India-spec Honda City (facelift) may arrive soon with updated features
What's the story
Honda has updated the City sedan in the Malaysian market. It is possible that the same updates may be introduced for the India-spec model in the coming months.
The Honda Sensing suite, which comprises Level-2 ADAS functions, is now a standard feature across all variants, along with six airbags. Currently, the India-spec City offers ADAS from V trim.
Although the updated car features minor tweaks to its design, it retains the existing powertrain options.
