  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2023
  • The Honda City is available in 2 flavors. There's the strong hybrid e-HEV, with the 1.5-liter petrol engine and i.5 i-VTEC. How does hybrid stack up against petrol? We've got a drag strip to find out.

      Not degrading IVTEC but the "Turbo" is a Turbo once it kicks in then the car pulls so strongly that u don't miss the NA except for the city commutes (that too sometimes) but that isn't a deal breaker....

      Hybrid with CVT, and regular petrol with manual, that would be unfair…
      They already did a drag race between the Gen 5 City and Gen 1 City, both with manual gearboxes… The Gen 5 won by a difference of just 1 sec, due to little extra power and larger wheels compared to Gen 1…

    I had a doubt since a long time.. The premium Honda charging for City Hybrid over the normal City is justified or not? I think yes, it has good efficiency which can cover up the running costs, and it has much better torque and performance over the regular City.. Or is it best to settle with Verna or Virtus GT??

    • @arv1ndgr
      @arv1ndgr ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's worth it if at least Honda getting that additional cost. Currently Govt taxes Hybrids like same that of ICE Cars, which means Virtus, Verna are more value for money. BUT, if you daily run say 100+ km in tight city traffic, City Hybrid is the only car that will offer phenomenal efficiency in that use case, combined with the smoothness of Honda

      That would be unfair… It would make sense if they had raced the petrol CVT with the petrol manual… But we all know for a fact that whether it be the City petrol CVT or the Hybrid vs the petrol manual, the manual would definitely win…
      What would make even better sense would be to race the City petrol manual with the City diesel…

      Being a CVT they don’t launch properly unlike a manual… Check the Civic vs Innova drag race video… Had the Civic been a manual, it would’ve beaten the Innova by a long shot… Unfortunately they did a drag race between a petrol CVT and a diesel torque convertor, they should’ve used the diesel manual instead… But the only available options for the Civic were petrol CVT and diesel manual… Of course it flopped big time in the Indian market…
