Is the power good enough? 10 extra horsepower but 50KG heavier than previous city... With torque converter, there is more power loss than CVT
go check out dyno, the +10hp comes at end of high RPM, means u hav to rev kao kao the +10 only come out....basically in power term, not much dif from current VTEC in daily driving...
exclude of CVT in malaysia market is a loss for malaysian
in fact taken with good care, CVT durability is jz like other transmission
still not sure how smooth the 5AT will bring yet of comfortness, or the "ohm" ppl always look for...
certainly, if u look at how jazz progress to new jazz....
city to new city is a cheap thingy, not really much improved...
u might see good improvement in some point, but see some fallback in another...
there is more Honda can do or put in here....
wont comment if the price is justifiable, but if one can wait, should wait for facelift....there is still room for improvement for this new city...
