Furthermore, it features Bluetooth connectivity, conveniently located steering-mounted audio and calling controls, as well as USB/AUX connectivity, among other functionalities.

Additionally, it provides features such as auto collision notification, tow alerts, locating your vehicle, and creating a valet profile. The system also includes health and malfunction indicators. Moreover, it supports compatibility with smartwatches and integrates with the Hey Siri voice assistant for added convenience.

To enhance parking safety and ease, the Toyota Rumion is equipped with Rear Parking Sensors and a Rear Parking Camera. The Rear Parking Sensors, utilizing ultrasonic technology, are discreetly integrated into the rear bumper. They detect obstacles behind the vehicle and alert the driver with a warning sound as the vehicle approaches objects. Simultaneously, the Rear Parking Camera, mounted at the rear of the car, provides a live video feed of the area behind the vehicle on the infotainment system's display.

The all-new Kia Sonet introduces refreshing tweaks to its appearance, featuring a bold design overhaul at the front. Crown Jewel LED Headlamps take centre stage, enhancing the vehicle's aggressive and robust road presence. The addition of Star Map LED DRLs further accentuates its stylish exterior. Notably, the Sleek LED Fog Lamps are exclusive to the GTX+/X-Line variant, while ICE-Cube LED Fog Lamps adorn the HTK+, HTX & HTX+ variants.

Redesigning the in-cabin experience, the new Sonet showcases a tech-oriented dashboard with a Dual Screen Connected Panel Design. The Full Digital Cluster, equipped with a 26.04cm (10.25”) Colour LCD MID, pairs seamlessly with the 26.03cm (10.25”) HD Touchscreen Navigation.

Features include Front Collision Warning (FCW), Front Collision Avoidance Assist Pedestrian (FCA-Pedestrian), Front Collision Avoidance Assist Cyclist (FCA-Cyclist), Front Collision Avoidance Assist Car (FCA-Car), and more, ensuring enhanced security during every drive.

Kia reinforces its commitment to safety by introducing standard 6 airbags in the new Sonet, setting a benchmark in the industry. Following the trend set by Carens and Seltos, Kia continues to prioritise safety, making it the youngest brand to offer all its products with 6 or 8 airbags in India.

The Bolero Neo+ comes with a 9-inch infotainment touchscreen that takes care of all the multimedia needs.

For easy access to music and calls, the Mahindra Bolero Neo+ comes with steering-mounted controls on the left-hand side of the steering wheels.

For a more efficient fuel-efficient drive, the SUV comes with an Engine Start Stop mode. When engaged, it automatically shuts-off the engine at a traffic signal and turns it back on when the clutch is pressed.

The Bolero Neo+ comes with the practicality of armrests for both the fron as well as the second-row passengers.

In the 2023 Hyundai Verna, the digital cluster with a high-resolution TFT display is a fully digital instrument cluster. This display can be tailored to show various information, including your speed, engine revs, fuel level, temperature, odometer reading, and trip data. Furthermore, it can also provide more in-depth details like your vehicle's performance, fuel efficiency, and reminders for maintenance.

The 2023 Hyundai Verna comes with a unique feature – a switchable infotainment and climate controller. This feature allows the driver to use the same set of dials and buttons to control both the infotainment system and the climate control system. You'll find these two dials on the centre console, just below the 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment display.

The 2023 Hyundai Verna comes with a top-notch Bose Premium Sound system with 8 speakers. This audio setup provides excellent sound quality that immerses you in your music throughout the car. The system includes eight high-quality speakers positioned in just the right spots to create a surround sound effect. These speakers are powered by a special Bose amplifier that's been fine-tuned to match the Verna's interior acoustics.

Honda City Fourth-Gen To Get Discontinued Soon In India

No More Honda City 4th Gen, Jazz And WR-V In 2023 - Details

The older Honda City model still looks fine despite not being as stylish as the most recent generation. The City 4th Gen features a bigger grille up front with a suitable wide chrome strip running across it. The revised, more muscular bumper gives the car a more modern appearance, and the sleek LED headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights. 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, which still look fine today, are among the highlights of the side profile. The pre-facelift last-generation City had 15-inch wheels, which were changed with larger ones with the introduction of the facelift. This has to be mentioned. However, there is no chrome on the door handles since the top-spec trims of the automobile are no longer offered.

Wrap-around taillights are present on the rear end. Even the casing for the licence plate has LED lights, and the lighting units have LED fixtures. With a honeycomb inlay near its lower end and a dynamic style, the rear bumper is fairly substantial. Overall, the old City&#39;s design feels timeless even in today&#39;s world, and its aesthetic appeal is at least on par with that of its arch-rival, the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz.

While the last generation Honda City does not look as special as the latest model, it is still a handsome-looking car that impresses with its clean design and some sporty touches on various sections.

The interior, akin to the exterior, isn&rsquo;t all suave and modern like that of the latest-gen Honda City but the cabin of the last-gen car does impress with the practicality on offer as well as the quality of materials used, especially when you take into account the attractive price point at which this car is being sold at.

It is also well designed, with excellent features like several cup holders, various cubbyholes, and touch controls that are easy to use for the air conditioning. All controls are within easy reach of the driver thanks to excellent ergonomics. Even the chairs have strong backs that keep you in place even during sudden directional shifts. There is considerable room available in the front and back, and the driver may easily find a comfortable position by adjusting the seat&#39;s height. Even with three people on the bench seat, there is adequate room for the back passengers&#39; shoulders and legs. The rear air conditioning vents also guarantee that the interior cools down more quickly in the heat. The Digipad 2.0 lacks Alexa and Google Assistant capabilities compared to the new-generation device but supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

<picture><source media="(max-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-interior.png?width=360&q=70" /><source media="(min-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-interior.png?width=900&q=70" /><img alt="" src="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-interior.png?width=360&&q=70" width=900 height=600 loading="lazy"" /></picture>

The grouses here include the touch-sensitive controls for the aircon, a feature that has not been included in the latest City. A simple reason for this omission on the newer model is that these controls aren&rsquo;t all that easy to use and one often needs to glance away from the road and focus on the touch panel in order to achieve the desired setting. Also, the blue-backlit speedo console has started looking a bit dated. Plus, the tall occupants would wish for slightly more rear headroom.

While the cabin of the 4th-gen Honda City does not feel special anymore, it does manage to impress with the practicality on offer.

The 4th generation City is only available with the 1.5-liter iVTEC petrol engine, which produces 117.3 bhp of power and 145 Nm, while the diesel engine type was withdrawn from the market even before the release of the most recent model. Additionally, this time around there is only a 5-speed manual transmission available; there is no CVT option. The powertrain is incredibly polished and enjoyable to drive as usual. It even gives a respectable 12&ndash;13 km/l in the city and up to 19 kmph on the highway in terms of fuel efficiency. The NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) might have been somewhat better regulated, but this could just be nitpicking on our part.

Both passing high-speed traffic on the highway and dealing with speed breakers at sub-20 kmph speeds in second gear are reasonably doable with the right amount of forethought. This engine has a little less power than the most recent City, but in practical terms, the few additional horsepower the new motor offers is not noticeable. The last-gen City is actually still among the fastest to tow a tonne and doesn&#39;t falter even much when it comes to high-speed performance.

<picture><source media="(max-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-performance.png?width=360&q=70" /><source media="(min-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-performance.png?width=900&q=70" /><img alt="" src="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-performance.png?width=360&&q=70" width=900 height=600 loading="lazy"" /></picture>

While slightly down on power as compared to the latest City new petrol engine, the 1.5-litre iVTEC motor of the last-gen model offers a good mix of performance and fuel efficiency.

Honda Cars India has consistently been able to achieve a solid balance between the ride and handling qualities of the City since the debut of the first-gen model back in 1998. The suspension in the City hits a decent chord between stability and comfort. The ride is smooth and capable of handling the typical Indian road well in most driving circumstances. It is also stable at high speeds. Most of the time, the ride quality remains excellent, and on the freeway, the car seems stable. On severe undulations, however, the shock absorbers frequently bottom out rather rapidly. Fortunately, the 165 mm ground clearance keeps you from scratching the undercarriage on rough roads.

The Honda City will, in most situations, provide you with excellent driving comfort and light steering that makes navigating through traffic quite simple. Even at dead centre, the steering is rather precise and doesn&#39;t seem shaky. But if you&#39;re in the mood for some high-speed apex chasing, it plays spoilsport because it remains light even at high speeds. Overall, the last-generation City lacks the refined dynamics of the previous model, but for the money, it&#39;s still a decent bundle.

The last-gen Honda City does not offer the sportiest handling characteristics or even the most comfortable ride, but it does manage to strike a good balance between the two extremes.

According to the automaker, the 4th generation Honda City&#39;s &#39;ACE&#39; body structure, which is constructed of High Strength Steel and Advanced High Strength Steel, provides excellent crash protection.

The City is built with your safety and the safety of your automobile in mind. The City receives a number of safety features, including Impact Mitigating Headrests, an Immobilizer with Anti-Theft Alarm, and Rear ISOFIX Anchors and Tethers. Additionally, it has an ABS system, a multiview rear parking camera, and dual front airbags. But unlike before, the top-spec ZX grade of the fourth-generation City is no longer offered, therefore side and curtain airbags are no longer an option.

<picture><source media="(max-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-safety.png?width=360&q=70" /><source media="(min-width: 640px)" srcset="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-safety.png?width=900&q=70" /><img alt="" src="https://images.91wheels.com/assets/content/images/Honda_City_2017/city2017-safety.png?width=360&&q=70" width=900 height=600 loading="lazy"" /></picture>

While not the last word in safety, the strong structure, together with the handful of active and passive safety features, should offer a high degree of protection in an unfortunate event of a road accident.
