Design
The Honda City Sport Edition looks similar to the regular version of the City. However, there are a few subtle design cosmetic changes that differentiate it from the regular City. The most significant upgrades it features are the black front grille, glossy black shark fin antenna, black ORVMs and the black trunk lip spoiler. Moreover, it also carries a "Sport" badge to distinguish it. While the alloys have been painted in a grey shade. This Edition is available in Radiant Red Metallic, Platinum White Pearl, and Meteoroid Grey Metallic.
Interior
Stepping inside, you'll be greeted by an all-black cabin, ditching that beige, heavy layout. While the leatherette seats, door panels steering wheel are enhanced with contrasting red stitchings, adding to its sporty appeal. Moreover, the roof liner and pillars are also finished in black, and white dark red dashboard inserts. The AC vents have been finished in gloss black along with 7-colours ambient lighting, which isn't available on the standard variant. While it carries the same set of features as the regular version, along with the ADAS suite.
