Re: What is the difference between Pulse and Passion?

Think the op was asking what the difference in spec was and not how do you tell them apart

Yes read my post. I was explaining what you will get extra on a Passion (i.e. difference in spec?)

My 1998 Pulse had a silver trid

It was a bit of an anomaly though

Silver tridion was a chargable option on the pulse.
Equally you could have your passion with a black tridion as a non-charge option.

Thanks very much 137699. Your post was very useful. I am trying to find out if the Passions are actually worth more than Pulses. So knowing what equipment they both had as standard is very useful.
Thanks to all who have replied.

So basically - a smartfield - not a minefield

i did - thanks

my post was in response to ManM

DD - on my 03 pulse with silver trid, the order form/receipt showed nothing for the trid but it did show leather at zero cost. if the fortwo range is anything like the forfour range, the spec varies greatly on cars that should be the same

Used I can't imagine there would be any price difference between the two. One wasn't really better than the other, they were just different. One thing I haven't spotted is that the Pulse didn't come with softouch as standard (not on the early ones anyway) I certainly don't recommend the auto option for every day but it's nice to have for very slow traffic.

I only wanted softouch as the misses drives very rarely and if she 'doesn't have to do the gears' she may drive a smart Handy for the odd occasion when she can drive back from pub (she doesn't drink)
Other aesthetic difference is Pulse has black mirrors and Passion silver no matter what colour tridion! Unless they have been changed or painted.

Passions do seem to command a slightly higher price but only about 5%-10%. Also insurance is about 2% more on passion!

Very interesting comment. I use it virtually all the time (and have done so for the past 10 years!) - except when I get some petrol head thinking he can see me off the starting line - dream on baby, oh and at busy roundabouts.
