honda gets 100 bhp in 1.5l vtec engine that is,bhp:cc is 1:15 while maruti sx4 gives a minor ratio of 1:13.5  


my last call , go for honda cityzx vtec & outperform sx4    


moreover,Honda gives much better looks & mileage as compared to sx4

    You are a baby when it comes to comparing cars.
    In what way Honda is better than the sx4.Can you justify it.
    Look at the features and everything of sx4.
    I'm not saying Honda is a bad car, but SX4 in no way lesser than the Honda.
    Please try to accept the best technology and features which is available on the Indian roads which maruti is giving the Indian customers.

    A recent CNBC survey and comparative analysis, do indicates that SX4 is high in BHP values and so-called other values, but even their over all verdic was that, as a car Honda-City is much pleasurable to drive and on the mileage front, City definately scores better. But, for a highway drive, the SX4 feels more sturdy than the City.

    The word "City" in Honda City tells you everything about the Honda. It's best for city driving but the SX4 beats even the Honda VTEC when it comes to highway driving (and riding) thanks to it's mini SUV lineage....It's the ideal single car to own if you do a lot of weekend getaways along with your daily office commute...

    1.5L VTEC engine is almost a decade old technology, hardly found any other part of the world, Still people belive that Honda gives the best !!!!!
    Check what honda offers for eurpoe or US all their petrol cars uses i-VETC which is an advance technology, and dump all obsolute ones to Indian customers .....
    SX4 offers the latest technology...

    Its becoming very difficult for me to decide between City and SX4.
    I agree to RAJ that the engine and tchnology being used in CITy is found nowhere in the world except ASIA. THey removed the i-DSI engine from their international market 8 years ago

    I am sure that SX4 is a value for money with better features, City no doubt a good care but it gives you toy feel, ZXI and GXI is not comparable with Sx4 , just 77 Bhp, and SX4 is 102

    for VITEC, you end up paying 1.5 L more with no extra features. Fuel economy , yes there is little difference , Honda may give little better but one should also look at ride quality on long distances , Sx4 wins

    Dude i think so ur a first time car user or maybe u dont even own a car,feeling so sorry for you........1:13.5 when comparing with 1:15 is not comparing 1 with 1000............people who own Honda just try to show off,my friend who owns a Honda is very sorry for owning a Honda cos its giving him n number of troubles.......Honda ppl are selling the city jus 4 its brand name,when u pay close to 9 Lacs the customer should expect Airbags ABS+EBD n Automatic Climate control,Not just a 100bhp engine

    I have taken a test drive of sx4 ...its a amazing beauty....for this rate u will not find so many features...it have got more then what a "c" segment car have in India...i m buying a sx4 today i find Honda really good but every second person owns a Honda and there is nothing new about it sx4 looks new trendy and sporty.. the drive is smooth and the comfort is superb....value for money car sx4

    But the the only strong problem in SX4 is that it gives near zero back view which is very important for backing up. Imagine you are reversing your car in front of a school at school closing time.

    Well after going through all the reviews and comment i think Honda Gives you everything you are looking for style,brand,mileage,comfort except value for your money which the Sx4 is giving by throwing in ABS,Airbags, Climate control, Leather seats,Audio control on steering etc.

    hey i think Honda remains a Honda no matter wat...
    Bt al u guys who r lukng fr value fr money n long highway drives den must Go fr SX4...

    The biggest drawback of SX4 is it's poor quality gear box as compared to smooth shifting gearbox of Honda City.Except gear box problem which is common in all Maruti vehicles SX4 is ok for buying if you want cost effective car.If your budget is liitle more Honda City is a good buy over SX4.

    hi sakshi kya haal hain & hws ur mopid wrking .,

  18. on 13 Apr, 2008 at 06:00 PM Sakshi

    Brijb i think you are not updated on the same that Honda is still using the old technology which is complete failure in European markets.

    I have read al the reviews and feel that there are serious fans out here for both cars the SX4 and The City.Firstly to put things in perspective after having driven both cars extensively.THE SX4 is a far bigger and sexier looking car than the Honda City.It is got the M SERIES ENGINE which is the latest technology and 16in tyres with a 102 bhp more powerfulengine than the honda city vtec 100bhp at 1,20,000 cheaper onroad price..,i think the consumer is smart enough to decide what to buy:))

    Sx4 has got several advantages over Honda City like much more powerful engine - 102BHp to 77 BHp, latest technology to an outdated one, much more ground clearance, Airbags, EBD and Automatic Climate Control and more attractive price tag. Honda City scores on mileage, but to break-even the price difference, you need to use the car for so long that you may probably change it by then

    I am deeply confused between SX4 and Honda City. While i am inclined towards SX4 ,every now and then one person or other would suggest to go for Honda City. I am told SX4 has a problem of almost a blind view while taking a 90 degree turn on account of its frame... Can some one give an idea about rates of paid services for SX4 as well as Honda City ???

  22. on 07 Oct, 2008 at 03:14 PM Saurabh Vajpayee (New Delhi)

    SX4 beats Honda City anytime. City uses an outdated engine which has been disused in all major countries. SX4 boasts of a new and amazing G series engine developed recently by Suzuki. I'd go for an SX4 any day!!!!! No matter how much City may relaunch itself its still an outdated model
