Last November, Honda Malaysia announced that total deliveries of the new Honda City had reached 5,100 units, a month and a half after it was launched. Around 7,900 units have been added to the overall total in the three months since then.
According to the company, it has now delivered close to 13,000 units of the fifth-gen sedan as of February. Comparatively, this continues to put it ahead of the Proton X50, which was launched later in the same month, but the SUV looks to be closing in, with 3,345 units delivered last month, making for 8,141 units in total since its launch.
All City deliveries to date have been made up of the three petrol variants in the model range, namely the V, E and base S grade versions. Again, there is no variant breakdown of which model is leading the charge for the car in terms of sales, but things should not have veered from the tone set early on, where 54% of buyers had gone with the V.
There is still no sign of the City RS i-MMD hybrid, which was originally supposed to make its market debut in January. We understand that the delay in its introduction is due to some issues with pricing, but this should hopefully be resolved soon.
The City S, E and V are equipped with a 1.5 litre i-VTEC DOHC engine, which offers 121 PS and 145 Nm in the way of output, with power sent to the front wheels via a CVT. The City S is priced at RM74,191, the E at RM81,664 and the V at RM86,561, all on-the-road excluding insurance but with the ongoing sales tax exemption that is in place until the end of June.

If x50 consider fix it left hand turn signal to proper right hand turn signal instead of lazy left hand drive shift to the right. Perhaps …
Not the best looking but I agree as there is a growing amount of them on the road now. Whoever said economy bad during covid? It’s prospering!
Everything will change after Perodua Ativa launch
Finally something refreshing for us locals, how City 1.5l i-VTEC DOHC engine 121PS fared against the new gen Almera Turbo. We know us locals alwiz favoret Turbo enjin. Or Honda NA way superior with that Vtec kicked’in Yo…
What happen for launching City RS??
Very soon we will see all sort of complaints …especially faulty parts do not have stock to replace.
Yes like fuel pump problem right.
The hate is real. At least QC coming out from City isn’t as bad as Proton X50.. so many complaints from customers.
That hate is most probably fake.
Did you mean no stock to replace as if its like no stock of brake fluid in SC?
Siok sendiri. Dying brand
X50 8k, City 13k. DRB-HICOM laughing all the way.
I think the delay is due to lack of chips
saw this on the road more than x50
Wait for March 10th, price of City RS will be released.
Honda not affected by covid meh? Why Proton kept blaming covid for their low figure?
Because Honda did not rely fully on local supply chain. Geddit?
