Our take on this /// Verdict

The Honda City Diesel VX 5th Gen is a stellar choice for those seeking a reliable, feature-rich, and comfortable sedan. My experience with this vehicle has been nothing short of impressive. The 1.5L i-DTEC engine, though not as rev-happy as its petrol counterpart, offers excellent fuel efficiency and sufficient power for both city and highway driving. The handling and steering are spot on, making it a joy to drive in various conditions. The interior is spacious, with the rear seats being among the best in its class, and the feature list is comprehensive, including a sunroof, smart key with keyless entry, and cruise control. However, there are some minor drawbacks such as the lack of ventilated seats, no 360-degree camera, and some concerns with the ADAS system. Overall, the Honda City Diesel VX 5th Gen is a well-rounded package that balances performance, comfort, and practicality, making it a strong contender in its segment.

Price

In India, the Honda City Diesel VX 5th Gen is priced competitively. The ex-showroom price for this variant typically ranges between 14.5 lakh to 16 lakh, depending on the location and any additional features or accessories. On-road prices, including taxes, registration, and insurance, can go up to around 17.5 lakh to 19 lakh. Given the features, reliability, and performance it offers, the price seems justified. The VX variant is particularly good value, offering a balance of premium features and affordability, making it a popular choice among buyers who want more than the base model but do not need all the bells and whistles of the top ZX variant.

Latest Updates

Sunday, 10 November 2024 09:01 PM Honda City Diesel Discontinued Ahead of RDE Norms The 2023 Honda City facelift has discontinued the diesel engine option in India, ahead of the upcoming Real Driving Emission (RDE) norms. This move aligns with Hondas strategy to comply with the new emission standards. I believe this decision might impact the appeal of the Honda City for those who prefer diesel engines, but its a necessary step for environmental compliance.

Sunday, 10 November 2024 12:31 PM New Variants and ADAS Features Introduced The 2023 Honda City facelift has introduced new variants, including the SV and an entry-level V trim for the hybrid model. Additionally, Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) features, previously limited to the hybrid, are now available in manual variants as well. This includes adaptive cruise control, auto high beam assist, and lane departure warning. I think these updates make the Honda City a more competitive and safer option in its segment.

Sunday, 10 November 2024 09:28 AM Enhanced Safety and Comfort Features The latest Honda City facelift comes with enhanced safety features, including up to six airbags and a robust safety kit that has earned a 5-star rating in the ASEAN NCAP. The car also boasts improved interiors with physical buttons for the entertainment and climate control systems, and features like a wireless charger and ambient lighting. I believe these additions significantly enhance the overall driving experience and safety of the vehicle.

Sunday, 10 November 2024 10:52 AM Improved Ride and Handling Honda has addressed the previous issues with ride quality by tuning the suspension specifically for Indian roads. The new City now offers a softer suspension that handles potholes and bumps better without feeling floaty on the highway. This improvement makes the car more comfortable for daily driving. I think this is a crucial update that will appeal to many potential buyers.

Monday, 11 November 2024 01:24 AM Competitive Pricing and Market Rivals The 2023 Honda City facelift is priced competitively, starting at Rs 11.49 lakh for the base SV variant. It will rival other popular sedans like the Skoda Slavia, Volkswagen Virtus, Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, and the upcoming Hyundai Verna. I believe the pricing strategy and the added features will help the Honda City remain a strong contender in the market.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 06:15 PM The Honda City Diesel VX 5th Gen is renowned for its excellent fuel efficiency. In real-world conditions, this car can easily deliver mileage of over 20 kmpl, especially on highways. In city driving, it still manages to offer around 15-17 kmpl, which is impressive given the traffic conditions in Indian cities. This makes it an attractive option for those concerned about running costs, as it combines good performance with economical fuel consumption.
