The New Honda City will build on the strong foundation set by its predecessors and further enhance its value proposition by offering better performance and more features, in a super stylish design:
Safety and Advanced Features – All-around safety has always been at the core of Honda. That is why the New City gets Honda SENSING as standard across its entire model range. Honda SENSING uses a far-reaching detection system to help alert the driver and minimize the risk of accidents. The entire City lineup benefits from the latest breakthroughs in safety - aside from the Honda SENSING, it also comes with Vehicle Stability Assist, as well as front and side airbags in all variants. Thanks to all these features, one can be confident that the New City is a true five-star ASEAN NCAP-rated car.
Aside from boosting safety, the New City also gets more technologies that further enhance the driving and connectivity experience. It includes a new digital instrument cluster that allows for further personalization by the vehicle user. Meanwhile, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto boost the City’s connectivity through its enhanced 8-inch touchscreen audio*.
*Except for E CVT
Bold & Sporty Exterior Design – The New City presents a more stand-out look thanks to its bolder exterior enhancements. The sporty, new front grille gives the car greater road presence, while the new front and rear bumper design is an invitation for compliments. The new alloy wheel design further brings out the City’s sporty and elegant character.
Class-leading Power, Fuel Efficiency, and Overall Value – Powering the New City is the tried-and-tested 1.5L DOHC i-VTEC engine mated to a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). It remains to be the most powerful engine in its segment with a maximum output of 121 PS and 145 Nm of torque. With a powerful powertrain, the New City offers exceptional fuel efficiency and fun-to-drive performance. Maintenance is easy as the New City requires only twice-a-year periodic maintenance service for long-term reliability and top-notch performance.
Spaciousness – For young couples and families, the City makes the most of its size when it comes to cargo space and usability. Following the philosophy of Man Maximum, Machine Minimum, its spacious cargo capacity of 519L is the largest in its segment while the unique layout of the chassis allows for more occupant space in the cabin. Plus, the City’s elevated driving position allows for more space and a better view of the road ahead.
An additional variant joins the New City range in the form of the 1.5 E CVT Honda SENSING, making the driver-assist technologies more accessible for more customers to enjoy.
