Toyota and Honda aren't as reliable as they used to be that said if I'm to pick between both cars I'd pick the Honda over the Toyota.

From a motor trend writer about the Insight - written in 2009 - “The Insight is the first Honda I've ever driven that feels unpolished. The hybrid powertrain switches on and off at stoplights with an unpleasant throb that's thoroughly unbecoming Honda's usual high standards for finesse. The engine revs coarsely. On the highway, the Insight hunts in its lane and rides over road imperfections like a manhole cover. The structure sounds tinny -- both via the amount of road noise entering the cabin and when you shut the doors. And the cabin is just tiny, particularly in the back seat. Though only marginally larger on the outside, the 2010 Prius delivers vastly more cabin and cargo spaciousness.” https://www.motortrend.com/news/hond...mparison-2544/ Quote:

Toyota’s infotainment is very dated. With the new 2019 Avalon Toyota has changed its infotainment to Entune 3.0. Its now top notch. It’s trickling down now to all new Toyota’s. Toyota knew it was bad and dated. They formed an entirely new division just to focus on infotainment.

if I wanted a car to go 200k miles, with minimal upkeep, it would be a Honda Accord by a mile (pun intended)

I went with an Audi A4 after 20 years of 2 Honda Accords. I realize it is a new car vs. 20 years ago for one of the cars, but the Audi plays in a higher league for driveability, solidity,luxury. I get it that Audi costs more to buy and maintain.

Not sure about new hondas but my Honda jazz a 2004 model with just under 177k on the clock. It’s a 1.4 petrol.
Everything electrical still works - sunroof, windows, mirrors etc Radio stopped working about 3 years ago & some minor rust appearing on one wing & boot which keeping down with a polish/ tcut solution. It’ll be a hard car to replace & always assumed i’d get another once the way comes |
