Honda plans mild makeover for City
Automobile blogs based out of Thailand, a hot market for Honda products, have started reporting on the Honda City mild makeover expected to debut by October. To ensure no misinterpretation - there will be no drastic redo on the exterior.
Subtle changes to the front fascia, tail lights, bumpers and wheels are obvious. A display that gives out real-time fuel consumption data is expected to make an appearance. Other relevant additions will be appreciated, but we're puzzled about which ones will make the cut. Interior upholstery can upgraded and minor changes to the dashboard is another prediction.
Honda revealed a City concept car two years ago in Australia sporting LED lamps and new wheels (pictured). Inspiration for the City facelift should most likely come from there.
Honda has said that its compact diesel engine won't be seen till 2013 so that pretty much puts an end to the powertrain debate. The existing 1.5-liter petrol mill that drums up 118PS will remain shoe-horned under the City' hood.
What do you think Honda should do with the new City?
