Cons
1.Small Space 2.Not That Practical 3.Lack of Safety Features

Space

If you are a single lady this car suits you very well. But, with one kid, a stroller, a baby carrier, and a bag full of groceries? Things just escalated to a very unpractical car very quickly.  

Power

The 1.6MPI engine will get you to the above national speed limit with ease and will keep climbing up.

Ride & Handling

Despite its size, the car handles very well and feel planted around the bends. The suspension is better than the Proton Iriz, and the steering feedback is excellent, you would be able to feel the road bumps and the steering feels perfectly weighted.  

Fuel Economy

You would definitely get better fuel mileage with the Honda Jazz comparing to our Polo. I find this 6-speed torque converter from Aisin is tuned to be more fuel-saving; hence, it will shift up quite early and that annoys me a little bit.

Comfort

Due to its size the rear passengers will not be complaining about the air conditioning because the current setup is more than sufficient. 

Interior

The stock head unit only comes with CD, Bluetooth, and iPod connectivity, it might be ok in the time we bought this car, but now, having driven a few Apple Carplay equipped cars lately made me want to throw this ancient head unit and installed a newer one with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto features.
