I got a good deal on 10 months old Honda City Zx so decided
to pick it up with no prior plans. It was a very high budget car for me, when I
had no issues driving my Maruti Alto. I used to take it as a bad decision to
buy one.
No one can deny its Luxury, quality and comfort. But I want to share my
personal experience with the level of comfort with Honda city Zx.
4-5 days back I was planning for a visit from Bangalore to Solapur and few off the road
places from there. Due to unavailability of Train/Bus Tickets I(with my family
of 4) decided to make it a Car
Drive.
Including Driver we were 5 people in a car to cover 1500km in 3 days(54hrs) .
I had my parents(65/55years old) along with me and comfort was the important
factor for me here.
My overall experience in the drive was excellent. We took not more than 1-2
breaks on drive. Driving 120KM constantly for hours together was fun. Low
ground clearance created lots of trouble while dealing with bad road and
humps.
Honda should consider Humps and quality of roads in India while deciding the ground
clearance. of course I am not Automobile person to comment on it, but I can
suggest people to think twice before taking out their big cars on long journey.
I got 15km/hr overall mileage. Didn’t use AC for more than
50-100km. After coming back from 3 days of constant drive, we all didn’t even
feel tiredness.
After this drive I am 90% satisfied to be a Honda City
Owner. I am praying Dakshin/Whitefield people and Road construction authority to
make it 100%.
