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.

    The 5th gen looks kickass, and is a full size sedan which can seat 5 and amazing boot space. Provides an incredible boot space too. In the sea of SUVs I would still prefer to sticking to the sedans and will not let them die. The high revvvving engine doesn’t make you miss out on turbo. This is a tried a tested under rated car that’s lived through the turbulences of the market. And to everyone who blames the clearance - let’s get you an upsized set of tires and argue about how much you enjoy body roll. To each their own, City needs to be driven to be experienced. I’m old school and it works great for me.

    Honda City Manual is smooth, refined, and still a joy to shift through gears. Cabin feels upscale, ride is balanced, and it handles daily drives without breaking a sweat.

    Definitely a Honda City VTEC. Best car in the segment and driven over 50k km . Have always been fond of that car. The pure na engine feels so good. It's not the fastest in today's day and age but the feeling that car gives is surreal

    Honda City that I purchased in 2022 December. This Silver colored City has served our family well and has done 90 K on the odometer. It is a flawless car with its own niggles like bad night light throw and low ground clearance but still its flawless engine and seating comfort is matchless.

    One car that really stands out always has been Honda city. It performs, it's ecoNomical, it's neat and ticks almost every thing. There are obviously high end vehicles which are way better. But my eYes go only where my pockets can go. Also I have always wanted accord in India. And my purchase was amaze because it was a city with 1.2 ltr engine and 5lakh lesser.

    Honda City is my favourite as it is reliable and also the 1.5Litre NA Ivtec engine is a gem. It is a combination of the performance and a complete package of a family car. It hold the legacy more than 25 years in the indian market which makes it to hold one of the most significant place in the indian automobile sector.
