SV Price and Specs, Honda City

The SV sits at the bottom of the Honda City range, and it uses the 1.5 litre i-VTEC petrol engine with a manual gearbox. That engine makes 121 PS and 145 Nm, sending drive to the front wheels. It seats five and carries the lowest City price, so it is the cheapest way into the sedan.

For the money you get six airbags, covering dual front, side and curtain, plus an 8 inch HD touchscreen. The claimed mileage is 17.77 kmpl. What you do not get here is the Honda Sensing safety suite, adaptive cruise control or alloy wheels, all of which start on the V trim above it.

Choose the SV if you mainly drive in the city and want the City name, its roomy cabin and low running costs without paying for extra kit. If you cover regular highway miles, step up to the V, which brings Honda Sensing and adaptive cruise for safer, easier long drives.
