Honda City Review
The Honda City is undeniably a car that provides luxury like no other in the sedan segment. It has every quality a luxurious car should possess, be it a huge cabin space, an eye-grabbing factor, and practicality coupled with a premium feel.
Available in 1.5-litre petrol and diesel engines, the Honda City strikes the right balance between efficiency and driveability. The 2017 Honda City, the latest version of the car, is also a host to some features which were not present before such as LED exterior lighting, touchscreen infotainment, six airbags, and a sunroof.
The new City has also acquired a facelift, but it doesn't compromise on any other factors like comfort, spaciousness, and reliability. From the headlamps to the chrome grille, a lot of things on the outside have received a classy and sharp touch. The interior looks more distinct now that it has received upgrades like auto headlamps and adjustable rear headrests. The interior and the exterior design combine to give the Honda City a pleasing and mesmerizing appearance.
