Its clean lines and sophisticated styling ensure it stands out on the road without being overly aggressive. Beyond aesthetics, the City truly impresses with its smooth and efficient 1.5L i-VTEC petrol engine.

    We purchased our Honda City 5th Gen (Petrol Manual, Meteoroid Grey) on 1st January 2022, and it has truly been a delightful upgrade from our earlier cars of our family (Alto K10, Santro ZipDrive, Grand i10, and Dzire). One of the most memorable drives was a 1100 km round trip from my hometown Guwahati to the historical town of Sivasagar with my mother. Despite heavy rains on Day 1, the City handled beautifully—stable and confident even at 120–130 km/h on the highway. What made the journey even more special was my mother’s reaction—she said this was one of the most comfortable cars she had ever traveled in. The ride quality, space, and refinement made the trip effortless, and it reaffirmed why the Honda City is truly a timeless sedan. Sharing some pictures I clicked in Kaziranga.
