By RIZAL JOHAN | 24 August 2020


PETALING JAYA: Now you can take a closer look at the all-new Honda City as it starts a nationwide tour starting Aug 29 at Sunway Pyramid mall and Tesco Cheras in Selangor.

The car on display will be the top variant Honda City RS i-MMD in Passion Red, which will make its world premiere in Malaysia when launched, which boasts an entirely new electric powertrain capable of producing 253Nm and includes the Honda LaneWatch camera system and  Electric Parking Brake (EPB) among other things.

Unfortunately, you can only catch the exterior as the interior is off limits until the launch. We have however speculated what may or may not be featured in the top-specced RS.
