Honda City User's Review 4.2
"I am super amazed by the performance of the CVT. The rubber-band effect has been minimised to quite an extent and the transmission can handle both, being driven in a sporty manner or for fuel efficiency. A very good jack of all trades, and the refinement of the petrol engine is the added cherry on top."
"Still the OG! I have bought all generations of the Honda City in its petrol avatar and the car continues to astound me with its high levels of refinement and driving pleasure. The manual is a must for any enthusiast and the way the VTEC kicks in during higher rpms is just a magical experience. "
"Once the only option in the segment, the Honda City now has many rivals. While it might not be as powerful as the competition, the Honda City still continues to deliver as a comfortable sedan with premium interiors. "
"The interior of the Honda City speaks volumes about the intent of the car. While it is a car that speaks to enthusiasts, the true pleasure of the City is in its premiumness. All the touch points inside the cabin deliver that experience, although I would take one star away for some hard plastics used in the cabin."
"I have the diesel manual and apart from the clatter of the diesel engine, the Honda City is a capable highway car. There is good stability at highway cruising speeds and the frugality of the diesel engine is just mind-boggling!"
"Amazed by the excellent performance of the CVT, which reduced the rubber-band effect. The transmission handles the sporty and fuel efficiency modes equally. The refinement in the petrol engine has shown wonderful performance. "
"Honda City continues its performance as a comfortable sedan with its premium interiors. Despite the arrival of rivals, it has continued its powerful efficiency and performance. "
"The car continues its legacy of high level in refinement and pleasure in driving. The manual mode is still ideal for driving enthusiasts, as the VTEC during the higher rpms feels magical. "
"The Honda City is a capable highway car except for the clatter from the diesel engine. It has good stability on highways, especially at cruise speed. The best feature is the frugality of the diesel engine. "
