2021 Honda City GM6 Dedicated Discussion, Owner/ Fan Club Thread

That 9th gen corolla has a suspension even better than 11th gen corolla or even a civic don't compare it to a city

[AABBDDuullaahh]

Saw this 2.725 millions price mentioned by someone else on social media(probably they used the same Mtmis source to make the claim), and now reading it here. I really hope Honda won't be crazy enough to price the 1.2cvt at this point, since the yaris 1.33L Gli cvt is 2.689mil ex factory.

But if they do make this blunder of a mistake, thinking their loyal fanboys will give them enough market to sustain, I sure do hope they get treated nicely by the real buyer.
I know of one booking for a 1.2cvt where the buyer intended to keep it. But hearing this crazy of a price he's made a decision, that if the car with Yaris Gli matching features crosses the 2.65mil mark he'll sell it right on delivery. And may even buy the uglier yaris, just to support the better pricing by Indus. There's a limit to the loot one can accept.
A 1200cc taxed vehicle and an outdated generation, HAS to be priced lower than the equivalent feature/spec Yaris.

Why lower? Honda is just a better brand

[engineerjibran]

if honda wants to price the 1.2 version at this price , they could have easily gone with the 1.3 engine.

or may be there are no new versions of 1.3 engines.

I don't know about the quality of shocks used but yes it's way too overdamped. My personal experience is that city's shocks are adequate in quality, because even after hitting many potholes and a fair-bit of driving on rural roads, I've never had to replace any suspension parts. But the real issue is not about hard or soft shocks, it is about the suspension design used in both city and gli. Macpherson strut front and torsion beam rear is not an ideal setup for handling or for comfort. You can get only one of these things but not both at once, and this is because these suspensions are built for only one thing, to cut cost.

Honda is just a better brand

You can claim Honda to be just as good a brand as Toyota. But better? Sorry

[AABBDDuullaahh]

Lol.
I hope that was sarcastic

[roboxx]

Stability aur handling ki baat to na karain. City is far more stable than corolla in handling & cornering at high speeds bcoz of stiff suspension.

[htb456]

Yes it is better, atleast engine and fuel economy wise. Honda = speed, sports and Toyota = comfort. Honda is faster, honda is expensive and honda is elegant. Honda is historically a racing company and largest engine manufacturer in the world. Their 2.0 litre 4 cylinder turbo engine eats toyota`s 3.5 litre v6es alive. Not to mention the Formula 1 where honda is the only japanese engine manufacturer and recently won monaco and azerbijan grand prix under red bull`s flag.

Name any, literally any toyota car or engine and I will tell equivalent lesser displacement engine honda that owns it. Now toyota cant even manufacture their own sports car engine. Their flagship supra uses engines from bmw. I can go on and on about how honda just owns toyota in every metric of car`s performance

[htb456]

Nope, facts

[an_average_car_user]

honda is expensive and honda is elegant.

This is subjective.

Yes it is better, atleast engine and fuel economy wise.

Oh man you cannot forgot Prius.

Yes it is better, atleast engine wise

Toyota engines do million miles and don't complain. Toyotas go to deserts, forests, north pole, south pole. For you speed maybe better, for others durability and reliability trump speed. Toyotas are built to last. Ever seen a honda pilot or partiot in any militray service? Land Cruisers and Hilux serve law enforcement all over the world. Toyota Hiace and Coaster move people around the world.

Honda has no car in full-size sedan class, no car in full-size SUV class.

Their 2.0 litre 4 cylinder turbo engine eats toyotas 3.5 litre v6es alive.

And 4 of those 2.0 have a combined life less than 1 3.5 v6. Match this

Just because you like Honda doesn't mean it is better.

Not to mention the Formula 1 where honda is the only japanese engine manufacturer and recently won monaco and azerbijan grand prix under red bull`s flag.

Toyota was also in F1 in the past, and they may re-join in future.

I can go on and on about how honda just owns toyota in every metric of car`s performance

Yes and has useful life 1/10th that of equivalent slow lumbering engine of Toyotas. Longevity is not a metric? Torque is not a metric? Off-road ability is not a metric (its not an engine metric strictly but engine plays a role).

It's all about what you need and what you like. If one company matches with what you like, it doesn't make it better. You cannot just ignore the requirements and preferences of millions of other people who need a different balance of longevity, reliability, torque, even fuel (diesel only in some areas and applications). Honda maybe better for you, it doesn't make it better for others.

A lot of people want a car that doesn't start complaining as soon as it leaves the pristine city roads.

Name any, literally any toyota car or engine and I will tell equivalent lesser displacement engine honda that owns it.

Please race that lesser displacement car with 1 or 2 million miles on the odometer. We'll see. We'll see even if it starts up.

If I want a car for myself, I'll want a Civic 1.5 Turbo or if possible, Civic Si (if I choose to ignore the BMW 4/6 series for some wierd reason), but if I want a car for family, I'll want a Toyota.

[htb456]

Oh man you cannot forgot Prius.

honda fit alone is enough for that

[sk_cooldayz]

These cars are not meant to be cornered at high speed. For a daily driven car, comfortable seats and suspension makes more sense then a 2 secs lead in 0-100 km. That few secs lead isn't going to be useful in city traffic. Its not going to win a trophy on a motorway. I hope new city is better at comfort factor

[sk_cooldayz]

Toyota cant build racing engines

Its a city thread with comparison with corolla and yaris. - don't make it a race track

[htb456]

Show me one law-enforcement service anywhere in the world that employs Hondas. One tough job, be it in the jungle/desert, adventure or expedition that use Honda vehicles.

if honda doesnt make vehicles for that specific need then how can this make toyota better?

[htb456]

I am not fanboying honda just mentioning facts If you dont want to believe then who cares?

[amalik6]

Both of you are fanboys. Let's finish the conversation here.

[htb456]

keep telling that to yourself

[htb456]

Honda is essentially engine manufacturing company, infact largest in the world. If they dont make tractors, atvs, transportation vehicles etc etc then how does that make toyota better then them in any metric of engine performance which was my original point to begin with?
