Honda City vs Volvo S60 [2015-2020]

We get behind the wheel of the petrol manual Honda City with ADAS

You could easily say it’s the coolest and the most charismatic Volvo. The brand that has always gotten itself associated with safety and unassuming comfort has been aiming to reach out to more buyers with the utterly luxurious XC90 and more recently, the S90. Now, Volvo India has taken a step forward in a whole new dimension wherein a four-door sedan isn’t purely a luxury tool, but a great all-rounder with supercar-chasing performance and looks to match.

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.
