Honda City Prices Increased by up to Rs 20,000 in India; Check New Prices Here

Honda has revised the prices of its popular sedan, the City, in India, with an increase of up to Rs 20,000 across select variants (SV MT, V MT, VX MT, VX CVT, ZX MT, and ZX CVT). The price hike affects the sedan's petrol models, making it slightly costlier for buyers in the premium mid-size sedan segment. The base petrol variant now starts at Rs 11.82 lakh, while the top-end model goes up to Rs 16.63 lakh. Both mentioned prices are ex-showroom figures. For the uninitiated, the Japanese carmaker previously hiked the prices for the Elevate SUV by up to Rs 20,000. Despite the price hike, the City will likely remain appealing to buyers due to its well-established reputation for delivering excellent performance, superior comfort, and modern features, such as Honda Sensing ADAS available in the higher variants.

Honda City: Powertrain and Mileage

Powering the petrol model is a 1.5-litre VTEC DOHC engine producing 119bhp and 145Nm of torque, paired with either a six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed CVT.

The hybrid e:HEV version integrates a self-charging dual-motor e-CVT system alongside a 1.5-litre Atkinson-Cycle DOHC i-VTEC engine. This advanced configuration supports three distinct driving modes: EV, Hybrid, and Engine drive. Additionally, regenerative braking during deceleration helps recharge the lithium-ion battery. The hybrid setup delivers a combined output of 124bhp and 253Nm of torque.
