Verdict
The RM2,442 gap is small: the RM67,800 Wuling Bingo brings a 31.9 kWh battery, 273 km EV range and RM20 annual road tax, against the Honda Jazz’s RM70,242 price, 5.6 L/100 km rating and RM90 road tax. For a Malaysian buyer with dependable charging, the Bingo’s six airbags, stability control and 395-litre boot make a strong case. But the Jazz carries five people rather than four, has 363 litres of luggage space and its rear ULTRA seats add more flexibility than the Bingo’s 50:50 bench.
Pick the Honda Jazz if you need five seats, telescopic steering adjustment and the versatility of ULTRA rear seats.
Pick the Wuling Bingo if home or workplace charging suits your routine and you want six airbags, stability control and a 273 km EV range for RM2,442 less.
