Choosing between these two depends on whether you prioritise driving fun or cabin space. On twisty roads, the Toyota Yaris is more fun than the Honda Jazz, which is not particularly exciting to drive. Where the Jazz pulls ahead is practicality: it gives you more room for tall passengers in the back, where adults in the Yaris will find themselves cramped and short of legroom and headroom. The Jazz also provides a bigger boot, can carry more with the back seats folded, and can tow a heavier load. Both cars keep things user-friendly up front with separate buttons and dials for the climate control, and both include adaptive cruise control as standard across their ranges to help on long journeys.
