Honda and Toyota make most practical cars. They provide most of Necessary and practical features without giving gimmicks. Although they lack frequent updates to their cars. They provide good build quality too.
Ultimately - Engine always in the most efficient mode, Brakes only used after regeneration, battery charging and discharging regularly, Excellent fuel efficiency, Decent size space and high tech, It makes perfect sense in the comparative cars segment,

I own a Honda City Gen 5 SV variant, facelift model, hence 6 speed manual. I recently did a trip to Shegaon from Mumbai. First went to Pune for some work and then headed to Shegaon. Then while returning took a detour to nasik.. total distance traveled was around 1320km in total. After calculating, the average fuel economy throughout the trip came out 20.3kmpl. 3 people,luggage and AC on at 24-25°C, with an average speed of 85kmph, got a average fuel economy of 20.3kmpl
I really loved the civic, but back those days I couldn't afford it and today can afford but can't buy, it's a dream which is in doubtful to come true..
Thank you for the wonderful review. One of things I feel which everyone is missing out is the drive comfort. Just the fact that the engine only runs in a certain rpm band most of the time and also while the drive for most part is electric. I think on any drive whether in city or on highway, the drive should be very comfortable as the vibration and sound will be very low. I have noticed this very clearly while driving a diesel car, you always feel more tired due to the sound and vibration. I find this car value for money except the bolt space part.
Weird question but since we cannot manually switch to engine mode and car starts and stays on only battery until you reach a certain speed,how will we get PUC certificate?
Honda should remove a few smart features like autonomous driving, drls, sunroof, and launch a cheaper version at 17.5L ex showroom. It would make more sense to people who simply need a highly efficient car and not a smart car. Would be a great choice for commercial sector too.
My Hyundai create petrol is struggling at 9 - 10 KPMh in NCR heat. If City eHEV gives even 20, then assuming 15,000/month fuel cost of my creta will go down to 7.5k. Annual savings = 1 lakh approx Cost difference of 4 lakhs is recovered in 4 years. Even sooner if you extract better mileage. And if oil prices go further up, this recovery period will get lower further. Worst case, this is a real deal 4th year onwards.
Biggest issue with Honda city is the ground clearance on Indian roads. I hit many spear breakers on toll plazas no matter how careful I’m. If Honda city could reach the ground clearance of Škoda Slavia, then with this practical eHEV model, it will be the best option to buy.
Slavia kills everything else in terms of looks. It has become best selling C segment sedan in April, pushing city to 2nd and ciaz to only 3 digit sales figures
Bro , I bought a 2021 polo gt tsi car just 10,000 driven vehicle for 9 lakhs. Vehicle is smooth , but mileage is 7 kmpl. It's really draining all of my salary. Please tell a solution to increase mileage or should I sell it off ?
@@KK-gc5lj Polo GT claims a milage of around 16 i think but if you are getting 6-8...there can be many reasons to be honest 1) City driving conditions (like heavy traffic and stuff) 2) Your driving style 3) Inadequate quality of petrol used etc. So you need to balance all these stuff and more. Otherwise Polo is an excellent car
gagan bhai really love the way you explain 🔥 I'm watching your video after watching Faisal khans video, now i got a better clarity about the car only after your explanation
Ye car bhot hi jada underrated hai ... I think 22 lakh rs me apko 26-27 kmpl without any compromise on power and torque.. koi aur nhi kr sakta sirf Honda hi kar sakti hai ..but you know Indian market yaha sasta bhi chaiye aur badhiya bhi 😬
Despite the impressive mileage numbers most of us won't be able to recover the extra cost we are paying upfront over the regular petrol version. Mujhe nahi lagta zyada bikegi. EV wale tax exemption milte toh alag baat thi.
Gagan bhai, Due to battery pack suspensions are tuned differently, so does that mean it won't scrape the floor any more without compromissing the ride quality comparing to petal and diesel city?
Honda may be waiting for the feedback from Media Review drives to price it to be a hit. So, idea should be that you should be evaluating it lesser, may be 16.99 Lakhs, so that, all of us can buy it :-D
Isme driving mode aur slow battery charging ka option bhi hona chahiye tha. Jaise performance biased, mileage biased, aur kisi ko 15km ki hi trip Karni ho battery par hi chalna hai to battery biased.
Honda is responsible for its condition in indian market because for Honda Malaysia and Thailand is more important than 4th largest automobile market which is India
This is after some rush driving if you drive good you easily can get above 22kmpl and in city drive only electric mode can get even more around 26kmpl.
Wait, wait, Gagan Has NOT stated price of this car!! In India, this question is related to price!! In 25-30 lakh price band, Not Worth!! Of this hybrid!! And, Gagan should have driven in City condition's !! Who drives on Highways daily? Truck drivers? ( Hope petrol prices remain @120-125 for a longer period)

One thing you forgot to mention is lifespan of the battery pack and what is the cost of replacing it in case? Also how is the e-cvt in terms of durability?
@@AnkurJhavery What is the cost of replacing the battery if it is needed after 8 years? Since the car will cost more than 20 lakh rupees, I would want to keep it at least for 15 years to get true savings from the higher mileage. But if the battery itself is 10 lakhs then this car is useless in my opinion. Just buy a regular 10-15 lakh sedan and drive it hassle free for 10 years and then sell it again for 2-3 lakhs in the future.
Ground clearance when four adults seated is going to be a problem on Indian roads. Waterlogged roads, big speed breakers on some roads, muddy and damaged roads are a no-no for this car. And I think driving in small satellite towns or villages would be problematic.
I did test driving of the fifth generation Honda City ZX CVT yesterday with 4 adults in the car. The sales rep insisted on ground clearance (GC) not being an issue and let us do our test drive for 15 km on roads of our choice. So we went over various kinds of speed breakers - small sharp pointed types, mall like three spaced breakers, pedestrain safe long speed breakers, umarked hastily made uneven height types, unnatural broken speed breaker types, ill maintained speed breakers which have 9 inch potholes right after it, unnatural roas repair patchwork which makes dangerous speed breaker like undulations etc. And not once did the car lower part hit the surface. Speeds at which I tested varied from 5-10, 15-25 and 25 to 45 and three our four times at 45 to 55. I have not tested it over tough countryside roads and certainly not over off roading surfaces. However, to somewhat simulate the broken bricks and dissimilar height we went to a godawn area where some parts had this feature due to heavy vehicles damaging it. It did not bottom out except once - this one instance was the right side shocker made a 'clink' like sound which means that it had compressed fully due to approach angle and speed. Drive speed was 20 in this area. So I am no longer skeptical about GC. As for waterlogged area we tried it near location where water usually collects to about 12 to 20 inches. Again no issues-assuming of course one slows down to 10-20kms through such sections. The average weight of four adults being 50-100kgs and height being 4.10 to 5.11. Of course it is no off roader nor meant to be driven over natural rock beds etc. What I'm not - a repeat Honda customer, Honda City fanboy or diehard fan of CSUVs or sedans. Wanted to test drive the Hybrid but no test drive vehicle was available with any of the showroom branches. The Hybrid pricing is what Gagan indicated the second time - i.e. 4 to 4.5 higher than the top end price for the ZX non hybrid CVT fifth generation City. I beleive now that the GC issue was aggrevated due to earlier generations of City and in particular the now discontinued Civic and Accord. We are still on fence about the Hybrid due to budget and pending test drives from the Mahindra stable - XUV700 and Scorpio Classic with the new engine and improved suspension. FYI with due respect to others I don't place much value on infotainment systems or sunroofs et al. Hope this helps somebody.
If ll be getting 20 21 average on highway at 100 120 speed , I think I ll stick to my old city which gives 17 kmpl at 100 speed on highways And in city 14
Gagan bhaiya did you drove it on rough roads? Did you touch the road at any point? I'm concerned about the thing you showed us at the front wheel axel. I think it will repeatedly touch at breakers.
Better way would be small petrol engine and bigger battery pack. Use of petrol engine to automatically get ON to charge battery and keep it always charged. Don’t know how feasible that is but it will definitely give more mileage.
I am seriously considering buying this, we have 2020 creta diesel and I like the power figure. This is coming with similar power figures, is it as punch as a diesel engine. Also ‘Ghanta’ was the word you skipped 😝😝
Why not install a 600cc engine and then give 2 ev motors with bigger battery? 600c can rescue car when battery is low and ev motor can help 600cc engine when it needs torque specially in city use it will be champ in fuel efficiency and affordability
Sir if possible can you give comparison video of honda city hybrid vs grand vitara strong hybrid. Because currently these two are hybrid cars available and which one is better fuel efficient need to understand.
Well explained Hybrid Gagan bhai 👍🏼 you missed mention Electric AC provided. Request you make seperate video for ADAS Honda sensing features Honda always been leader in innovation with the iVTEC, IMA before and now iMMD e:HEV Nobody can match engine expertise of Honda Honda Toyota makes most practical cars, provide most of Necessary and practical features without giving gimmicks.

@GaganChoudhary Nice review but some feedbacks. You dont review external features like aero twin vipers, exhaust, shark fin antenna, windows tint etc. Can you also review that since i like watching your videos
I’m using Honda city since last 5 years. The worst part about Honda cars is servicing is required every six months otherwise your cars warranty will be void. This is not affordable to everyone. Let me know your experience with other brands.
True hemant, I own city zx and need to go service center every 6 months for scheduled servicing. VVS kaun se duniya se ho. Honda has 6 months service schedule.
That's what the car requires for long term performance. If you don't maintain, it would turn into a big cost in future. Low maintainance cars are generally not good at performance.
Honda and Toyota make most practical cars. They provide most of Necessary and practical features without giving gimmicks. Although they lack frequent updates to their cars. They provide good build quality too.

The Honda we used to know a decade ago.. is back 💥
Upfront cost is a lot. But if you plan to keep it for a very long time and lots of miles on the odo then I say it's worth it.
PS : I did the math
How many kms/year did you assume ?
My Hyundai create petrol is struggling at 9 - 10 KPMh in NCR heat.
If City eHEV gives even 20, then assuming 15,000/month fuel cost of my creta will go down to 7.5k.

Cost difference of 4 lakhs is recovered in 4 years. Even sooner if you extract better mileage.
And if oil prices go further up, this recovery period will get lower further.
Worst case, this is a real deal 4th year onwards.
Is this technology good it in long term?

Why not install a 600cc engine and then give 2 ev motors with bigger battery? 600c can rescue car when battery is low and ev motor can help 600cc engine when it needs torque specially in city use it will be champ in fuel efficiency and affordability
Incline jagah pe kaise uthegi ev mode pe? Kyon ki speed kam hoti hai....

Sir if possible can you give comparison video of honda city hybrid vs grand vitara strong hybrid. Because currently these two are hybrid cars available and which one is better fuel efficient need to understand.
Punch line starting me jawab diya hai 😇😅
Is it better than virtus?
Well explained Hybrid Gagan bhai 👍🏼 you missed mention Electric AC provided. Request you make seperate video for ADAS Honda sensing features
Honda always been leader in innovation with the iVTEC, IMA before and now iMMD e:HEV Nobody can match engine expertise of Honda
Honda Toyota makes most practical cars, provide most of Necessary and practical features without giving gimmicks. Although they lack frequent updates to their cars. They provide good build quality too.
Hope Honda soon launches Hybrid SUV crossover in creta segment
Gagan what about driving in rainy season when water logging on road., will motor cop up with that ???
Phenomenal sir.
@GaganChoudhary Nice review but some feedbacks. You dont review external features like aero twin vipers, exhaust, shark fin antenna, windows tint etc. Can you also review that since i like watching your videos
You mean I should take about them in all car videos or a dedicated video on each??

Yesss great observation dude
I’m using Honda city since last 5 years. The worst part about Honda cars is servicing is required every six months otherwise your cars warranty will be void. This is not affordable to everyone.
Let me know your experience with other brands.
New city ki yearly service hoti h
True hemant, I own city zx and need to go service center every 6 months for scheduled servicing. VVS kaun se duniya se ho. Honda has 6 months service schedule.
That's what the car requires for long term performance. If you don't maintain, it would turn into a big cost in future. Low maintainance cars are generally not good at performance.
Gangan bhaiya does it have charging slot ??
