UPDATE! The Honda City e:HEV has been launched for Rs 19.49 lakh (ex-showroom). What do you think of the price?
My Prediction Was Above 22 Lakhs But 19.49 Is Worth It !
Way too pricey! I would rather pick any car with a diesel engine and save half the money for a Thailand visit ;)
It's costly
Very high
At current petrol price of 120rs per litre, Hybrid City would take 1.1lakh kilometers to be on par with the expenses incurred when bought and driven a regular petrol honda city zx cvt variant for the same kilometers. All this not including the maintenenace costs. I'd say it's not very economical. Maybe useful if you travel a lot(a lot). might as well buy a diesel vehicle.
Always Honda City is known for best in class for engineering towards engine and smoothness towards driving
It should have come with at least two variants.. zx and One Without features like adas, side cams etc. and priced around 17lcs..
On road will be 25 lac ? Is it worth ? They just increased the pricing for fuel efficiency
Honda is all about supreme driving dynamics and new Engineering techniques. I think this is the best car know in this sedan segment
it's still the best in the segment at least in our market become number one
Bought the ZX petrol CVT for 17 lakh on road in Sept 2021. If the estimated price ex showroom is 22 lac. It will be a hard sell. Cos on road it will be close to 25 lac. People will not pay that extra 7-8 lac for fuel cost. They might just go for a diesel city ZX
Very well done review. Autocar India has a standard and you can tell by watching a review. I think this has been shot around the Bengaluru airport.
Exactly what I was thinking! I am subscribed to all the other automotive channels but only Autocar & Evo India do clear straight to the point reviews. Everyone else has their focus on cinematography & just complicated gags that is borderline hard to focus on what is being said.
Amazing review! Perfect guide for someone who doesn’t understand cars well. Great work Autocar!
Perfect timing by Honda to bring this new offering... Certainly has not priced it crazily like the hybrid accord... 😁
Masterpiece from Honda
As a True Honda Fanboy I feel the Happiness that this Car Doesn't have any Direct Compitition as of now in this Segment 😊😊❤️❤️ i-VTEC Kicks in Yo with that 250 NM of Torque 😊😊❤️❤️
even if the "estimated 22 lac price" is _ON ROAD PRICE,_ IT is too much for a car like city.
The sporty e-hev ever to have been in India under 20 lakh, sporty exterior, sporty performance and a sporty interior., overall a sporty e-hev of real drive to enthusiasts.,👍👏👌🥂
22 lakhs ex showroom is a deal breaker. More tech means more chances of errors. At this price range, least radar detection should have been added, along with ventilated seats
Excellent review.Hats off Honda.My only gripe is the omission of ventilated seats.
this is one of my favourite cars and this car has become the best-selling sedan in our market it's still continuing until today and beats all the competition
Excellent detailed review. Thank you.
Would be great to do a follow up video with real world economy. As that's what buyers will look for, sepcially in this model as compared to the internal combustion engine variants.
Hi Kshitij, we will be doing a proper efficiency test once we get the car for a longer duration. This was a first drive so we had to shoot for the magazine and the video and since the results wouldn’t be consistent, we avoided it. But even after hard driving we could manage around 16kpl. So city driving might return around 17-18kpl. Cheers!
That's the beauty of Japanese engineering.
Kudos to Honda
If it was diesel, I'm sure it'd do 30 kmpl lol. Impressive tech. I have always been for PHEVs. ICE to EV is too much of a transition.
ICE to PHEV to EV sounds rational imo
The motor kicks in Only at Triple digit speeds is itself the biggest win for me here. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wonderful review. Followed several review on this car but the reviewer in Autocar India is a class apart. Lucid detailing review.
Would like to see the how cost efficiency is to buy this vs ev cars. I’m guessing the hybrid cars are expensive in terms of maintenance. I may be wrong, but correct me.
hope this gets the same love as previous models 💗
Long time had been reviewed by... Jai.... 😅😅
Complex System in Honda City... Need extensive experience from customers.....
Actually speaking today Jai's review was new style... timing and explanation....
❤️ From Bengaluru
They should have made some significant changes on the outside... to differentiate it from the regular City... it doesn't look new or striking.. don't get me wrong.. the City's design is really great.. but there are so many on the road today... this doesn't look like a brand new one... i love sedans.. great to see new ones coming in the market like Virtus Slavia and now this... but I'm really liking the Virtus 1.5 GT
You want the cost to increase more? For useless exterior "differentiation"?
Thank you for the video. I hope you would have stated numbers of the actual economy the car gives. The question is, is fuel economy really worth of increase in cost.
Honda Created a new segment, at a right time. Certainly, it’s an Eco upgrade for those who want a spacious, eco friendly, efficient, fun to drive(also, to backseat lovers). It ticks ✅ all boxes. Now that roads are getting better, it should pickup the sales 👍
Very well narrated review.
I watch a lot of videos regarding new car & biks launches ... But none of them explains the way Autocar does about the vehicles.
Apart from the price everything else is awesome in this Honda.
What is the running cost for the hybrid can we compare it with diesel model running cost?
So the fact that it's fast and tech loaded makes it a reasonable to car buy along with it being a hybrid car ❤️
Love the Honda city! Best of all time and hope it just becomes better than before!
now it's even better than before and the model has become the best-selling sedan in our market and it beats all the competition
Can’t wait to take up Honda India Marketing task!! It’s great product. Time to get 2 SUVs in portfolio.
I am all for such cars...No headache of waiting for recharge but still functions like ev and optimises fuel usage. Worth buying than those crap 100% EVs.
Pls tell me below 100 speed engine will not comes into play or remains working along with motors and battery
What is the battery only range?
I have a 2018 V-MT iVTEC and it gives me 18-20km on highway rides with a light footed drive. So the breakeven to go for the new hybrid will still be a big IF
I don't think people who spend 20 lakhs on a 5 seater sedan care about fuel efficiency 😂😂
Honda should launch the same car with an SUV body style it will be a huge hit
what is the background music playing from 11:40 to 13:54 . please reply.
How is city ehev different from Toyota Prius?
how is the technology so different for the hype? is it just the size of the battery pack which is the differentiator.
Honda has hit bulls eye with this splendid machine 💯
Every car sold in India should have auto high and low beam feature.
This red colour looks great!
South India has pretty good charging stations around. You have to be specific about which part of india have very few charging stations
Everything is good, but my doubt is will Honda continue in India? They have shut down one of their plant and currently they are using their plant near Gujarat, also they don't have any other models other than City. What is Honda's plan in India for their vehicles?
The way u explained is super & Easy to understand..But the car itself is super But price is on higher side.. Can't Afford it..
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
Honda nailed it and perfect timing to launch the hybrid model. what is the overall kerb weight of the car?
Will we not get the rs trim in india ??????
Honda City or Creta?
Preferences:
1. Petrol Automatic
2. Driving pleasure (highway, city, hilly areas (during long trips which happen once in a while)
3. Comfortable ride (both front and rear seats)
4. Durability + peace of mind + less maintenance cost
Should I even consider City Hybrid?
Why no one is taking about frameless auto dimming IRVM. It was there in 4th gen city and now in city i hev and its looks awesome.
Is this RWD till ~80kmph and FWD afterwards?
wish it comes in the base and mid trims
When can we expect a review of the new Brezza?
As always your reviews are the best....hybrid is the best option as there is no range anxiety.....Honda Sensing not practical for Indian roads....ZX only for people looking for high tech in a car.....Honda should also get a VX varient....would sell like hot cakes
What about the tank to tank Mileage ?
This is a product of Honda's recent successful engine supplier days in F1. Challenging Mercedes is no joke; R&D at its very best !!
Well explained
For 22 lakhs, that too a petrol car, I feel this is priced at a crazy range. It will take an age to come level with the investment when there are already other cars even among Honda’s brigade itself to have closer mileage claims.
And by then, there will be better hybrid tech as well. Those who have money to throw will get this, but I personally don’t see an immediate benefit.
What is the battery size in kWh?
Is the battery liquid cooled?
Hyundai and MG will take a decade to match Honda's current technical expertise..
Honda should get a new infotainment system, maybe ventilated seats, wireless charging, wireless car play, foldable back seats, adjustible back headrests, back row USB charging, increased ground clearance, more height and width would also do good for indian market since the fun and dynamics of a vtec manual is gone in this anyways..and why dont hybrid cars get a manual transmission option? and why cant honda make a DSG as well? What is the safety rating of the HONDA CITY since nobody talks about Honda build much? Good to see honda do well in india with adas and good hybrid considering EV charging infra aint good yet and petrol is exp asf. Honda couldve made this hybrid with a cheaper model as well to attract more customers. and how long do u think the hybrid will take to get back the money paid for it and what about servicing costs of it and will it have as good resale as a normal car?
Does that camera fullfills the need of dashcam
You should wait for the face-lift planned some point this or next year. This car.needs an upgrade. VW Vertos and Skoda Slavia are packed with those new features and excellent engines. Comon Honda
How do you convince one to buy this instead of city diesel?
They should get one in base v variant too.
Nice intelligent review
Honda performance is amazing
Does it come in manual transmission
I like everything except the boot space in this car. But still it is very good of being a hybrid
10:23 Beautiful Shot
That’s why Honda City is KING OF EXECUTIVE SEDANS
I think they will price it competively this time around.
What about the km range?
Sir,Hyndai 2022 TUSCON Releace Date india sir.
Please launch hybrid sedans like accord
Honda City is the coolest sedan in affordable price segment
If Honda could have brought this with 4th gen. City & base variant of 5th gen. It would have made more sense.
For all those wondering the steep price..45% taxes on hybrid engines as on date compared to 5% on EV..its inevitable that prices will have to come down and realise we are not yet ready for EV..for now both are expensive parlour trick.
Honda should get the city hatchback and add same EHEV in WRV
It's good, but for the price it commands, you are better off with other "Diesel" options! Considering all it has a better fuel efficiency on petrol since the emissions are BS6 compliant and no benefits there!
What is the Battery capacity 🔋?
Just wow honda 👍
Will I get hev in Jazz
Honda is again making a blunder by not releasing the advanced safety features on the ZX CVT to take on Slavia/Virtus. ZX e:HEV will have very few takers.
With heat rising every year, ventilated seats should be available with every car.
Honda is good company. Truly wants to provide value to Indian customers.
hope it will launch in indonesia
it's a shame that this car didn't come in the RS trim like the international version of it.
Honda and Toyota are going in the right direction - hybrid
Never understood why people keep the headlights on during the daytime
According to me, considering it's proper hybrid unlike ciaz wannabe hybrid, it delivers almost similar fuel efficiency when we compare with ciaz. I was expecting around 30kmpl from proper hybrids when cars like ciaz can give 20kmpl and then we are paying premium.
🔥
Bit costly from a mileage /cost recovery perspective. But Actually they are trying to reduce emissions while still delivering ample power as tighter and stricter regulations will result in lesser powered and more emission controlled engines. So to compensate power loss they need electric motors. And we should also take some responsibility by spending some more amount if it helps in reducing emissions.
Pricing will be key of these hybrid technology
Wow...you managed to find a Science teacher to review this car! :D
Final effort from Honda to survive in India
