1996 was the year when HONDA introduced City to indian customers. From then it remains the most loved car from HONDA. It was loved by us and still in 2017 its the most recongnized one! In 2017 the Honda City has been revamed to match the rivals. Lets see how it stack against the competion.
Look & Style
This car is slight update of 2014 one. With some cosmetic upgrade. The front facia is itself unique designed by Honda. Now its even more unique and sporty. The crome grill is extended to the headlights whick looks more aggressive. Headlights get DRLs and led lights. The Cars tail light is extended with new design pattern look really cool. Body shape is slighty compact in compare to arch rival Ciaz. But wheels are 16 inch which has sporty accents.
Interior And Upholstry
Well this is an area where Honda has stepped up its game! Because previous model was getting aged. But now its an overwhelming affair.8 speaker setup with 8inch touch-screen infotainment with mirrring capabilty. 2 ports for charging. Luxourious WoodenSign and fit and Finish938844 is really top-notch! Seats are comfortable with rear Ac vents. Legroom and headroom is ample. The cars 3 spole sporty steering is also a welcome change. Overall really special.
Riding And Handling
This car is a legend itself and in this iteration it prove thats even firmly.No mechanical update but thats paid well with more refinment on engines. The petrol one produces 114hp@6600 rpm and 145nm@4600rpm while diesel produces 99hp@3600rpm and 200nm@1750rpm. The gearbox smooth of petrol but diesel has vibration in steering wheel at low speed. But gearbox is smooth most of the time. The car just flows its meant for luxury and comfort. If you want to rush with it will annoy you. Cars accelaration is linear and suspension is very good. It handles road bumps, potholes and undulation without a problem.Ride quality is biggest USP of this car.
Conclusion
This car screams two thing Luxury and comfort from inside but Sportyness from outside. Fuel economy is staggaring. This CITY is perfect to be driven in cities so look no further.So 2017 CITY is again proved its worth!
