An aesthetic improvement over its predecessor, the 2018 Honda City boasts an improved fascia that is composed of a new chrome honeycomb grille, new LED Daytime Running Lights (DRLs), and brighter, wider fog lights for improved visibility in bad weather. The restyled rear bumper is complimented by new tail lamps and a more aggressive diffuser.
Following the ‘Man Maximum, Machine Minimum’ principle, the cabin of the 2018 Honda City welcomes the addition of the color Black and offers rear A/C ducts, extensive leg room for all occupants in the cabin, and an ergonomically designed center console. A few additional features include, a touch infotainment screen that mirrors the display of a smartphone when connected through an HDMI cable, Cruise Control, Bluetooth telephony, and push button ignition.

Powered by a 1.5-liter i-VTEC petrol engine, the 2018 City delivers 118 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque through a CVT transmission.

Factor in a tank size of 40 liters and the City is both economical and efficient.
