Honda Cars India Ltd (HCIL) has just launched the fifth generation of the City, its most popular product till date. The 2020 new Honda City comes across as a substantial upgrade from the earlier model in every respect. This post, here, tells you in detail about various updates of the new model, including the price, mileage, specifications, colours and images.
The 2020 new Honda City has just been launched. The new model has gone on sale in three variants – V, VX and ZX. The three variants will be offered on all three powertrain configurations – petrol-manual, petrol-automatic and diesel-manual. Prices of the new model start at INR 10.9 lakh (ex-showroom) and go all the way to INR 14.65 lakh (ex-showroom). At this price, the new City is as affordable as the earlier model, which is something that should work in its favour. Anyway, here’s a look at the full price list-
