Exterior A very stylish looking car. Not much change in the front but exterior looks are too good. BMW like tailights, creases along the body give it a contemporary look.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The new city scores really well in this department. Ample space in the front and rear. Leather seats make things comfortable. Powerful AC and rear Ac vents cool cabin very easily. Only seat height seemed to be the issue. If seat cushion is high, your head might touch the roof, with seat down visibility isn't all that great.
Features are segment leading. Touch AC, infotainment screen, rear camera, sunroof, bluetooth telephony, rear AC vents, keyless entry. The list goes on and on. The top end is really well equipped and features are more than an even an Altis.
All these features really go a long way in delivering immense satisfaction.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is the most powerful in class. Acceleration is terrific and overtaking is a breeze. Early to comment on fuel economy but driven sedately, it can easily give 12-13KMPL and 16 on highways. Petrol prices going down helps keep costs in check.
Gearbox is precise.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride is decent. Stability is good. The city cleared some big speedbreaker tests where even my brio tends to hit.
The one correction honda never made with the car is to upgrade the tyres. 175 section MRF tyres dont add to grip. Otherwise the car would have been quite an enthusiast's car. The tyre noise is also quite audible at speed.
Final Words The city is a terrific car to own. It has the looks and features and I would prefer this to even a D segment car like Altis/Elantra. For a budget of 10-11L, you just cant go wrong with this car.
