New HONDA CITY 1.5 S MT Review

Really improved from last honda city in driving comfort. Fuel economy & excellent exteriors. It really catches attention of everyone. You can't ignore the look if it from Sideways & Behind. Front arrowshot design could have been made better with steel looking grills (like civic).

Interiors: Not upto the mark. Sometime we may say it is the design - alright, we must appreciate innovative design of honda. But after buying I came across poor workmanship too. Many of the plastic parts started coming out from their location viz - A/C air duct cover, Gear lever cover started fallong down, plastic frames surrounding the front wind shield on outer side too started giving way. It apprears as wide temperature range of India didn't suit this new Honda City. These small things are now added with the roof top defect. Roof top from front has started to devlope some gap which is on the increasing trend. Lets see if they attend to it. More over as a buyer one must be careful if the new car is going to suit indian climatic condition or not. Or we must go for the Car model which is already in the market for atleast a year & above. Brand like Honda & the cost associated with it definately demands a certain benchmark quality. Customers like me who have purchased New Honda City (looking at its brand) just three months back are also taken by surprise after not getting proper interiors. My concern is still under discussion with Honda authorities. Hope next lot of the Honda city will come with better suited fixtures to suit indian climatetic condition.

Other Car in the same price band is Fiat Linea - An excellent car by review, one must check it. Else if you are ready to pay a bit more than - Honda Civic & Toyota Altis can be looked upon.

Fuel Economy with AC - 16 KM/Ltr on highway; Really very GoodInteriors - Not upto the mark, Too much plastic, NO CD player, Just an USB jack not acceptable
