Get the Jazz in your case... The Montero and Tucson is not as cheap to maintain kasi diesel sila and their gas mileage is not as good given that they have bigger engines and given your low mileage the sub compact class is perfect. Cheap maintenance, perfect for city driving go JAZZ...

If you can afford it, Hyundai Tucson diesel variant. I would pick the Montero Sport for it's flexibility and durability compared to the two but you don't need the space so get the Tucson diesel.

The Monty Sport is the best all arounder. And at 8.4++ km/L in city driving (actual computation, not based on the RV meter), it isn't bad. It gets 10-11km/L on the highway. My current ride gets 6km/L in the city.

It's tougher than the Jazz, rides better, and carries more.

The Jazz is more fun and easier to maneuver but I learned to drive in a 12 seater van so the Montero's size is a non-issue.

Just see what your needs and wants are. None of your choices are bad vehicles in the first place.

Pero katakot takot naman maintenance ng Montero Sport... Reading those Strada PMS threads scare the hell out of me. 8-9 liters of OIL my gawd! A Jazz would only need 4 and if fully synthetic pwede palitan mga 10K sa diesel no way you would not change it every 5K...

Yup. It's normal for a rig of its type. My current rig uses 8.4L of oil also. Big engines designed for heavy duty use, require a lot of oil and more frequent changes so the oil doesn't get saturated with contaminants. My only gripe with Mitsu is they use synthetic unless you tell them not to.

The Jazz actually calls for a 15k service interval? At least that's what the maintenance guy wrote on the windshield reminder. Will check again.

Yep the Monty calls for a 5k service interval.

Toughness and versatility does have its price.

Off warranty and when service is not done at the dealer, the cost is easier to absorb. Just like on my Nissan.

The Jazz requires less oil but when I'm driving it, I keep forgetting that I have to brake for potholes. :D And I need to start praying when it's parked at the hospital and the rain hasn't stopped for the past hour. Not a problem with an SUV. Rescue and emergency gear also seems to fit better in an SUV.

I've driven a Jazz on long trips (2007 model 1.5 engine with a/t). It can manage. In terms of response, its more responsive than a Nissan Patrol diesel on the open road. And the engine makes a nice sound. hehehe.

Anyway, the Jazz is designed to carry 5 passengers PLUS their luggage so your load won't be a problem.

Yeah but does he need that toughness in daily city driving and while driving alone I might add as he has posted in his 1st post? Not the way I read it... Get the Jazz thread starter, no need to bring extra traffic in the road if you drive alone most of the time...
