For the first time, ever since its inception, it would be launched in diesel fuel trim along with the regular petrol models.
The deliveries of this highly anticipated sedan are supposed to commence by mid January 2014. Auto-freaks were curiously waiting for it, and when it finally arrived, there excitement and enthusiasm was on Cloud Nine.

Honda has come up with the most spacious cabin with ample legroom, headroom and shoulder room. It has assembled almost every comfort feature inside the cabin to maintain the plushness and aristocracy, that it is known for.

Honda has countered the scenarios of constant increase in petrol prices as well as the inclination of people towards diesel cars quite efficiently by launching the fourth generation Honda City in diesel fuel trim as well. It is the first time that Honda City would be available with diesel fuel trim, sporting a 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel mill. This powertrain is also performing duties to Honda's another entry-level sedan, Amaze. Apparently, Honda officials have also announced that the new City would have best in class fuel economy. In addition to this, its reduced weight would also contribute to better mileage.
Honda is continuing this sedan in petrol fuel trim with the 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine. This petrol mill, too, is quite fuel efficient and when it was first introduced with the first generation Honda City, it won numerous hearts with its agility and tenacity on any surface. Honda has never compromised on driveability of its vehicles; same is the instance with City as it provides exceptional driving experience with lightening fast acceleration and amazing handling. This is the main factor contributing to Honda's golden run in the Indian automotive market.
The all new Honda City 2014 will take the Indian auto sector by storm; no matter it will be lined up against the likes of Hyundai Verna, Fiat Linea, Ford Fiesta, Maruti SX4, Volkwagen Vento and Skoda Rapid. It will definitely get benefit of the goodwill and legacy that it gave birth to, among people, while it was firstly launched in India way back in 1998. However, the battle will certainly be tough as the other sedans also are no flukes. Hence, it would be interesting to watch whether Honda tastes the same success this time around also, which it tasted years back when it launched the third generation of Honda City in the Indian auto arena.
