Spec check: 4 tasty trims of the Honda City

Last October, Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) brought in the latest edition of the popular Honda City with notable upgrades, including a new sporty variant. Being a reliable city car (as its nameplate suggests), the Honda City is loaded with various comfort and convenience features that will surely boost your confidence in every drive.

The all-new Honda City comes in four variants: the Honda City S MT, Honda City S CVT, Honda City V CVT, and the Honda City RS CVT. All variants come with same dimensions and engine type. The Honda City measures 4,553mm long, 1,748mm wide, and 1,467mm tall. It features a 2,600mm wheelbase. The Honda City can accommodate five persons and 519 liters of cargo.

Under the car’s hood is a Euro 4-compliant 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine that delivers a maximum power output of 121ps at 6,600rpm and a maximum torque of 145Nm at 4,300rpm. The engine of the S MT grade is mated to a six-speed manual transmission, while all the other variants get a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with AT Shiftlock. The City comes with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. When it comes to the brakes, the sedan is equipped with ventilated disc on the front, drum on the rear, and a handbrake for parking.

The Honda City uses an electric-assist rack and pinion steering gear type with electric power steering (EPS). All variants come with audio and hands-free telephone (HFT) controls on the steering wheel, while the S CVT, V CVT, and RS CVT are also equipped with a voice recognition button. Cruise control is exclusively available on the V CVT and RS CVT variants.

To guarantee a fuel-efficient trip, the Honda City features an eco-coaching ambient meter with econ button.

The Honda City has constantly proven its reliability and safety —  securing a five-star rating from ASEAN NCAP. This was made possible by the sedan’s G-Force control (G-CON) collision safety body technology which is designed to efficiently collect and disperse the collision energy to lessen the damage on the vehicle. Aside from this, the Honda City is also equipped with dual and side airbags to protect the driver and the front passenger. It has two adjustable three-point emergency locking retractor (ELR) seatbelts on the front and another three ELR seatbelts on the rear. The car also comes with additional safety technologies such as vehicle stability assist (VSA), hill start assist (HSA), anti-lock braking system (ABS), electronic brake-force distribution, emergency stop signal (ESS), and multi-view rear camera. To keep your little ones safe during your family trips, the Honda City is equipped with a child safety lock and an Isofix child seat anchor.

For better visibility, the Honda City RS CVT grade is equipped with full LED headlights with auto off timer (15 seconds after engine off), while the other trims come with halogen projector headlamps. All City variants are installed with LED daytime running lights, side turn signal lights, LED taillights, and LED high-mount stop lamp. The RS CVT variant comes with special LED fog lights with sports type garnish.

The V CVT and RS CVT variants are equipped with power folding and power adjustable door mirrors. Another notable exterior feature is the chrome front grille on the S MT, S CVT, and V CVT variants. Meanwhile, the top trim features an exclusive high gloss black front grille with RS emblem. The Honda City sports either 15-inch or 16-inch aluminum alloy wheels, depending on the variant. For a sportier exterior image, Honda offers an optional set of Modulo accessories for the City.

On the inside, the Honda City comes with a fabric or leather and suede seat upholstery. Its height-adjustable front seats are equipped with adjustable headrests and seatback pocket. The cockpit features an eight-inch touchscreen audio display with Bluetooth and USB ports. The cabin’s entertainment system can be linked to your smartphone through Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and WebLink so you can play your driving playlist on the road. All variants come with four speakers, while the RS CVT gets an additional four tweeters. To enhance the comfort inside the car, its air-conditioning system comes with rotary knobs, digital display, and illumination. The S MT and S CVT grades use a manual air-conditioning system, while the V CVT and RS CVT variants comes with an automatic air-con system with rear vents.

As the top variant, the Honda City RS CVT gets exclusive interior features including a sports pedal, a leather-trimmed front center armrest, a rear seat armrest, and a hand-wrapped interior trim with RS stitch.

The Honda City is available in six body colors: Ignite Red, Platinum White Pearl, Taffeta White, Modern Steel Metallic, Lunar Silver Metallic, and Crystal Black Pearl.
