Curiously, the spec sheet lists the all-new City with two lengths - 4,549 mm and 4,569 mm, though this could be due to different bumper designs.

Honda City India Thailand
Length (mm) 4,549 / 4,569 4,553
Width (mm) 1,748 1,748
Height (mm) 1,489 1,467
Wheelbase (mm) 2,600 2,589

These figures suggest that the India-spec Honda City has different lengths from the Thailand-spec car.

Under the hood, the made-in-India Honda City won’t be fitted with the sophisticated 1.0-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder engine – instead, the upcoming Indian version will be fitted with a 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine. The petrol engine will be mated to a CVT-type automatic.

Closer to home, due to changes in the tax structure and Open Market Value (OMV) calculations, the launch of the all-new Honda City could be postponed to late-2020/early-2021.
