Comes under the heading of "what were they thinking" IMHO. They cost nearly as much as a Civic, they have more weight and the same power as a Jazz, and a less flexible interior. the only things they really have going for them are styling and rear leg room (they have a longer wheelbase).

Nah, I think I'll stick with the hatch. It's practically a station wagon compared with other small hatches anyway (eg Hyundai Getz, Suzuki Swift or Holden Barina/Chevy Aveo/Daewoo Kaleos)
Over here the GM1/2 Cities overlap and straddle the (very small) pricing gap between the GE6/8 Jazzes and FD1 Civics.

Personally I liked the ride quality of the GM1 City much better than the equivalent GE6 Jazz. Both of them have the same 1.3L L13A i-VTEC mill and basic chassis, but the City's ride is noticeably plusher, behaving as if it was a much bigger car while still retaining the GE's darty nature.

That's just me though. If the City were priced in a silly manner the GE Fit/Jazz would get my vote too
