I read and discussed may comments about this car. But most of the people who commented badly are not because of the car, since they are not adjusted to the Honda City Environment.
I used M800, Santro, Ikon and Upgraded to City. I understand the feel of this car itself different from others.
Very much accepted that, Ground Clearance is less (infact very less, when fully loaded with 5 People). Pickup is low, known because lower bhp of 77bhp.
But who can drive in city traffic with high pickup where the movement is on bumper to bumper. When I driven the car in long, I can be consistant in 100-120. No problems.
Brakes are very , Good. Very light press required. So may of us need to get used to this.
Alpine audio is very good. When all the windows are up, You are left alone in the silent room. You can enjoy your drive with good music.
View of the road from the driver seat is very clear. You feel that you are in a cockpit.
I never got a mileage of 14.5 Km/lit. Consistent in city drive by any other car, including my M800. I am getting 14.5 Km/l in city drive with AC and 15-16 with out AC.
In Long drive I got 19Km/lit with AC on always.
Positives
Driving comfort
Handling on road traffic
Handling Short turns
Steering Smoothness
Seating comfort
Rear Leg space
Boot Space
AC Efficiency
Quite interior
Milage
Negatives
Ground Clearance, Head lights, A-Beam (Blocks the view, when you are taking right turn)
In General , This is a best car in that class, Worth of money spent.
Unless you do a drive in that car , noone can understand the Honda City’s Greatness.
