(Dan Tri) – The RS version of Honda City 2023 costs 609 million VND, the most expensive in the segment, but also the only model in the B-class sedan group with adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation brakes…
On July 4, Honda Vietnam introduced the mid-life upgraded version of City (facelift) to consumers.

During this upgrade, the Japanese automaker attracted attention when it `aggressively` equipped Honda Sensing driver assistance technology on all three versions.
Compared to its `elders` Civic or CR-V, Honda Sensing on City only lacks the ability to follow the car in front at low speeds.

Other safety equipment includes 6 airbags (RS) or 4 airbags (G, L), electronic balance, hill start assist and a 3-angle reversing camera with improved display quality.
Users can distinguish between City 2023 and the previous upgraded version through the honeycomb grille with thinner chrome decorative strip.
The RS version only has a red `RS` logo attached to the grille and trunk lid, LED fog lights, a small spoiler integrated on the trunk lid and some sporty gloss black paint details.
The lighting system is supplemented with an automatic on/off feature.
The wheels have a new shape, with a diameter of 15 inches on the G version or 16 inches on the L and RS versions.

The overall length of the vehicle increased from 4,553mm to 4,580mm (G and L versions) and 4,589mm (RS version), while the remaining parameters remain unchanged.
The City 2023 cockpit has many upgrades such as: an analog dashboard combined with a 4.2-inch TFT color screen, an 8-inch touch screen with higher resolution and support for Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connection, 4
The RS version is supplemented with contrasting red stitching in many areas, red panels on the dashboard and the Honda Connect system that allows the owner to monitor and control the vehicle remotely via smartphone.

Under the hood of the City 2023 is still a 4-cylinder gasoline engine, 1.5L capacity, naturally aspirated with a maximum capacity of 119 horsepower and maximum torque of 145 Nm, combined with the same transmission.
City has a quite successful first half of 2023, in the context of a declining car market.
The attraction in recent months to Honda City comes from the company’s continuous incentives, and dealers also offer promotions to push products.
