The spy shots also revealed sporty inserts near the fog lamp housing. The City facelift could also get new diamond-cut alloy wheels and side skirting.

There are no spy shots of the City facelift’s interiors. The City already offers a good set of features on the inside, However, with the facelift, Honda could add features like an updated touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless phone charger and ventilated front seats. Apart from that, we do not expect any change in terms of space and comfort with the new City.

In terms of powertrain, the City facelift is likely to continue with the current engine options. These include a 1.5L turbo diesel engine, which produces 100PS of power and 200Nm of torque, and a 1.5L normal petrol engine that puts out 121PS of power and 145Nm of torque. While the diesel engine comes with a 5-speed manual, the petrol engine comes with a 6-speed manual and CVT transmission options. Honda also offer a strong hybrid option with the City that offers 126PS of power and a claimed fuel efficiency of 26.5kmpl.

Hyundai will launch the new-gen Verna in India early next year with new features and bigger dimensions. Skoda will also launch a special edition of the Slavia with sporty inserts and updated features in 2023.
