsold
Glad it's not my problem anymore 

Just my opinion, in case you're wondering why I downgraded segment

Hi all member

Wife planning to get jazz

Any salesperson recommend?can pm contact?

Area kl gombak

TQ

Yes you are correct, haha.

I havent touch the s mode since after the first week. For now, im trying to see how good to fc can go.

Perhaps, later I wont even bother to look at the fc panel.

Yes, the econ is a bad idea, it makes the car feels lethargic. I suppose you don't really need them when the car is already a hybrid.?.

Now I just drive it normally, the driving experience is wayy better. Plus the fc doesn't change much. Still managing 23km/l.

Congrats, what colour are you getting. Btw here is the snapshot of my last tank. Not bad i think.

Edit: How do I thumbnail these pictures...?

Just got the 2017 Jazz Hybrid Modern Steel Metallic, coming from a 2008 Myvi 1.3L Auto (9 y.o. rattle cage  ).

Only driven 40km,

Things I love:
Good Points #1: S-i-l-e-n-t.
Good Points #2: Braking is progressive as hell. Perfect slowdown -> stops transition very very easily done.
Good Points #3: Gear shift? What's that? You won't even feel it during acceleration.
Good Points #4: Below...

Opinion#1: NVH is good (coming from a 9 y.o. car). It's quite insulated. The wind noise + road noise VS speed is very jarring.
Cruising at 80-90 km/h is equivalent to old beater at 50km/h, which is scary. You don't feel the speed due to the insulation. Perhaps Mazda's concept of allowing road noise into cabin was a good idea...

Observation #1: Gear shift felt, not jerk, @ 40-50km/h during deceleration/coast
Observation #2: Hybrid rolls forward after a short delay (500-700ms) after lifting off brake pedal. Closest analogy would be Proton's clutch CVT I think? Let go brake, wait a short while, only car rolls forward.

Bad Experience #1: Stopped at apex of shopping complex bump (no incline), open door to take ticket (tint, can't wind down window yet), close door, release brake pedal. Car rolled backwards. WTF'd! Jammed brakes, then press accelerator.     

Critique #1: The accelerator pedal is extremely laaaazy. I'm depressing about 2 cm but it's not moving??? Need press down to ~5 cm only car will move. Same behaviour observed during test drive also 
Critique #2: Sound system is bloody awful for such a silent car. The old Myvi's stock front 4" dash mounted speakers has more presence.
Rear speakers booming like mad. Vocals are blurry as hell, can't make out anything aside the boom. Short time (10 minutes) in Jazz V-spec 6 speakers also similar thing. Blurry mess.

ICE part 
Here's some frequency measurement I took using a calibrated mic, UMIK-1. Processing done in REW.
Methodology:
Laptop Bluetooth frequency sweep and measure with UMIK-1. (It's digital, Bluetooth codec should reconstruct back to flat right...   )
Measure 7 different positions and angles at driver's seating position then Average the frequency response.
Head Unit settings are Bass +0, Treble +0, Sound Effect OFF (Sedan/Compact/SUV/OFF)
A/C was at speed 1. Might have been blowing at mic, I forget. Mic has a wind shield though.
All measurements taken while on EV mode of course 



Here's the result. 45dB noise floor / completely silent.


Here's a smoothed version.


Good Points #4: The sound treatment for this car is good stuff. Most frequencies decay after ~90ms.


Extra stuff:
Here's the Head Unit's Bass and Treble response. Black is the +0 Bass +0 Treble.

Bass -5 ... +5


Treble -5 ... +5

I can't agree more. The sound system is terrible. Coming from VW polo, I thought I have to get my ear checked.

Tbh, i really disappointed Honda cut off lot of things especially hybrid version. V spec actually got look of goodies than hybrid spec 

1- Why no paddle shift? its dual clutch transmission 

2- No folding mirror

3- No half leather half fabric that V spec got

4- The rims,        no offence but its ugly

I know the price thrown to 'hybrid' but...

I dont know the fabric but i can feel the foam inside is cheap, as if it wont last very long before its thinned out. What freebies/ discount did you get?

Not to be a spoil sport but actually Honda is ripping customers off on this hybrid as the tax exemption is high and the amount of given equipment is inadequate.

how to play spotify at the screen? i know it doesnt have apple carplay. but do we got other alternative?

but you wont be able to control next/backward song on the screen right?

When you wanna show me senpai
