It is a very good car to own for long terms with a long praised and established ownership experience from hundreds of owners in Team Bhp.<\/p>\n<p>I really liked your final decision criteria &#8216;It&#8217;s Honda, what can go wrong&#8217;. I too made this decision on 21st August and took the leap to buy the exact same variant in Pune. Felt so good to see this gorgeous-looking machine in pictures &amp; to read the awesome features of the current generation of the city from another buyer&#8217;s point of view. this affirms the decision I made while choosing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>I have a few additional observations\/wishes based on the minimal driving I have done in the past 2 months, these are similar to those reported by other owners:<\/li>\n<li>The car ride becomes jerkier between speeds of 30-40 kmph.<\/li>\n<li>Tires are definitely skinny, but the lack of traction is only felt on high-speed maneuvers, unless one is in spirited driving mode, skinny tires don&#8217;t make any issues for sedate drivers.<\/li>\n<li>However, the NVH levels are horrible( compared to my previous car). For this reason alone I would upgrade to softer rubbers of the same size.<\/li>\n<li>HU sounds Just fine in my opinion &amp; an upgrade is definitely required. I being an audiophile probably will go for an overhaul of ICE in the coming days. but for a normal listener, the door damping and addition of a regular subwoofer will do the work.<\/li>\n<li>Another simple way to improve the listening experience is to play music directly from a USB drive. Honda HU supports FLAC music files which is equivalent to lossless music files. HU sounds much better this way. find music in FLAC format and enjoy the music.<\/li>\n<li>The front seats are comfortable, however, I feel the lack of better under-thigh support and adjustable lumbar support.<\/li>\n<li>My car came with a wireless charger unit as well. it works well but eats up the front cup storage. so it&#8217;s resting in boot space for now.<\/li>\n<li>We need a height adjustment passenger seat in India. I feel I am sitting on the floor when my wife is driving.<\/li>\n<li>The high beam throw is unimpressive. It hardly illuminates the road in the distance. this is probably due to it being an all-LED unit in the ZX variant. lower variant may report it better which has yellow halogen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Combined it&#8217;s all Pros and cons It&#8217;s a very good car one should buy if long-term peace of mind is the primary criteria. if someone is looking for driving pleasure and fun, they can look elsewhere<\/p>\n<p>Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/news\/2-months-5th-gen-honda-city-9-points-can-be-improved\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Combined it&#8217;s all Pros &#038;
