March 16, 2017: The 2017 Honda City facelift has been launched in India at a price of Rs 8.50 lakh (ex-showroom, New Delhi). It comes in five variants, namely, S, SV, V, VX and ZX (the diesel powertrain is not available in the base S trim). According to Honda, 40 per cent of bookings for the City facelift are for the top-end ZX variant. The updated City gets LED head and tail lamps, daytime running LEDs, 16-inch alloy wheels, an updated infotainment system with MirrorLink connectivity, and a total of six airbags. Mechanically, the City remains unaltered and will carry forward the current set of powertrains – 1.5-litre petrol engine (119PS/145Nm), mated to a five-speed manual or a CVT automatic gearbox and a 1.5-litre diesel engine (100PS/200Nm) mated to a six-speed manual transmission. If you are looking to get the Honda City with an automatic gearbox, it is only available with the 1.5-litre petrol i-VTEC engine and in the V, VX and ZX variants. Interestingly, fuel economy figures of the City have dropped marginallly from 17.8kmpl to 17.4kmpl for the petrol manual and from 26kmpl to 25.6kmpl in the diesel manual. The Honda City 2017 will rival the likes of the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, Volkswagen Vento, Skoda Rapid and the Hyundai Verna along with others.

The model has established itself as one of the most sought after cars in the country, with four generations being offered since 1998.
The City name is a sub-brand in itself and it gets a big list of features, efficient engines and Honda’s brand value. It has just received a facelift that adds some more value to the package. Is it a proposition worth considering? Time to find out.
First-in-segment full LED headlights.
7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation, Wi-Fi and MirrorLink.
6 airbags offered on the top-end ZX variant.
Even with the facelift, the City retains its core strengths. It’s still the same comfortable, reliable, spacious and easy to own car as before, but what Honda aimed to do is fill in a few holes in the package. Has it done that? Yes, whether it’s a matter of safety or adding some desirable features so the City can cater to modern buyer demands, Honda has almost perfected the City’s positioning as a great all-rounder.
"It’s still the same comfortable, reliable, spacious and easy to own car as before."
The changes are enough to make sure the City’s status as segment leader continues for now and it can look its rivals straight in the eye. But is it significantly better than its rivals? Not quite.
The roots of the Honda City in India go way back to 1998 which marked Honda’s entry into the mid-size sedan segment.
