Honda City Car Reviews

Exterior: Many people disagree but Honda City offers a strong built car and much better than Toyota Corolla GLI. Toyota has been bulking up the new Corollas and this is one of the reasons it gets scratches and dents the most in our crowded traffic of Pakistan. The shape is more focused towards young guys with an aggressive look.

Exterior: Many people disagree but Honda City offers a strong built car and much better than Toyota Corolla GLI. Toyota has been bulking up the new Corollas and this is one of the reasons it gets scratches and dents the most in our crowded traffic of Pakistan. The shape is more focused towards young guys with an aggressive look.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Honda City offers a beastly interior. The elegant black interior and completely different shapes provides a very sleek and appealing interior. It's indeed not as much spacious as Corolla but at least it's new and awesome! While on the other hand, most of the Pakistan manufactured cars are offering the same interior since ages. Thank God Honda has thought of something new. The car is comfortable enough but not the best. Seriously, neglect this factor as there is much more and if you care so much about the comfort then get a soft pair of tiers and you can have pretty good comfort. The car has enough room to relax and stretch for five persons and put your goodies in the huge trunk. The most coolest feature in terms of capacity is they are now offering very good amount of space below the rare seats where you can put your small items i.e Laptops.

Fuel Economy: The best in Pakistan. No other Pakistan manufactured car could be a comparison. The reason is simple that Honda has not bulked up the car with unnecessary amount of weight. The car runs perfectly fine on Petrol and on CNG as well but make sure to get it done from someone good who knows what he is doing.

Ride Quality & Handling: Again, the best among the Pakistan manufactured cars. The engine is soundless, the handling is just perfect! The car is fully under your control at maximum speed and the ABS is your best friend.

Final Words: Let me explain. When you'll try to buy a City people are going to say "The spare parts are expensive". Let me tell you, they are not! The better item, the higher the cost. They are a bit expensive but they are affordable. Or better yet, just get your car insured.
Secondly, people are going to claim that Honda City has a low resale value. I'll agree but then again, the car has been underestimated. Anyone with a good brain would prefer Honda City over any other car that you'd get for the same amount.

Thank you Honda!

Exterior: The exterior is nicely designed though its not a strong built(local assembled are all tin ka taba)anyway the car is gives more of an aggressive look than any of its local contemporary's.I would rate its exterior 8/10

Interior: Its interior has not much to offer,cheap interior but the new titan interior looks decent.It's spacious but not as much if u compare it with its contemporary's i.e XLI,GLI.
This I-Vtec is comfortable in its own way,those who lost their youth might struggle a bit. 7/10

Ride Quality & Handling: Impressed with the throttle response this I-Vtech gives,there is no second thought to it that contemporary's eat its dust.It has a hard(Al-Mashhoor)suspension which brings both advantages and disadvantages to the car and becauase of that it disappoints a little on rural but drives like a boss on urban roads.It has an edge over its contemporary's in handling thanks to its hard suspension. 8.5/10

Fuel Econonmy : This I-Vtech is not just popular because of its hard suspension,It's fuel economy is what that makes it even famous throughout.

With A/C 12-13 km/l
Without A/C 14-15 km/l
Highway 16-20 km/l

The above mentioned figures may vary from person to person and totally depends on the way the car is driven.



Not many people take a drive-test before buying a vehicle in PK,so i would suggest everyone to atleast drive-test first that particular car your about to buy. less

Exterior: The styling is excellent and the car is very attractive. It's sleek and it's actually shaped like an arrow. Overall, the design and build is fantastic.

Interior: The interior is brilliant, especially if you opt for beige cloth instead of black. The quality of the upholstery and all the materials, even if they are plastic, is very good. The stereo system is also a good one for this price range.

Fuel Economy: Fuel economy is exceptional in this car, it achieves 11.4 km/l of mostly city driving with the A/C on all the time and being thrashed around. Because of the current CNG crisis, buying this will help preserve CNG reserves.

Ride Quality: The ride quality is very good, and it's not as hard as many people say, but it is harder than a Corolla. That might be a good thing because this feels better over bumps than my old GLi, that was too jumpy.

Performance & Handling: This being a Honda, lives up to expectations and the acceleration is amazing. Handling, too is brilliant, even at high speeds, like 130 km/h, it does not wave around or vibrate much. Acceleration is better than the Swift or GLi/XLi and it can easily take them in a drag race.

Final Words: Honda has outdone themselves with this car and this is an excellent buy for anyone thinking about it. This is better than the GLi/XLi or the Swift/Liana, and I can vouch for that having owned all of them. I would recommend going for the auto as the manual is jerky, but you should test drive it as you may feel differently.
Thank you.

Exterior: Elegant but extremely light weight. Front bumpers have no space for installing fog lights. No hood mounted brake light.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Good features but the cabin space is crampy. I am of average height and not obese but even then have difficulty sitting in due to low cabin ceiling. If you do not fold your neck, your head is bound to get hurt. I wonder if others have experienced this problem.

The seats are leather but highly uncomfortable

Fuel Economy: Excellent

Ride Quality & Handling: Handling is good but ride is of poorest quality due to hard suspension

Final Words: Not worth the money spent. I have wasted my 17,66000 rupees and would advise others to save theirs. Go for any other car. I shifted from Vitz to this crap and have regretted ever since.

Exterior: Its Aspire model, so its look good with company fitted Rims. I have taffeta white.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): In comparison with Gli 2013, City Aspire has more features like Navigation, Rear Camera, 4 speakers, leather seats, etc. It's trunk is bigger than Corolla's trunk. Corolla has bigger cabin but city is more comfortable.

Fuel Economy: No doubt City has better fuel economy currently it's giving me 12-13 km/l. As it's only 250km driven. New car eats more fuel , but with the time it's fuel economy wi... more

Fuel Economy: No doubt City has better fuel economy currently it's giving me 12-13 km/l. As it's only 250km driven. New car eats more fuel , but with the time it's fuel economy will increase.

Ride Quality & Handling: Ride quality is just acceptable. Handling is very good as it's suspension is very hard. Hard Suspension, i think it's a plus point for better handling but a negative point while driving on bumpy roads.

Final Words: This is a complete family car, only for Urban Areas.

Exterior:the exterior of Honda City i-vtec is very smart and better then Gli. but the car is very low bed thats why its difficult to pass from some speed breaks. Secondly the suspension is not that good.the exterior is great,strong and the aerodynamic shape of car gives a good perfomance on highway

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort):There are no such features. the car is good in comfort and space

Fuel Economy:almost 1 liter/13km

Well Corolla and City owners are just throwing bricks on each other. Both Corolla and Honda are good cars so please give honest reviews.

I own both GLi 2012 and Honda City Prosmatic (October 2012 model). So heres my experience about HONDA CITY.

Pros
1 - Very stylish looks.
2 - Fuel economy is excellent. My Prosmatic gives me 18 on Highways without AC provided I keep speed at 100 Km/Hr. Within city in lot of traffic its giving me 13-14 without AC. On the other hand Corolla Gli MANUAL due to its weight and bulk hardl... more

I own both GLi 2012 and Honda City Prosmatic (October 2012 model). So heres my experience about HONDA CITY.

Pros
1 - Very stylish looks.
2 - Fuel economy is excellent. My Prosmatic gives me 18 on Highways without AC provided I keep speed at 100 Km/Hr. Within city in lot of traffic its giving me 13-14 without AC. On the other hand Corolla Gli MANUAL due to its weight and bulk hardly gives me 12 within city and 14-15 on highways.
3 - Titanic interior now being offered is really stylish as compared to Corolla.
4 - Price is less as compared to Corolla. My prosmatic with company fitted Navigation/Multimedia cost me Rs 1,696,000 whereas Corolla Gli manual without any Multimedia/Navigation currently cost the same.
5 - Honda City is really quite while driving there is no engine sound at all. Its also really streamlined for effecient Airflow reducing air drag and noise. Corolla's engine on the other hand is not so quite.

Cons
1 - Seats are Hard and are not at all comfortable as compared to Corolla.
2 - Suspension is hard and seems much delicate than Corolla. Even in the first 1000 Kms I have realized that Honda City is not made for rough Roads. You have to take great care not to take it to bumpy roads. Corolla however, is made tough for any type of roads.
3 - Although more fuel effecient, engine seems to have less power as compared to Corolla 1.3.
4 - I have experienced minute knocking so I have to mix High octone as a remedy which solves the problem. Corolla's engine happily accepts any type of petrol without any knocking etc.

Conclusion:
If you travel alot on rough bumpy roads then Honda City is not the car for you. However, provided you stay on known/smooth/good routes than this car is probably the best possible option for you.
