Honda City is a mid size sedan that has been in production since 1981. It was initially designed for the Japanese market, but it quickly gained popularity in other parts of the world.
Honda City marked the brand’s entry into the Indian market in 1998 and it quickly became a success and one of the top-selling cars in its segment.
Over the years, the Honda City has undergone several design changes, with the most recent being the mid-2020 model. The car's current design features a sleek and sporty exterior, with a spacious and comfortable interior.
The Honda City facelift is expected to come with the 121hp, 1.5-litre petrol engine, mated to either a 6-speed manual or CVT automatic gearbox.
