Here’s What Each Variant Of The 2023 Honda City Brings You

The 2023 Honda City is here and it brings with it a few styling revisions and feature additions. But while the former isn’t as prominent, its brochure has been given a lot of new equipment that bolsters the premium appeal of the City. The facelift has also added a new base variant to the compact sedan’s lineup (one for petrol and hybrid each) so here’s what each grade of the new City packs:
