The Honda City — Still the smartest sedan buy in 2025?

While the world runs after SUVs, the Honda City holds its ground as a practical, premium, and honest car for those who value real substance. Here’s why it still deserves your attention in 2025.

Timeless design that ages gracefully

While rivals chase gimmicks, the City’s elegant proportions and sharp lines continue to look premium even years after launch. It’s a car that won't feel outdated in your parking lot anytime soon.

Smooth and reliable i-VTEC motor

The 1.5L i-VTEC engine is an absolute gem — refined, eager, and incredibly reliable. If you love naturally aspirated petrol engines, this is one of the few true last-standing champions.

Unmatched ride and handling balance

Neither too soft nor too stiff — the City hits that sweet spot. It glides over broken roads yet feels confident at highway speeds, something newer rivals still struggle to match.

Spaciousness that embarrasses SUVs

In typical Honda fashion, the City’s cabin feels huge for its size. Rear seat space is great, and comfort levels shame many pseudo-SUVs at the same price point.

Feature-rich without feeling gimmicky

Digital displays, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, connected car tech, sunroof — the City gets everything you need, without bloating you with tech you’ll never use. Furthermore, the latest model brings six airbags and ADAS (in top variants) — giving buyers real peace of mind, not just marketing checklists.
