Honda City - Generation 4.1 (2003-2005)

HONDA CITY (2003-2005)

Redesigned for 2003, the City gets new engines and a flexible interior thanks to the ULT feature. The 1.3 engine came first, with a 1.5 followed suit. Do take note that a Full Option model with dual airbags and ABS brakes exist, which means that models with these items may be hard to find.
