Overview
This latest Honda City is the fifth generation, where the first model was launched in 1996. Both cars from Honda have received several updates, including in the features section. You could say the presence of the latest Honda Civic RS and City sedan is quite surprising because the public knows there is a possibility of the emergence of several non-saloon models from the Honda brand.
The presence of the latest Honda City in the Philippine automotive market will certainly bring changes to various sectors, especially in the exterior sector. This can be seen from the new design that is so elegant and dynamic on each side of the body. On the other hand, for engine performance, this car still relies on the 1.5 liter SOHC i-VTEC engine which is known to be capable of producing quite fierce power. Not only that, the features are also embedded to support safety such as the braking system on this latest Honda City which already relies on ABS technology with EBD.
