Honda City: a compact car with impressive space and fuel efficiency
The Honda City is a well-known model that consistently ranks highly in sales among various car brands. In the Malaysian market, Honda offers five different versions of the City, with prices ranging from RM 84,900 to RM 111,900, catering to a wide range of consumer needs and budgets. It is worth noting that the first four models are gasoline-powered, while the 2023 Honda City 1.5L e:HEV RS is a hybrid model.
Here are the five models available:
- 2023 Honda City 1.5 S:RM 84,900
- 2023 Honda City 1.5L E:RM 89,900
- 2023 Honda City 1.5L V:RM 94,900
- Honda City 1.5L RS:RM 99,900
- 2023 Honda City 1.5L eRS (Hybrid):RM 111,900
Fuel Efficiency and Range
A significant factor for many car buyers is a vehicle’s fuel efficiency and range. All five models of the Honda City are equipped with a 40-liter fuel tank. According to Honda, the fuel consumption for the gasoline models is rated at 5.6 liters per 100 km. This translates to a theoretical range of about 714 km on a full tank, which is quite impressive for a car in this segment. This calculation is based on the fuel efficiency of the gasoline models and does not include the hybrid model.
Spacious Interior
Despite being classified as a compact car, the Honda City offers generous interior space. The standard models, such as the 2023 Honda City 1.5 S, 1.5L E and 1.5L V, have a body length of 4,580 mm, a width of 1,748 mm, a height of 1,467 mm and a wheelbase of 2,600 mm.
For those seeking a bit more space, the Honda City 1.5L RS and the 2023 Honda City 1.5L e:HEV RS offer slightly larger dimensions, with a body length of 4,589 mm. While this difference in size is relatively minor, it does contribute to a slightly more spacious feel in the interior, especially in terms of legroom and overall comfort.
Conclusion
The Honda City combines the compact size of a small car with the spaciousness and efficiency that many drivers seek. With its impressive range on a full tank and a variety of models to choose from, including a hybrid option, the Honda City continues to be a popular choice among consumers looking for a reliable, fuel-efficient vehicle with plenty of space. Whether you prioritize fuel efficiency, interior space or advanced features, the Honda City lineup offers something for everyone.
