Like the old Honda City, the next-gen Honda City will be offered with a 1.5-litre i-DTEC turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine as well, but in upgraded, BS-VI version, not the BS-IV version. Moreover, while the diesel engine is offered with only a 6-speed manual transmission in the old model, it will be available with even a CVT in the all-new model. What remains to be seen is if the BS-VI diesel engine is introduced at launch or a few months later.
