Honda to Finally Bring 5th gen City Replacement https://carspiritpk.com/honda-to-bring-5th-gen-city-replacement/

Not the most reliable source but it's true that 5th generation bookings are closing. All credit goes to Yaris forcing Altas to retire the 5th gen after terrible sales.

Nothing new in this news. This thread started more than a year ago about the REPLACEMENT City.

Everyone in Pakistan knows that REPLACEMENT is coming . But what is coming is a mystery.

[fazalwahab11375]

That TERRIBLE sales still have more than 3 months of delivery time.. lol

[ammanh137]

I dont know at what should I be mad at now that we had to bear the 5th gen for 12 years or that there are shezadeys still buying it near it's end

[pwuser158915138637]

@fazalwahab11375
Thats because they are slowing down the production of 5th gen to introduce New model ?

[pwuser158915138637]

Honda Pakistan is expected to launch the 7th Generation of HONDA CITY in Pakistan by JULY 2021.

5TH GEN COMPLETES 12 YEARS OF PRODUCTION

---

Honda City 5th gen has been in the production lines for the past 12 years since 2009 with some minor facelift changes. The company kept on selling the same gen model for this long as there was no certain competition in the local market of Pakistan.

---

RISING COMPETITION MAKING LIFE TOUGH FOR CITY

---

However, Toyota Yaris made a very strong in the country last year as a competitor of City. According to the sales stats of PAMA, Toyota is selling more units of Yaris than combined sales stats of City/Civic. This situation has raised serious concerns for the auto manufacturer.

On top of that, the launch of Changan ALSVIN and Proton SAGA is now expected to turn tables in the compact sedan segment primarily due to their offered features under competitive prices. This situation has now left Honda Pakistan with no choice but to introduce the new model of City in the country.

PRICING OF NEW HONDA CITY?

---

It will be interesting to see the pricing of the new model of Honda City as it would be key aspect in determining its success in an extremely competitive market. Currently, the base variant of City costs PKR 2.45 Million (ex-factory) and goes all the way up to PKR 2.86 Million for the top-variant.

What do you think would be the pricing strategy of Honda Pakistan?

[fazalwahab11375]

It has always been like that.

[fazalwahab11375]

All these pages take source of information from Pakwheels and Sunil bhai weekly video to be specific and I think, the 7th generation is still very doubtful .. I hope it comes

[pwuser158915138637]

@fazalwahab11375
And what is the Timeline of launching according to your information After All you are the Guro of Automobile industry

[fazalwahab11375]

Sir no guru shuru.. I am a typical auto sector follower like anyone else.

What I know is that the replacement City is planned for July/ August. There were also reports at some point that NO City at all this year. Again it was a rumor.

Lastly, 7th generation is possible but a competitive pricing is not possible. Maybe possible BUT with a strip down version. Even the 6th generation will be expensive than the 5th we have and in every other trim level.

Atlas want to hit both the 1.3L and 1.5L segment and both those versions are available in GM6. As I always mention, GM6 sedan is still very relevant as it's still in production outside Pakistan and in the country where both 6th and 7th are sold side by side.

Yes with 7th , there is 1L Turbo BUT Honda will not take a chance because of the past issues . They can tune it for local fuel but they will always be buyer skeptical about it.

Let's see and wait, what direction Atlas is going.

[favadkhan]

Only one correction Honda has always taken a chance with new Engines and RONs e.g Current generation City when launched have several issues of knocking (people forget that) but after 1 year they upgraded the software to adjust for Pakistani fuel ,Similarly Civic current generation ,So 1.0 liter turbo is not some thing they can avoid bcas of this .If Honda has to remain relevant 7th generation is a must and for competitiveness 5th generation as low end .My 2 cents as 6th and 5th have not much difference

[pwuser159259702854]

Really? That might probably mean next gen is coming very soon but at least this time we are finally getting an airbag in 5th gen if it is true

[pwuser159259702854]

To be very honest I still think 6th gen is coming and it will definitely sell as it is at least something new the reason I think so is because it has many similarities with current city and also has many components that it shares with brv so it will be much cheaper to produce then the 7th gen
Just being realistic although 7th gen is quite a looker and I personally want 7th gen to come

[automakerz]

7th is Coming - just around the corner to be launched.
