The limited-run Honda City Sport Edition has been launched in India at Rs 14.89 lakh (ex-showroom). Based on the mid-spec V automatic variant, it is Rs 49,000 more expensive. For these added bucks, it gets a few cosmetic enhancements both inside and out for a sportier appearance.
Honda City Sport – What’s Special?
Being a limited-run special edition model, the Honda City Sport features blacked-out treatment for the ORVMs and boot spoiler. Additionally, it gets a redesigned grille and grey-coloured 15-inch alloy wheels for added appeal. There’s also the “Sport” badge on the tailgate to denote its special nature.
The black theme continues inside the cabin as well, featuring an all-black dashboard with a contrasting red trim, along with a gloss black finish for the AC vents. It also features red ambient lighting and black leather upholstery with red stitching.
Honda has offered it in three body shades: Radiant Red, Metallic Platinum White, and Pearl Meteoroid Grey Metallic.
Other than these changes, everything else remains the same as the V variant of the standard Honda City.
