Overview
The Honda City is a five-seat B-segment sedan for buyers who want a conventional four-door with front-wheel drive and automatic transmission. The range starts from RM84,900 for the 1.5 S, with petrol versions using a 1.5-litre 119 hp drivetrain and the e:HEV RS bringing hybrid power.
City in 2026 — what's new
The Malaysian Honda City carries on into 2026 in its existing GN2/GN3 facelift form, with 1.5 S, E, V, RS and e:HEV RS variants. Thailand receives a 2026 update with a 10-inch touchscreen, while other 2026 overseas facelifts add items including a 360-degree camera, ambient lighting and ventilated seats. Those changes are not part of the stated Malaysian range.

Which variant to buy
Start with the RM84,900 1.5 S if price matters most: it has the same 1,498 cc, 119 hp petrol engine, CVT and five-seat layout stated for the E, V and RS. The RM89,900 E, RM94,900 V and RM99,900 RS need an equipment-list check before spending more, because the mechanical specification is unchanged. Pay RM111,900 for the e:HEV RS only if its 205 hp petrol-hybrid drivetrain and eCVT are priorities.

Honda City buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The City keeps the brief simple: a five-seat B-segment sedan with a broad choice of petrol and hybrid powertrains. Its entry point sits above the Nissan Almera, but below the Toyota Vios and MG 5. Higher petrol trims and the e:HEV RS move beyond the stated price range of those three rivals, so the specification needs to justify the extra outlay.
