Japanese automaker, Honda is all geared up to launch the 5th generation of the Honda City. Previously the all-new and improved 2020 Honda City was scheduled to launch in April but due to 2-month long nationwide lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the brand had to reschedule the launch to June.
According to a new report which has surfaced the internet the new 2020 City sedan could only be launched in 2 trim levels only – VX and ZX which are also the top-spec variants on the model. So is it that Honda is planning on keeping the 2017 model for the lower variants only? As not too long ago Honda had announced that they will be selling both the current-gen City and the new 2020 City side-by-side. What are your thoughts on it, let us know in the comment section below.
