Honda has been proving its mettle since a long time with some of the
classic cars from its portfolio. One such classic winner has been the
City sedan. This one car has helped Honda cement its position firmly in
the Indian auto industry while being the most loved sedan among the
customers. Along with the City sedan, one name that has been the talk
of the town is Honda Amaze, the compact sedan which was launched two
years back. Recently, both these sedans have won prestigious ‘CarDekho
Accolade’, India’s one and only consumer choice awards. Honda Amaze won
the title ‘entry level sedan of the year’ while City grabbed the same
award in mid-sized sedan category.
The unique positioning of City in the Indian auto market was
described by Mr. Jnaneshwar Sen, Senior Vice President Marketing and
Sales, Honda Cars India, as being the backbone of the brand even after
so many years. He further added that the brand has been synonymous with
City in the country and the car holds an iconic status in the
industry. The current 4th generation of the car has been successful in
maintaining its number one slot in the segment since its launch.
Moreover, it is quite evident that the brand equity of the City is
unquestionable and the car continues to be an aspiration for all
generations alike.
The car which is already in its 4th
generation is still running strong in the Indian auto market. In fact,
it has been the first choice in cars for many generations alike. With
Honda starting its new facility in Tapukara unit, the waiting time of
the most loved sedan has come down considerably. The City is available
in both petrol and diesel variants and with revamped sporty styling,
advanced equipment list, enhanced fuel efficiency and premium comfort
levels. This enables the sedan to lock horns with Maruti Suzuki Ciaz,
Ford Fiesta, Skoda Rapid, Hyundai Fluidic Verna, Nissan Sunny as well
as Volkswagen Vento in the mid-sized sedan segment.

All
New City to be launched with Diesel and Petrol
Starts
pre-launch bookings for January 2014 launch
Honda Cars India Ltd. (HCIL), leading
manufacturer of premium cars in India, today unveiled the all-new 4th
Generation Honda City at a World Premiere event in India. The world’s first
glimpse of the car also marked the introduction of 1.5L i-DTEC diesel engine in
the all-new City. Scheduled to be launched in January 2014, the pre-launch
bookings of the model have begun across the country.
The all-new Honda City has been developed at
Honda R&D centre located in Tochigi, Japan following extensive market
surveys in India, ASEAN countries and other markets for people’s driving needs
and lifestyles. The development of all-new Honda City adopts Honda’s new
‘global operation reform’ of concurrent development and implementation of
locally optimized design drawings to realize the best vehicle specifications
with speed, affordability and low CO2 emissions for our customers.
India, being a key strategic market for Honda
in the Asia and Oceania region, has been specifically chosen to lead the global
production for the All New Honda City with the 1.5L i-DTEC diesel engine which
is already gaining popularity in the country. This makes India the first
country to manufacture and sell the All New City, which will eventually be sold
in 60 markets to help expand Honda’s footprint in some of the fastest growing
auto markets in the world.
The grand
conceptfor the all-new City is No 1 mid-size sedan
impressing the whole world by being an Advanced
Cool Stunner. "Stunner" is at the core of this
concept and reflects sophistication and vigor while in motion and a striking
presence when standing still.
The development
concept focused on three aspects: Advanced Sporty Design, Best Comfort
and Best Fuel Efficiency.
Advanced Sporty Design
The All New Honda City expresses Honda’s new
design concept "Exciting
H Design" and will be the first model in India to adopt
this new design concept promoting unique character and strong presence. This
design concept boasts of a Solid Wing Face, Well Toned Athlete Form body and
Finely Honed Surfacing on the exterior.
The new Sleek Cross-motion form exterior styling
of the 4th Generation Honda City represents a breakthrough amongst conventional
sedan styling uniting powerful One Motion Styling and elegant Coupe Styling to
create a new expression with sporty feeling appropriate to Honda. Advanced in
every way, it is the perfect look for the benchmark mid sized sedan. The All
New Honda City is sure to be the most stunning car on Indian roads.
Best Comfort
The packaging of the All New City delivers cleverly
generated interior space that exceeds its class by further evolving Honda's "man maximum machine
minimum" concept which aims at maximizing the space
available for people and minimizing the space required for mechanical
components. While maintaining compact dimensions and realizing longer
wheelbase, efficient use of space has been made for both driver and occupants
to create a spacious interior cabin with widest front seat space and rear seat
space beyond its class. The All New City measures 4440 mm in length (same as
its predecessor), 1695 mm in width (same as outgoing model), 1495 mm in height
(10 mm more than the outgoing model) and 2600 mm as the wheelbase (extended by
an additional 50 mm over outgoing model).
In the most spacious and comfortable City
that has been possible ever, the sophisticated and futuristic Layered Floating Cockpit
takes refinement and ease of driving to the next level. The cockpit’s controls
are concentrated for driver convenience and can be operated like a smartphone.
For fun, comfortable driving, the cockpit’s advanced interface gives the driver
intuitive control and instant access to all important information.
Best Fuel Efficiency
The All New City adopts the best of Honda's
powertrains to achieve best fuel efficiency performance. The Diesel variant of
the City will be powered by the 1.5L
4 cylinder DOHC i-DTEC diesel engine. This engine has been
developed exclusively for India considering Indian driving conditions and is
based on the Honda’s latest 'Earth
Dreams Technology' realizing both excellent driving performance
and offering matchless fuel economy. The Petrol variant of the City will be
powered by an improved 1.5L
4 cylinder SOHC i-VTEC petrol engine designed to offer the best
balance of engine performance and fuel economy.
Speaking at the occasion of its global
unveiling, Mr. Yoshiyuki
Matsumoto, Managing Officer, Honda Motor Company and Representative of
Development, Purchasing and Production in Asia & Oceania Region
said, "Honda City is currently sold in 55 countries across the world. City
is the leading brand of Honda in Asia and Oceania region and with the
4th generation Honda City, we aim to raise its popularity further and make it a
significant future model in Honda’s global portfolio which will be available in
many more countries."

Honda’s dominance in premium cars. City brand has been the face of Honda in
