Honda City Variants

The Honda City is not classified as a luxury car, but it offers a premium experience in the sedan segment. It features high-quality interiors, advanced technology, and comfortable amenities that provide a near-luxury feel at a more affordable price point.

The Honda City is priced in the mid-range for its segment, with prices ranging from Rs 12.08 lakh to Rs 16.35 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). While not the cheapest option, it offers good value considering its features, build quality and brand reputation.

The best Honda City model depends on individual needs and preferences. However, the VX variant is often considered a good balance of features and value. For those seeking maximum features and technology, the top-spec ZX trim or the City Hybrid variants are excellent choices.

There are four main variants of the Honda City: SV, V, VX, and ZX. Additionally, an Elegant edition based on the V variant and City Hybrid versions offered on the V and ZX trims, bringing the total to six distinct models.

The Honda City's main rivals in the sedan segment are the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, Skoda Slavia, Volkswagen Virtus, and Hyundai Verna. These cars compete in terms of features, performance, and pricing in the same market segment.

The current generation Honda City is offered with a petrol engine option. It features a 1.5-litre petrol engine producing 119 BHP and 145 Nm of torque, with either a 6-speed manual or a CVT transmission.

The Honda City offers a single-pane sunroof on select variants. Higher-end trims like the VX and ZX typically include this feature.

The Honda City can perform well in hilly areas due to its powerful 1.5-litre engine and responsive transmission options. Its balanced chassis and decent ground clearance also contribute to its incline capability, making it suitable for moderate hill driving.

The Honda City ranks high in safety with its comprehensive set of features. It offers four airbags (up to six airbags on higher trims) as standard across all variants, along with advanced safety technologies like ESC, TPMS, and ADAS features on higher trims, positioning it as one of the safer options in its segment.
