The last Honda City was not exactly what enthusiasts would be seen in or rather be associated with unlike the first generation of the car which was tatally a drivers car. The previous City was a capable urban car but its odd styling and disproportionate looks did not set anyone’s pulse racing and sales never really flew off. Over the years it has seen dipping sales and Honda being the progressive carmaker that it is phased the model out and got us the all new 2009 Honda City in late December. Indimoto took the car for a spin on the streets of Central Delhi. Here’s what we have to say about Honda’s latest compact sedan.The new City has a good looking rear too with BMW 3 Series style tail lamps, a sharp boot and a chunky bumper. Build quality of the new City seems much better than the previous generation and it now has wider door sills, a stiffened chassis and doors which close with an assuring thud. Honda has however scrimped on alloy wheels on the Indian model which i think is primarily to save cost. The new City also appeared under-tyred with puny 175/65 R15s. Let’s hope Honda launches the sedan with fog lamps, a nice set of alloys and wider section tires soon. Safety is basic on the Indian model with only dual front airbags and ABS.
