Verdict
At RM70,242, the Honda Jazz costs RM2,442 more than the RM67,800 Wuling Bingo, yet it brings five seats, a 363-litre boot and 118 hp from its 1.5-litre petrol engine. The Bingo counters with a 31.9-kWh battery, 273 km claimed range, 7 kW AC and 50 kW DC charging, plus a much fuller safety kit including stability control and six airbags. Its 395-litre boot is larger too, but it seats only four. For an urban EV buyer with charging access, the Wuling is the better-equipped choice; the Jazz suits those needing the fifth seat and petrol convenience.
Pick the Honda Jazz if you need five seats, a 1.5-litre petrol powertrain and steering reach adjustment.
Pick the Wuling Bingo if you can charge an EV and want 273 km range, six airbags and stability control for less money.
