Honda City [2014-2017] User Reviews

Exterior Just ok.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The ineteiror lining on the roof is not adquate that transmits the sound heavily during simple rains of Chennai even. The inside RVM vibrates all the time, making it difficult to view the rear as you will see multiple images and get headache, the engine noise pad on the front bonner always hangs down from the engine area. cost cutting made no lining for interior boot cover.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 23kms per litre of diesel on highway at 80kmph.

Ride Quality & Handling Average to good.

Final Words Look for opitons before buying any honda car or scooter.

Areas of improvement Improvement is not only needed for the car quality,  but also for the coporate philosophy to treat Indian customers at par with international consumeres and not to beat us hands down with cheap U.P local  components, poor tyres which fail even before 25000kms, worst service quality and the team is not at all good for service support.

Exterior

 Good Look

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Interiors in SV give a feeling of cheap plastic when compared with Skoda and Verna in similar range. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Gearbox is too hard. Bluetooth mic doesn't work and showroom says you need to speak at the top of your voice for the other person to hear your voice. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Pick up is not as good. For example,  If the speed reduces to 40KMPH in traffic and you are running in 5th or even 4thgear, car will not pickup until you bring down the gear to 3rd. I did not realise it in test drive and pickup seem OK but realised it while driving in daily traffic conditions.

Final Words

I have bought the SV model just 20 days back and realised these issue. Mainly the bluetooth mic located in the stereo body due to which your voice is not clear and too low for the hearing party.  When i spoke with dealer i got to know that the test drive was given in V, where the mic is in roof. The dealer changed the stereo twice and now its been changed by the sterio vendor but problem remains the same. Its a basic feature which doesn't work and Honda doesn't take responsibility of improper information and poor qaulity even when multiple issue have been raised since 2014.

comes with advanced features including an automatic air conditioner unit with touchscreen control panel, cruise control system, electrically foldable and adjustable external wing mirrors.

onda has played it safe and probably didn’t want to take a risk with another extreme design in today’s tough market. It’s clear then that the company has focussed on pleasing the masses rather than sticking to the petrol-headedness that enthusiasts love it fo

sixteen years and three generations later, Honda has finally given in to the country’s demand for a diesel engine. It’s also packed this latest iteration with a tonne of features – something we Indians love. The diesel City may have missed the sweet spot when it comes to timing, but it definitely beats not turning up at all. So how good is the new ‘consumer-oriented’ City? We thoroughly tested both, the petrol and the diesel manuals, to see if it sets new benchmarks yet again.
