Honda has introduced a new limited-edition variant of its popular midsize sedan — the City Sport — priced at ₹14.89 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Positioned just above the V CVT trim, the City Sport is available exclusively with a CVT gearbox and brings a host of cosmetic enhancements both inside and out. Mechanically, however, it remains unchanged from the standard lineup.
What’s New in the City Sport?
Exterior Updates
The City Sport stands out with a sportier appearance thanks to a range of blacked-out elements. These include:
-
Blacked-out front grille, boot-mounted spoiler, shark fin antenna
-
Black-painted alloy wheels and ORVMs
-
A unique Sport badge on the boot
Buyers can choose from three paint options:
-
Radiant Red Metallic
-
Platinum White Pearl
-
Meteoroid Gray Metallic
Interior Enhancements
The cabin continues the dark theme with:
-
Black leatherette upholstery featuring red contrast accents
-
Red trim on the dashboard, door pads, and steering wheel
-
Gloss black finish on AC vents, with the roof and pillars also finished in black
Features and Equipment
The City Sport builds on the V CVT variant and adds:
-
7-colour ambient lighting
-
Leatherette wrap on the seats, steering wheel, and gear lever
Standard features carried over from the V CVT include:
-
8-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay
-
ADAS safety suite
-
Keyless entry & push-button start
-
Paddle shifters, front fog lamps, and auto headlamps
However, it misses out on some equipment offered on higher trims, such as:
-
Sunroof
-
Rear AC vents
-
LaneWatch camera
-
4 tweeters (gets only 4 speakers)
-
7-inch digital instrument cluster
-
Auto-dimming IRVM and auto wipers
Powertrain: No Changes Under the Hood
The City Sport continues with the 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine delivering 121hp, paired exclusively with a 7-step CVT. This engine-gearbox combo is already offered across most of the City lineup.
