Compared to the 3rd-gen, the new car runs the same length & width, is 10 mm taller and gets a wheelbase increment of 50 mm. Where the last 3 generations were completely different from the model they were replacing, the new City is merely an evolution. This conservative approach is similar to how Maruti handled the new Swift, and Toyota the Corolla Altis. The City nameplate enjoys tremendous brand equity in India. With the risky conditions of today, why fix something that isn’t broken? Honda has definitely become risk averse in recent times. They played it rather safe with the Amaze’ pricing too.
