HONDA CITY 2008 clear spyshot!!! Civic inspired!
I believe most of us already heard about the rumour of new Honda City since May 2008! On May 2008, i also posted the rumour design and specification of the New Honda City. I believe my blog had the earliest information about this Honda City. =P
-
Below are my previous post about new generation Honda CITY:
Yesterday, one of the Flickr user, wou1wou2 also posted some undisguished photo of the new 2008 Honda City! And since we can clearly see City emblem in this series of photo, we can comfirmed that it is the new Honda City!
-
It prove my earlier rumour on May 2008 that new City will based on Honda Civic's design! Cool i would say! Whats more, it is based on Euro R CIVIC! Personally, i more prefer EURO R CIVIC over our JDM CIVIC.
-
The photo is believed snapped in Thailand's Honda manufacturing plant as we can see a Thai's non smoking sign in the rear shot of Honda City.
-
-
The front of the New Honda City features alot of element found in Honda FCX Clarity and also Civic Euro R! Perhaps it is produced under same designer as CIVIC and FCX Clarity!
-
The new Honda City look much more American with the front grille design resemble the new Honda Accord. Perhaps the front grille design is Honda's new corporate design.
-
-
The headlight's of the New 2008's Honda City resemble the headlight design found in Civic Euro R and FCX Clarity. The front grille of the City is painted in Silver. Perhaps chrome grille will look better, Honda?
-
-
The rear of the new City resemble the aerodynamic line of Civic with a much more conservative tail light design compare to Civic. However, this design is still owesome in similiar category. It definitely score better than the Vios in terms of exterior look.
-
-
Interior wise, the new Honda City provide a conservative yet comfortable cabin look. The center panel design seems abit boring and personally i will prefer the old one. The audio head unit seems abit plain.
-
The air cond control and air cond vent also same like the type found in older generation Civic which is a drawback. However, one of the reason for the center panel being so plain is cost costing to make this City affordable.
-
Besides that, from the picture, we can also see the Honda City is running a conventional type of gearbox. No gate shifter gearbox will be found in this City. However, this Honda City is powered by 5 speed gearbox! Expect improved fuel economy and performance here!
-
-
The meter panel is nicely lit in red! I love red meter panel! Too bad, my VIOS meter panel is in white/blue. ==
-
From the picture, we can also see a new steering design on this new Honda CITY! Its is the same one found in Honda Jazz. Same with Honda Jazz, this Honda City also will support paddle shift function! Enjoy gear shifting manually from your steering when you want to seek a thrilling experience!
-
-
The seat and interior colour trim in this City is in light cream colour! Perhaps we will get dark interior in Malaysia? Since the current Honda City VTEC also in dark grey while Honda City IDSI is in beige. Honda Malaysia, please bring in dark interior.
-
Personally, i think the arm rest on this Honda City is rather too low. We might not able to rest our hand in this arm rest comfortably.
-
-
-
The new Honda City is powered by Honda's latest i-VTEC technology! One drawback on this new Honda City is that i-Dsi variant will be no longer available. In another words, we might not able to buy a Honda City within RM80,000 budget.
-
In some country, the new Honda City will be available in 2 engine capacity which is 1.3 or 1.5 i-vtec engine. Perhaps Honda Malaysia should bring in 1.3 i-vtec variant to Malaysia to make City's price under 80K? Since we could expect the 1.5 i-vtec variant will be 90K region.
-
For your information, the 1.5 SOHC 4 Cyclinder 16 Valve i-VTEC engine in Honda City is same as the one found in the new Honda Jazz which is just launched few days ago. This engine will able to put out 120ps at 6,600rpm and 145Nm of torque at 4,800rpm.
-
-
The new Honda City is also featured a set of 16 inch sport rim! Perhaps this is due to the Honda City are now capable to put 120ps. For your information, too big rim on small horsepower car will directly affect the fuel economy. However, with City's 120 horsepower capacity, pulling 16 inch rim will not be a problem.
-
Besides that, the rear wheel of the new City's also feature solid disk brake! However, we might see rear drum brake on lower grade variant in City when it is launched.
-
So as conclusion, the new Honda City will be Civic look alike and the size is somehow had been enlarged. With i-DSI variant had been removed, we might see the price of new Honda City be at 90K region. However, if Honda Malaysia launch 1.3 i-VTEC variant, the price might be keep at 80K level.
-
The new Honda City are expected to be launched in Thailand in August or September 2008 and also in some other country. While in Malaysia, some Honda SA inform us that it will be available in end of year 2008.
