Honda
City
Summary
The Honda City is highly regarded for its spacious and comfortable interior, smooth driving experience, and fuel efficiency. Users appreciate its elegant design and advanced features, making it a favored choice for families and commuters. However, some concerns include low ground clearance, which can cause scraping on speed bumps, and a dated interior design with limited under-thigh support in the rear seats. Overall, it remains a strong contender in the sedan segment, balancing practicality with a touch of luxury.

    Performance:-Its a great all rounder car as it has good balance between responsiveness and fuel economy it has decent low end,a lacky mid range(compared to 1.0 turbos nowadays) and a solid top end Comfort:- it is a solid sedan when it comes to comfort,but i cant say the same for the rear seats three full grown adults like you guys😭 can sit comfortably for the longer durations as the width of the car is low, however the seating position the driver seat,the front passenger seat is very very comfortable its 5 star Day to day:- as the car is ageing the car is becoming faster My car makes 0-100 around 10.5seconds(gps tested)

    The experience with the Honda City has been quite good till now and personally the vehicle’s design feels quite mature and classy, I own the Apex version of the vehicle and its premium, definitely worth the price.

    I got Honda City 2009 i vtec which still provides 12-15kmpl on highway. Have good driving experience, best seats and space. Ground clearance was a major issue, my car used to hit some speed breakers and some ramps. Build quality is just decent, better than suzuki but not good as german or tata

    Honda City Type right from the moment when i saw her for the 1st time, i just fell in love with the design. From then searching her online for her pics, mods details, reviews in Youtube. I am just dreaming that one day i will a Honda City in Silver Color with i-vtec in it. I still remember those days when i saw a review in youtube from a well know youtuber called Faisal khan , He was driving a 4th Gen Honda City ahh the amount of revs he was just doing was just insane, that's where i knew the proper RAW power on wheels that machine had plus the aggressive style of the cars with the low stance and dynamics with a sporty spoiler at the back would make her a proper Race Car for the owners. And still the legendary City is one of my favorites, which i still crave for each day the specially the Silver Color one ahhh i can't even imagine how it feels when i see her. I once was lucky enough to drive a 5th Gen top the spec variant that is the ZX trim and Oh My God it just blew of my mind. First things first the amount of comfort it offered was just crazzzzy, the seats cushioning just hugs the passengers which just gives a proper support to the passengers on board. Plus the Dasboard looks amazing.

    This car single handedly uplifted the social status of countless owners when it first came out (in India) in the 90s. Dare I say the gen 1 is still such a car to look at! This car brought so much to the table in the form of the incredible VTEC and then the iVTEC engines. Honda really forced other sleepy manufacturers to make something at par with the City, in a market that was warming up to cars that weren't from Maruti udyog. I have enjoyed ownership of 3 gens on the City.
