2008 Honda City Review

The special ‘arrow shot’ design gives this vehicle a striking and racy character. Its design is not complicated and Honda has kept things simple which works well.

The triple-slit matte black grille, muscular wheel arches, and windscreen pillar look very nice. It is a handsome-looking car with sharp lines and important features like the thick waistline and the parallelogram-shaped headlamps.

The interiors do not seem to be completely rebuilt. The steering wheel has been lifted right off the Civic. Also, there is a clear demarcation of the lower and upper halves of the dashboard with a different shade for either half.

Additionally, the quality of materials used is exceptionally good. The center console also has a silver finish.

It has enough storage space and there are plenty of cubby holes. There is an air of spaciousness, ergonomics are brilliant and the interior space is more than that of rivals.

On the top-of-the-line trim, you get fog lamps, alloy wheels, and beige upholstery. Also, the newly launched Exclusive variant comes with a leather-wrapped steering wheel and chrome door handles leather seats.
