toyota, either a Yaris/Ethios or aygo or one of its copies c1,108
essentially the Yaris and the ethios are the same car.

Really?

The Yaris is a well built, solid little car.

The Etios is a boring, ugly, cheap made in India box of rattles and creaks.

Honda Jazz is missing from the list and that takes the pick imo.

How can your poll be across segments like that? Of course the Focus will be more comfortable than the fiesta, same for Auris vs yaris vs aygo. Why not have the VW golf up there then either? Cause that is the VW equivalent to the Focus.

What poll is this?
A,B & C segment hatches are included.

Any C segment hatch "should" win this.

Agreed, wife still driving around her 2015 automatic, vtec.
Serviced and looked after. It's a nippy little car.

Not something I'd equate with comfort.

Polo (or Golf, if you can, considering the Focus). Otherwise Jazz.

Sandero. A decent Stepway.

but they the same platform, so should be the same minus some features.

Polo will always win any of these bang for buck, reliable and comfort battles. But you don't want it in SA for theft or high jacking.

Sure, in the same way a Vito panel van and a V250d are the "same minus sone features"

meaning the oily and mechanical bits are the same whatever the body and trim you pick,

Brakes, Chassis, Gearbox and everything you dont normally see.
all they add is better seats, and better dashboards and comfort features you DO see.
and sell you essentially the same thing just with a Nicer interior.

Your grouping is off.

B-Segment = Polo class & all.
C-Segment = Golf class & all.

You are missing the best B-Segment option out there man. The Mazda 2.

I can only assume you've driven the Yaris and concluded the Etios was similar.

The Etios maybe shares a platform with the 90s Yaris, but that's probably as close as it's going to get.

Most comfortable, the VW Golf.

Most practical, the Honda Jazz.

Yes, the Etios is a piece of ****.

It doesn’t work like that.

The Porsche Macan and Audi Q5 are also the same platform…

And they in turn share the same platform with their sedan counterparts too which also aren’t remotely the same.
