2020 Honda City Scores 5 Stars In ASEAN NCAP Crash Test

The 2020 Honda City has scored a full five stars and 86.54 points in the ASEAN New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) crash test. Currently, the 2020 City is only sold in Thailand. Plans to launch it in Nepal have been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic. ASEAN NCAP has given the City 44.83 points for adult occupant protection, 22.82 points for child occupant protection, and 18.89 points for safety assist technologies. These scores are out of 50, 25, and 25, respectively.

In thailand, the 2020 City gets six airbags and blind-spot visualisation on the infotainment screen. It also has a tire pressure monitoring system, electronic stability control, ABS, and an emergency stop signal. In India, dual front airbags, ABS, and parking sensors are mandatory fitment. The City's advanced safety features are unlikely to be offered on higher-spec models.

The 2020 Honda City looks more angular than the current model, especially at the front where the flat, solid wing face is quite prominent. The chunky chrome bar meets the jewel eye LED headlamps and the three-part bumper is neatly contoured. The profile too looks sharper and a bit tort sporting a sharp character line that starts from the headlamps and merges with the wraparound taillights, covering the entire length of the car. The LED taillights too have a distinctive design with the U-shaped signature light. Honda has trimmed the wheelbase on the new City by 11 mm, despite the overall increase in length.
