3rd Generation Honda City

I wanted to write about my new Honda City for a long time. Here it is...

The 3Generation Honda City was launched in October 2008 in India (after its first launch in Thailand). It has new arrow shot design that makes it look like Civic at the first glance. I got this beauty on Nov 26th.

By this time there are many Citys running on Bangalore roads. So, its not much fun to write about the features of this car. I will write about my experiences. This model of City has got an bigger wheels which helps in increased ground clearance. With just two people in the car including driver, any bump can be easily negotiated. With 3 in total, you need to be careful at certain bumps. With four passengers, you have to be careful all the time when there are speed breakers. After two three weeks, you will know this yourself and also the bumps which you can handle with some speed.

Eversince I got this, I have been filling Shell Super Petrol and I have been getting a mileage of 13KMPL in city traffic with occassional A/C. With all the time A/C and bumper to bumper traffic it drops to 8.5 KMPL (As shown on the dash board).

Just comment if you have any questions on this car and I will be happy to answer.
