Honda's rule changing City reaches new heights
MANILA, Philippines - Honda Cars Philippines Inc. recently announced 71.5 percent sales growth for its Honda City during the first half of year 2009. According to the report released by the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI), total City sales from January to June reached 4,393 units, a significant increase from last year’s sales of 2,561 units. Out of the total 8,683 units Honda sold for the year, 51 percent are City models.
With City sales averaging to 3,400 units per year, the 4,000 unit sales mark just for the first half of this year indicated a new milestone for the City.
Essential in attaining such feat was the entry of the 3rd generation City in January. With cutting-edge styling and technologies, the City has indeed reshaped the industry standards for its class. It simply changes the rules on how subcompacts should be like.
If you log on to www.citychangetherules.com, the first thing that you notice is the innovatively aggressive look of the City. The Honda City has a masculine and dynamic look that acquired inspiration from an “arrowshot” design. The sharp front mask is formed by a continuous design motif running from grille to headlights. The exterior of the City reflects a tense look and dynamic energy of a drawn bow ready to fire. The higher belt line promises a roomier interior. The City’s aerodynamic curves tell of structural design that does not cut into the space, comfort, or luxury of the interior. The wonders of modern engineering just never cease.
The City’s design is more than aesthetically pleasing. With safety in mind, the Honda team has made sure to deliver the most value for one’s buck. Its safety features include an ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), EBD with BA (Electronic Brake Force Distribution with Brake Assist) and dual SRS airbags (except for 1.3 A).
