Most Helpful Review

Reliable predictable and consistent performance

I drove this car to Badrinath , Really enjoy the driving it's movability and engine is really very smooth Very good car If you drive between 60 to 70 km/h We get average 20++ AC is very effective

Dream Car

My First car was Opel Astra which I drove for a year, currently i am driving Opel Club. Believe me - I am in love with this Opel brand. Today if you want to buy a second hand mid-size car- Opel is THE best. In 1.5 to 2.5 lakhs you can get the best. Mind you it original cost during early 2000 used to be somewhere around 8.00 to 12.00 lakhs. Dont go by stupid valuation of some car web site. I have test driven many car in this category. But hardly any of them matches the grace, quality and pick up of this beauty. Spare parts might give you trouble but you may still get it.  Excellent grip & pick up, smooth drive, beatiful look, spacious & comfyexpensive spares, interior not jazzy but good

Honda City Long Term Report: Introduction

By Jay Shah11 May 2024

First launched in 2020, followed by a refresh in 2023 with sharper styling, additional features, and an advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) suite, the Honda City has landed a spot in our long-term fleet. Sedans are a rare breed here, so this widely popular choice piqued our interest, especially in the new ‘Obsidian Blue’ paint.

2023 Honda City Petrol AT First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre09 Mar 2023

This is the latest iteration of the Honda City, a successful three-box sedan still going strong after more than two decades. It's still this fifth-generation avatar introduced in 2020 but gets some more updates. The most important ones are an RDE-compliant engine and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Look closely, and you'll see the elegant exterior design exudes a sportier character thanks to the revised bumpers. These are tastefully done and look like extensions with a carbon fibre look. The grille mesh pattern is revised and there's a new addition of this Obsidian Blue Pearl exterior colour that looks fantastic.
