There are reason why city is known as legendary car ❤️
It’s because under 20 lacs options were almost zero only with Verna , Škoda VW changes the game
but Slavia looks and performs better
DSG ka naam suna hai ?
It all about investment !! And my money is on Honda City!! Ofcourse Reliability of Honda is an add on❤️
The slavia is a breath of fresh air, the 1.5 TSI is unmatched and the manual is exceptional 🙌
How is your after sale services experience bro??
All time favourite Honda City.....love the space and the drive quality 😍🤩
🤣🤣🤣 ,
Bhai video dekhne pe salavia nhi samagh ayegi ,.., ek bar paas se dekho , uske baad city k taraf mud k v nhi dekhoge .
Salavia is 1000x better then city.
@@xyz001.. still no resale value and owners are facing technical issues in slavia no doubt the build quality is good and engine is powerful but still apart from service packages, parts and maintenance is still costly as compared to honda yes the looks matters but after sale services and maintenance is primary objective....
Pls drive Slavia 1 litre manual..it's driving dynamics is better..stability is good and interior is modern..also u get type c ports..autostart stop..also turbo helps in reaching speeds fast..

May be it's not imp to some but would someone give some details on pick up difference of both. Keep in mind skoda 1l compared to City 1.5
City is peace of mind and if driven correctly it is very fuel efficient
diesel or petrol?
@@ayaanmehrotra9267 Petrol. Honda is known for petrol
Honda city is not for youngsters guys...it's for people above 40

I had civic in my teens and my oh my it was fabulous
I am owner of 4th gen V MT owner and looking for an automatic car, driven all the cars, found 5th gen city CVT the best, Slavia is good for high speeds due to turbo engine but at low speeds and traffic conditions in the city, CITY seems to be the best. There is pathetic turbo lag in Slavia 1.0 and is not bearable even in 1.5 in slow moving traffic. To top it slavia has ac issues reported by multiple owners, you have to be lucky not to have those issues with a slavia. I so want to like a slavia since I don’t want to again buy the same car but somehow nothing beats the city, not even the Elevate.
Unfortunately, I did not understand everything, but I understood that Skoda does not have it easy in India (service, expensive spare parts, I do not know ...), I am from the country of the manufacturer; but, I know it has always been and is a reliable car, excellent driving, I think that Slavia made in India, now probably only for India, is a very good car and it is a pity that it will not be sold here in Europe, probably because of the price ...
Not really reliable
Hey Milan Thanks for your comment. I’m from Mumbai and last month took delivery of my new Slavia. I am pleasantly surprised by their responsiveness and service quality. It’s a different Škoda we are now witnessing under the leadership of Zac Hollis
No hesitation in recommending the Slavia
@@rishabhx7 still way reliable than tin ka dabaa but expensive
@@erenyeagerattack6313 which tin ka dabba?
@@rishabhx7 who else
Mr india maruti suzuki 😂
Honda should bring back Civic. First love of most of 90s kids🥹
They had but hardly anyone bought it so they stopped again.
@@jaydeepmohile They were doing nothing with it just the same old features no improvement over the old one's. Even the infotainment system was outdated. On the other hand Hyundai is still working on making elantra best.
Dont know why Indians didnt buy well in 2019 while Pakistanis were buying them like candies.
BTW I have a FD2.
Bhai ne bahot hi logically nd practically explained Kiya he.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice comparison video.
Very nice, enjoyed it, sir
Hi - which car would be best suited for smooth ride on bumpy and potholes filled Indian roads ?? Ride comfort is my only criteria.
Best comparision. Very honest
Still honda city is leader in segments and mostly its reliable engines.
Great presentation
I'll buy both as can't dislike either! 🥰
I am getting slavia 1.0 MT topend varient ar almost 17 in road. Not sure if it is worth it or not
Unable to come to a decision if should I consider slavia or not as I am looking for a top end varient. But the price should justify the quality in all matters
If the city type instrument cluster- Analog and digital was in slavia then it would have been the best combination
Salvias base and mid variants have same analog consoles
Does it really matter?
Honda City without a doubt
i always go for speed so as you said city is known for space not speed but slavia have good high speed stability so it can be a good point for me So Either i can go for skoda slavia or for any other car but if speed with confort is more important for me than obviosly not honda city ✌✌👀
When it comes to peace of mind, better feel and reliability, City's bar is still high for Slavia to reach. Skoda's heavy maintenance will have to improve as well.
Dont agree the way City has been pointed down in Riding segment... I have driven VW aggressively for years so m familiar with its High speed Rides but in no way City 5th gen feels otherwise... Its as composed as a great Sedan wud/shud be... it stays on speeds immensely comfortably n A passionate driver wud love to b there with that iVtec... As one wud love to b behind a Skoda. So thts not the case.
It just boils down to the looks n preference!
Arey bhaiyaaa
Agree with you💯
So, I'm the proud owner of City 4th Gen & Slavia 1 ltr Style MT ( Red in colour) .. Both are my favorite ❤
Hi bro
Can you recommend any one of them
Which one is it bcz im confused
Hi Sir. Thanks for this wonderful comparison.
One query -
Which one will perform better on hilly terrains with n number of curves?
And which one to go with for in traffic cities?
The Slavia’s suspension, like the engine tune, is well suited for the city. It cushions you well from the surface, especially the everyday bumps like speed breakers and broken roads. Larger bumps can be felt, and the suspension tends to make a thud as well, but the suspension does take care of the harshness. On the highways, the Slavia remains very stable and mile-munching will be effortless. On the other hand, Honda has fixed the unnecessarily stiff ride quality that plagued the fourth-generation City. The suspension tune is unique for Indian roads, tailored to take on our potholes and bumps. Shock absorption has improved noticeably and the suspension is also quieter as it goes about tackling them. This softer suspension, thankfully, hasn’t resulted in a floaty feeling on the highway. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test drive for a better understanding of performance and comfort.

Arun: Im choosing between Škoda Slavia top end and Octavia Sportline.. is the difference if around 15 lacs justified?
Go with slavia…i just booked one
Octavia doesn’t feel much of an upgrade and is ridiculously overpriced
As per my 4 month research on this topic:
1. Buy Honda city Vx if your budget is around 15 lakhs max as it is more vfm at that price point.
2. You could buy either Honda city or slavia 1.0 if your budget is around 16 lakhs or 10-20 thousand more.
3. If your budget is more than that, say around 18-19 lakhs, go for slavia 1.5, it’s incomparable to any car (except the virtus of course) in this range.
Ps: I myself have been in this dilemma for the last 4-5 months and after numerous of videos, articles and showroom visits, I have booked the slavia 1.5 MT.
Obviously I go with honda. Honda's dealership and after sale service is way better than skoda. Maintenance cost also very affordable in honda. Honda's resale value also better than skoda. And Honda's ivetec engine...... Man.... It's superior than any other car brands. Up to 3 lac kilometre it won't give you any trouble if you properly maintain the car.
what is the average of city comparitively slavia
Extremely disappointed with Skoda for the cost cutting they have done using inferior quality materials on the interior of this beautiful car. It really feels cheap on touch and is nowhere near the luxurious feel the city interior provides.
yes .. despite the pricing being so high they could not focus on quality levels
But skoda's build quality & engine performance is absolutely unmatched.
@@FitOver035 lets wait for safety ratings .. 1.5 vtec is surely better than 1.0 tsi
Its not cost cutting. 10 inch screen tft production was an issue due to war thats why they went with 8 inch screen available in global variant. This is so they can bring waiting time down for buyers
Had it given more quality..would you have been ready to pay extra amount for that? No
You would have still chosen maruti desire
In comparison do include running and maintenance cost also, its very much deciding factor
Hi. Right now me driving Honda city 4 th gen cvt model and very much fully satisfied. Me want to upgrade now and my budget is 30L. Me want a fully comfortable rear seat for 5 passengers. Pls suggest. And me need a automatic
Save money & buy *Toyota Camry*
What do you think about the Ground clearance in Slavia, does it hit potholes or breakers like city ? Also it’s rear camera view is not on the clearer side!! But the 1.5 engine is definitely a beast
gc on slavia....are you joking me
@@naughtyUphillboy didn’t get you if you can shed some light 😊
5th gen city’s clearance is good between the wheelbase, hardly touches any speed breaker. Only the front clearance is an issue in the city. The slavia being higher should obviously not face any issues.
I owned the 4th gen city, it had its negatives but its pros out perform its cons. thinking that I bought the city 5th gen, no doubt its vey good, but in 1 years time it has devolved a few rattles, the suspense is comfortable but makes noise, there is very minimal road noise but the suspension noise spoiler the Honda good acoustics, you won't notice it if you play light music. speaking about music the speakers are great its just quality its has enough thump and good enough bass with a woofer. never experienced any distortion and suits all kinds of music. the A/C is better in the 5th gen than the 4th. I even go the tires changed from 185 sections to 195 now it handles better now the bouncing has reduced. My sister bought the 1.5l turbo salvia the engine is punchy but no refinement, the cabin feels claustrophobic, fit and finish is not up to Skoda levels, the leather used is better in the city, seats are more comfortable aswell in the city. but all those said the driving makes up for it the powerful mids and lows, the suspension and high speed stability is impeccable....... for the price point. my civic drives better but lacks the engine. and said that for the 5 lakh difference in price I would rather push for the octavia mid variant
Hey Anshul, can you tell me about the pros & cons of the 4th gen, and if it is worth buying in 2022? Thanks in advance & have a great day
@@davidstone7731 ya sure man
My old car the Honda city 4th gen (pre facelift model) is very dear to me, it looks more sporty and from some angles I prefer the looks of my old car, the interior design is nice aswell. The engine in it is very silent when compared to the 5th gen which is already very silent the suspension is on the harder side but it doesn’t mean it’s uncomfortable infact its more planted and Compliant on bouncy surfaces, the steering wheel feels more connected provides more feedback. I sometimes feel the backseat experience of the 4th gen is better. Breaks on both are very nice.
If I nitpick the road noise is a bit intrusive, the infotainment could have been much better, it has a few Unusual blindspots, speakers provided are a bit mah, the body shell is a bit weak the bumper clips especially, headlight throw very unsatisfactory but u can get it upgraded with leds which improves the visible by a lot still very less compared to the current gen zx led lights (Philips H4 ultinon pro led i What I had upgraded to). The interior lights are also not very nice. Strangely the service comes was also a bit more expensive. The light colour mats also is a problem. Expect that not any major gripes. And I suggest maybe u can upgrade the Tyres increase them 195 sectional tyres, the LEDs are a must and get 3m matting done.
4th gen city is a very strong option especially if u wanna travel alone on the highway the 5th gen is a bit bouncy on the highway especially while travelling alone. For the price it’s very practical, it provides a sporty drive, the engines pleasing on an Enthusiast, comfy, provides all Necessary features, looks lovely I guess that’s what makes the car still a choice in 2022. I give my big yes as an owner
My one of the legend Sedan Honda City
One simple question, which car do u see more on Road? No doubt Honda City.
Excellent
Why can't Honda also do some engineering or slight designing modifications and get the ground clearance (laden) of City to 180 mm! ( earlier also Car Manufacturers like Fiat (Linea) and Maruti (SX4) have done it). I am sure, doing just this modification and marketing the product based on this, would save the life of sedans in India!
Waiting for hybrid slavia with max 1 lack more on existing.
Looking for a good deal. Let’s see which one get Lucky from olx.
Don't know why Slavia has less space on inside as compared to City irrespective it having 51 mm larger wheel base
They have adjusted that space in the boot whereas City has distributed more in the cabin.
@@jaydeepmohile but about width as well Slavia is 1752 mm vs City 1748 mm and still City feels more roomy
That's japnese engineering to perfection 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
It's not.. City feels bigger because of the all beige interiors. It gives you a more airy feel. Personally I sat 3 members of my family at the back seat of both cars. They didn't feel any difference in space. In fact because of the adjustable headrest in slavia they said it was better to sit at. However in terms of comfort city is better. Seats have that cushiony feel.
Slavia though is kind of an all rounder. It has features of verna, space of city and handling of skoda so it is an overall package
@@BB-fb2uh Yes that is because of the upholstery color and Slavia's back seats are too contoured unlike City because of which it is difficult to move to the extreme corner for adjusting 3rd passenger.
Slavia has best in segment Tsi technology ,ride and handling ,amazing rear legroom and boot space for long journey and yes exterior built quality and warranty are any time better in Slavia 👍🏽
handling city is better.............unfortunate truth
@@naughtyUphillboy drove both cars yesterday. Slavia's drive experience and feel is 10 times better than city
@@VivekKumar-ss8sn 10 times
@@VivekKumar-ss8sn 10 times lmao, cmmon honda is better in handling dont deny the fact.
@@izumi9962atleast first take a drive of both cars
(Maybe Now you will say I drove both the cars blah blah)
If you really drove those 2 you will know that slavia has better handling and driving experience
Honestly you just can’t go wrong
Both are value for money
U should’ve have mentioned service cost also btw
My favourite is Skoda. It looks stunning
Honda was doing nothing for years in market thanks to skoda well deserved competitor.
Bhai Maine toh city liya hai and I am very much satisfied
city looks sharper and more attractive, where slavia attracts everyone just because it resembles some bmw elements
Four things if Honda consider they can still stand in front line.1st suspension 2nd ventilation seats and 3rd ground clearance 4th angle of the infotainment system
Yes nobody talking about angle of stereo. It’s so weirdly inclined towards back that’s it’s totally unnecessary and kinda hard for driver to use
@2:17 jute chappal rakh sakte hey!! You are so practical yar you understand indian people mentality
I was planning to buy a sedan but fed-up with Honda service as I am using WR-V.
Therefore no other option to go with Slavia.
Honda service is too poor in lucknow and expensive also in comparision to Skoda .
None of my complaints were ever attended by Honda in one time.
Slavia looks stunning ride quality amazing fun to drive...

Sab kouch mila wila ke salvia top model kitne tak ka pdd jyga sir
18 for 1.0 and 21 for 1.5
Honda's base and mid variant beats both slavia and virtus base and mid variant easily. The only fight is for the top variant of City, just because of slavia and virtus cooled seats and wireless charging.
It would be great if you make the videos in English bro .
Enthusiastic mindset : Slavia
Sensible middle class mindset : City
As simple as that.
Not that simple Enthusiast Mindset : City Manual over 1 liter TSI
Sensible middle class mindset : City better mileage,resale and Vtech reliability.
Slavia is good only when it’s 1.5 but No good mileage not so premium seeing the price.

Undoubtedly Honda City❤️
after seeing the slavia in person i found out what i didnt like about this car, it the size of the front grille!! if it would have been smaller it would surely look like a bmw 5 series
Yess , grill's size must be reduced .
Btw its a 16 lac Bmw
Honda is honda ..honda city is best for long term use with best resale value
Unfortunately due to the lack of TDI in Slavia and not so good i-dtec in City I'll prefer CRDi that is still evident with Verna.
mileage is decent in city as well as slavia petrols

simple

you are limited in budget not interested in drive quality longevity depends on you:honda city
The plastic materials chosen by Skoda for interiors are really cheap , they should have gone for soft touch materials, making car more expensive by 50 k would have been ok

I have zx 5th gen city. It may seem i am biased,but city is a lovely car with best in class comfort and engine above 4000 rpm
Hi. Did you drive the vehicle on any kaccha road so far? Can you please share your experiences if so?
@@biswadeepdutta5941 i have driven on non existent village roads. You just have to be careful. Not even once did it scrape the underbody. Also,there is enough protection underside if it scrapes somehow. I have taken my car even to extreme locations like tiger hill darjeeling,with 5 adults and fully packed boot,in january this year. Even encountered snow. The car drove beautifully. It never slipped or scraped in such high mountain roads..
Just be careful,city has enough GC. Believe me!
Thank you ☺️
Personally skoda good but price wise it's to high and benefits are not upto the mark especially sitting and interiors. Same is the issue with Kushaq.
So Honda City makes more sense. Priced at 17 lacs. Honda City makes more practical sense than Skoda.
City all day cheaper more refined most reliable.... Next to zero maintance...
सिटी पर भरोसा है कियुकी वो पहले से है । slavia ठीक गाड़ी है । भरोसा हे पर उतना नहीं इसलिए में सिटी ले रहा हूँ
Biased reporting towards City haven't covered a lot of things in skoda.
Slavia❤️
I have a 1L slavia ambition manual
Milage about 13-16 in city; 18-19 on highway
Only bad plastic is the piano black
Instrument cluster is IMO better than the one offered in top variant
Seats are really firm and nice
Driving at high speeds is really planted and comfortable
The fabric seats do not get hot and so I don’t really miss the vent seats
AC performance is not that great
Visibility is an issue for me. Blind spots are huge
Overall a good car
Doesn’t have any gimmicky features and looks minimilistic and mature
I like the overall design of 4th gen city than the 5th gen, but overall the interiors of both are plain ugly to me
None of these cars are performance oriented and give very similar experience
