Apologies for the delay. Honda only recently started giving out test cars to the media, and there wasn't much we could do during the FMCO :( glad to be back though!
If not mistaken, the door hinge has 2 step feels is due to design. Designer don't want the door without stopper fling open when let go. Also to mke sure driver or passenger dont fling open the door when exiting... For motorcycle and others car safety
Just traded in a reliable Vios for this new kid on the block. Great city car and so much more fun to drive. Great suspension and performance for the price minus all the trappings you mentioned at the end of your video. Looking forward for the arrival of the City Hatch RS which is a technological marvel in the 21st century. I'm sure it will be more than worth its price of 106k under real driving conditions!
Between RS and the basic City, if for me to choose will be the normal city. Upfront saving helps alot. And city is not fuel guzzler..those savings enough for many years of fuel, roadtax, and insurance covered, maybe servicing too. Hybrid also weaker resale value.
Just bought this car this year. Have a lot of problems with the window. After raining, the window is wet after winding up and down 24 hours after rain. Now it makes a squeaky noise because of the water inside the car door. After servicing, nothing could be done about it.
The off-centre head unit & air vents placement doesn’t align to gear console etc, which I find it weird looking, they had to go this extend to make driver feel spacious, I guess? You are right about the wheel arch padding, they look half finished and cheap...
Ya, it is weird the centre head unit and air vent knob are not in center, instead they are more on front passenger side. Most of the time the infotainment if not in center it should near to driver rather than passenger. This new City is absolutely weird on this part. Sorry but the new City look weird compare to previous gen both inside and outside.
went to showroom to try this car out before, video doesnt mention that the front passenger foot rest area is quite odd, has a 45 degree slope so can be quite tiring on long journeys. also not sure why V spec gets single tone rim but the cheaper E spec gets dual tone and that dual tone looks nicer
Is the reversing lamps, 3rd brake lamp & turn signal lamp LED? Some cars has LED headlamps, DRLs, LED tail lamps & LED fog lamps but use halogen bulb for turn signal & reversing lamp. I think what matt means on fully LED lamps is for all lamps.
It is better if all City variant equipped with Honda Sensing. Very useful and more safety.. we can at least avoid from hitting car in front of us if emergency braking situation. It is really useful..
Agree..I hv to reconsider just because of that..come on Toyota put the safety features to the all variant..even myvi have them..this just show how Honda is not a people car..if they think about their customer, safety shd be their highest priority
The new City design was a bit better,the car rear looks like it has a proper length for the boot space making it looks like a proper looking sedan from the old one with shorter boot length that almost looks like hatchback.
I have an issue with my 2021 Honda city. When I'm on the highway once I reach about 80 KMPH I can feel like the car is being blown away, particularly the back of the car, I thought my alignment was off but when I got it checked out they said everything was fine. So wondering if I'm the only one that experiences this or not? This is my first car btw and I'm new to the car world
My family bought one of these, this is my most disliked car in the family, feels floaty and unstable, even more milo tin feel than the saga, everything feels cheap and nasty. I would much rather take the keys of the Yaris when I need to go out.
The city is getting too huge, same size as Civic FD already. Good overall upgrade tho. But its getting less and less reasons to upgrade to a civic now.
That is a 3 cylinder engine. And the valvetrain runs on timing belt in oil. People here buy City for reliability and low maintenance, this 1.5L engine use timing chain.
The new Vios is the all rounder. It has all the bells and whistles even in the mid spec. Even the mid spec got all LED lights, better proportion, sportier looks compared to this dull looking City. I guess the speedometer in the vios more modern than City but he said the other way round.
@@fakhrulasyraf14 no honda sucks when they don't even bother to put the safety features to the "cheaper" variant..even the cheapos myvi have a better safety features..what a joke
imo this the variant you should buy over the RS. The RM105,950.45 asking price just isn't worth it. with that price you should just go for the base model Civic 1.8 S
Bro no need to repeat boring opinions la, RS is for people who used for for daily drive and superb FC, and more suitable as a second car and not the only car in a family, and also better handling than V spec as well
sad to see most of the b segment or any segment review doesn't even mention the Proton, X50/ Persona in this case which the only national brand, being wayy affordable doesn't mean it's uncomparable, not to mention iriz is faster than almera turbo which cost rm40k more expensive
i can agree all but he said meter cluster look better than ANCIENT VIOS????? DUDE WAKE UP.... it have an OPTITRON DISPLAY thats way better than City's one, it looks almost like A segment Saga meter cluster.... come on Paul Tan you guys better than this.....
LOL at least we (Malaysia) have better car specification compare with Indonesia...and Malaysia is the earliest country who got a honda city RS immd hybrid
I have been waiting for this full review by paultan for ages. Thank you.

Imagine coming in everyday to see if there's full video instead of shorts for the past 2 months.
Good review from Matthew 🥳 the new City looks great, looks more mature and looking like its older brother Honda Civic 😂

That actually makes sense 👍🏼
improved alot in terms of presentation. 👍🏻
Lol turn up the equaliser treble and the sound is good.🤣
Yeyey akhirnya paultan release juga honda city 2021🥰🥰🥰
"Two exposed nuts ; wait that didn't sound right"
I literally had the same reaction. Lol. Props to Matt the good presentation as always.
Yes, talk about natural humor!

Long term review of your ownership please. How's the QC and after sales service?

Finally a real video. Bored of all the edited press videos and #shorts.
Damn, It's just not fair. Your get better car than we get in the Philippines. LED headlights, fog-lights, seats, What Honda sensing??... Grrrr
okay the problem now im not watching the car , im watching the guy who review this car the whole time erm
Finally we're back 😭😭

Yeah.. agreed on the looks . Gm6 look more sportier..
bro, why wear mask when nobody around u. would have been clearer without the mask
Brainwashed... 🤣🤣🤣
To avoid stupid comments.
Vios gr comingg soon? I’m waiting 🥳
3:24 Yes, I've seen a Civic on a roadshow once, and the door is so stiff that it takes some effort to open it
Maybe Honda wants to emulate Continental cars.
Honda QC so bad
Its been a year now to own this new City, no regret

Latest vios facelift also all LED lights
Vios 2021 have Toyota Safety Sense.
Even e Spec got full led

Betul. 50/50 Vios or City. Attract with Vios due to safety meanwhile City due rear vent aircond and space. Selesa untuk anak duduk belakang.

Excellent attention to detail in the review 👍
Great reviews 👍 I like from Phnom Penh Cambodia

Nissan get me your hybrid also. Make the market lit.

After some times. A fresh start for new normal after 9 months MCO.
Great review.
I prefer this new rear redesign. Wouldn't have looked at the City otherwise.
Almera looks, City power output, Vios driving dynamics would make a good all-rounder
Vios driving dynamic?
honda city has better dynamics than toyota vios
+ persona handling = perfect car
Yes! Spot on! The door issue both my civic and city having this cheap feeling... Proton Iris mc 2022 probably my next choice to replace city
Dont but proton u wll hate ur life haha.
Thts a downgrade… the cvt n power window issue will haunt u for 9 yrs😂
@@wantedstudioz3553 I love my 2022 saga

How was ur car after ,1 year?
My family bought one of these, this is my most disliked car in the family, feels floaty and unstable, even more milo tin feel than the saga, everything feels cheap and nasty. I would much rather take the keys of the Yaris when I need to go out.
Still very stiff rear suspension setup, it is not comfortable for our local roads.
Nice sharing 🤗🤗🤗 awesome 😍😍😍 car
Next review form Hafiz 😀Paultan BM 🙈
Nice car and good review 👍🏻👌🏻
The city is getting too huge, same size as Civic FD already. Good overall upgrade tho. But its getting less and less reasons to upgrade to a civic now.
how can a city cost 100k? Malaysians are getting ripped apart with the price.
The door is not an issue
Nice Sumo, bro. Wear it in good health!
I'm waiting for the launch of the hatchback version
what watch are u wearing
It’s a Seiko Sumo SBDC069 🙂
I think it is seiko prospex
Finally……new video..
I will wait for BRV
Why every single of reviews car they did not down the seat 😔
Im looking for more space like ultra seat being flat seat
The HUGE horizontal bar chrome near the front grille is ugly compared to the proportion of the small car.
Is there no demand for the 1.0 turbo city in Malaysia? Same HP as this, but 173 nm torque.
That is a 3 cylinder engine. And the valvetrain runs on timing belt in oil. People here buy City for reliability and low maintenance, this 1.5L engine use timing chain.
why is there constant video game shooting sound in the background??? 🤣🤣
very good way presentation .
Wait is the 1.5 (S) - the standard model, come with the lcd display audio?
sadly no
V top spec patrol variant tau
Thank you
In abroad there's a 6 speed honda city manual
Next city RS immd please
Should have the Turbo engine .
Boss beter take v spec or s ?
just few months owning it, the car started to produce noises from steering and front chassis! You will regret it.
I already paid booking money, if i cancel can i still get my money?

@@y.khangkok2691 all can give their own opinion
Sorry but the interior looks pretty outdated already and i think that it’s fair to say that the Perodua Ativa has better and funkier interior.
Hi Matthew, is that Seiko?
Hi Ghaz, yes it is! A blue coral Sumo, SBDC069
I don't think that Honda City worth more than 100k price tag. Just not worth it. Might as well go with Honda HRV.
Might as well get a honda civic. I dont like the hand brake lever. Feel like im driving a lorry.

What’s this guy on about the door hinges?
i though this saga new model.
Pak... now only review. Sien alr. Wait hrv la
City the best ❤️😝
Looks like Proton Saga lol
The rims are ugly

The AC vents are just too ugly; they're like an afterthought.
The previous generation City GM6 is way better than this
Nope this new one better..
Because got covid, dont you know?
I am Jayden
Matthew is too hot and handsome for this review omg 🥰
3:39 the review ends here. Car doors are something we deal with a few times a day and his comment sums up the entire review.
U r alone y wear mask 😂🤣😂🤣
U think u like a diva..pergi la mam.......i DONT care.....
Then ? Showing the car because you a rich? 😒😒
This only review of the car child..
Indonesia already have new Honda BRV while Malaysia still talking about City...mundur kok
LOL at least we (Malaysia) have better car specification compare with Indonesia...and Malaysia is the earliest country who got a honda city RS immd hybrid
The car was launched a long time ago in Malaysia. But they couldnt review because of the Lockdown. So they are just reviewing it now.
So what? Kau mampu ke nak beli
mundur? orang indonesia miskin cari kerja di malaysia. mundur kok...
Why are Indonesians and Filipinos the same? Insecure? 🤔
