That remains to be seen. It is up to the Honda Malaysia product planning team to choose the interior colour. The current City has two interior colours – black for the VTEC and beige for the i-DSI. However with the current City there is no more i-DSi engine, only an i-VTEC SOHC engine.

Thanks for the quick action, Paultan. Appreciate.

One more question: Will the interior be all black for cushion especially? Something like the vios, can choose 2 colors. I like black because easier to take care. Hehe, thinking of getting another brand but too bad, the interior all are in pitch color.

Hope you can comment. Thanks.

By the way, paultan, can i get your confirmation whether the above picture shows the real coming honda city? Any price increase or still the same? I am in the mid of deciding to buy new car or just wait for this city, getting car loan with old rate, so really want to know the news if can. Thanks.

Paul Tan says: yes confirmed, if Autocar India is right. i actually have a physical copy of the magazine and have read the story inside… Honda India actually confirmed it is an upcoming model of theirs (but obviously cannot admit it is the City in particular).

one city = one waja/persona + mod + I.C.E + misc. you made waja/persona sounds like more expensive than city. as for me, hell yes i’ve been waiting for ages for this new city. i pray my current car dun break down on me yet b4 it arrives.

I hope this isn’t the new city. If it is, I’d rather save some money and get a waja or persona.

The front looks like the new Honda Freed. So Honda Freed ~ Honda Jazz.
Honda Jazz ~ Honda City !!!!

the door profile i.e. the door curvature, looks more korean, aveo siblings? i’d prefer the current design over this one. it looks cheap.

if this is really new city, i’d be dissappointed. honda moves from extraordinary design (love or hate) to become a normal, average design, in which a fresh auto designer can come out with. even T.Chin can come up with better design i believe (promoting “T.Chin”, hehehe).

KL-ATR ,
U are rite, the current City is the sedan version of Jazz, but IMHO the upcoming City will not be based on Jazz anymore.

looks more flowing than the current one, and the rear could easily pass as a toyota

Quite surprising that they have decided to make so many changes to what basically is a sedan version of the Jazz! The grill sure looks like the new Accord, sharp and neat but the rear reminds me of the previous Vios. I hope it’s just a disguise.

Wow…its really impressed!!!I could say, from side view and mascular front view of this new city, it will be much much much better compare to Vios!! side view until its rear, somehow more to BMWish…while, its rear lamp shape also similar to BMW 3series + Old vios…do you recognize that the front view is similar like 5doors Honda Civic UK? + Honda Airwave + Odyssey? If like that, no doubt, it will hit the market. Wondering the interior?? any pic??

The rear looks ugly… or is it because of the disguise. I believed the rear light design is similiar to the one on the Honda Insight/FCX Clarity. The front looks sharp & neat.

But hopefully, it will not be as odd-looking as the current City, especially from the side view. I used to called the current City as ‘Electric Iron on Wheels’. The rear C-pillar & bonnet design really spoil the City.

Hmm…

There are a few points that i would like to highlight on this car. The front view does look like a Honda.

However, the back and the side profile of the car doesn’t look like Honda’s design cues. They look more like Toyota’s. The black portion just in front of the side mirrors, which curves up, looks like the one on the Auris. Then the rear part of the window above the rear door handle, which curves up, looks like a Lexus design. And for the back view, it looks somewhat like a Vios, and unlike the sharp, straight lines which Hondas are rather known for.

Just my 2 cents.

It has some of the new Accord cues. And really a new platform from the new Jazz. If we look it at certain angles, looks like a Toyota somewhere.

I believe the new Honda City will not be released not at least until mid next year, 2009 as the company would need to first launch the new Honda Jazz around Sept ’08.. If you had taken notice all the car launches from Honda, whether it is City, Accord, Civic, etc, the timeframe between them is at least 6 months apart. You can also refer to Wikipedia for the year and types of honda launches in Asia.

Good news is that, Honda Jazz and Honda City will share the same platform of engine mated with 5-speed auto or manual with further powered horsepower to 120HP.
