This is the best car in its segment, though there're few peppy cars such as Verna & Slavia which are also good (it's engine longevity is questionable as they're very new cars) but still the ride comfort of City is unmatchable & remember, this car & it's engines are running since 25+ years so reliability of Honda petrol engines can't be questioned.
I own the Honda new city & it's no nonsense & most value for money car available in India so far now with all the required feel good & safety features (no gimmicks)also ASEAN NCAP given 5 stars to it so safety not compromised.
