    2023 Honda City expected prices

    The Honda City will be launched in its refreshed avatar on March 2 in India, while the facelifted City Hybrid (e:HEV) is expected to go on sale on the same day. A few leaked images and details have already suggested what’s likely to be on offer with the update, including new base variants for both the regular City and City Hybrid . Many dealerships are also accepting offline bookings for the sedan. With various variant details already known to us, these are our variant-wise expected prices of the both petrol-only model and the strong-hybrid version.

    But before we take a deep dive into the expected variant-wise prices, let’s check out the powertrain details of the facelifted sedan:

    With the facelift, the sedan will no longer be available with the 1.5-litre diesel powertrain (100PS/200Nm). The City Hybrid also gets a 1.5-litre petrol engine with a 0.7kWh battery pack and an electric motor.

    The facelifted City gains features such as wireless phone charger, ambient lighting, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and the most important one: advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Introduced by Honda on the City’s hybrid avatar, the safety tech will now be offered with the regular petrol sedan as well. Furthermore, it will be available with the manual transmission.

    With the update, Honda will introduce a new base-spec SV trim for its compact sedan. It will be the only variant to not get the CVT option. The CVT variants will likely continue to command a premium of Rs 1.3 lakh to Rs 1.4 lakh over their manual counterparts. One of the main reasons for the top-spec ZX trim to be costlier by Rs two lakh over the VX is down to the inclusion of ADAS. This will include features like autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane assist.
