Honda Cars India is all set to launch the Honda 5th Generation City tomorrow in the country. Earlier this month, the Japanese automaker had introduced the Honda WR-V Facelift and now it is time for their most cherished sedan - the City to make a grand entry. The All-New Honda City is expected to have a starting price of around Rs 12 lakhs, as the sedan will compete against the likes of New Hyundai Verna, Maruti Ciaz, Skoda Rapid and Volkswagen Vento in its segment.

Like the current generation, this one too will offer an electric sunroof. However the noticeable change will be the debut of Alexa remote capability and next-generation Honda Connect with Telematics Control Unit (TCU).
As for the powertrains, there will be both petrol and diesel engines in the offering.
