2020 Honda City 1.5 S CVT - Details, specs, price

In its latest iteration, the Honda City wooed in a lot many customers that we could actually imagine. No wonder it has been one of Honda’s best selling cars not only here in the Philippines but in various other markets across the globe.

Honda City price in our country starts at Php 828,000 for its base 1.5E MT variant. Now, Honda has made owning the City even more feasible, doable, and affordable by launching a new 1.5 S CVT variant which costs Php 820,000.

Since the new City 1.5 S CVT is the most affordable variant across the board, it doesn’t mean it has been snatched off from some good features. Kudos to Honda for keeping the key specs, features, and elements of the City intact.

The overall design, shape, silhouette, and style of the 1.5 S CVT remain the same. Of course, it doesn’t get the premium features which the top-of-the-line 1.5 VX+ Navi gets, but thankfully, it also doesn’t get any fewer features than the base 1.5 E MT variant.
