Guess I’ll need to allocate some funds for soundproofing liao...

Yup especially the rear wheel well.

I havent test drive almera, not sure about its NVH, but driving City 70km/h over water pond the noise is so scary lol.

NVH have never been Honda strong suit

Reminds me of my Alza first batch... really tin kosong, the car so noisy, ppl started complaining to Perodua, later batches Perodua did up some soundproofing...

but generally:

1. it does way better than previous GM6 (30% I feel, and also according to the SA).

2. the noises only come from the tires, at high speed the wind noises and traffic noises is all fine to me.


My friend's Civic also, the noises coming from the tires when high speed cruising, I was surprised then, but now I accept that is Honda's "characteristics"

I only have my SIL's GM Hybrid to compare, and hers was relatively quiet though. Not sure if the "quietness" extends to the regular petrol GM6...

definitely cannot compare hybrids to petrol car, battery and electrical motor are the main characters there

Agree it's better than GM6. The doors do not feel as hollow as well.

What about the ride? Does it go through bumps as harshly as GM6? I'm highly considering this new city but I'm very particular with NVH & ride comfort after my experience owning perodua car lol, heard GM6 has bad NVH and ride and awaiting comments on latest gen before deciding

I haven't driven a GM6 for some time. My memory of it is it's not as refined.
We upgraded the car from an ageing Myvi. It's a different league in terms of NVH and ride.
Best thing to do is to test drive for yourself - try all the B segment cars back to back and see what is acceptable to you. Vios has always been the benchmark for NVH and ride comfort for this segment. The trade off lesser PS on the engine.

My dad bought me a used City GM2 facelift. I'm the person who loves car with great nvh and high comfort, this car is quite opposite because of its harsh ride,loud tyre noise and stiff suspension system hahaha. But at least it has VSA and better handling compared to vios dugong, so give and take lor.

anyone knows the color significance around the left and right side of the speedometer?

like green for low RPM and red for high RPM or is there any other significance?

Green - 15-30km/l
Red - 0-15km/l

how about white?
