New pictures of the Honda City emerge in China

There is no surprise on the fact that the new Honda Aria/City will be a new car built over the Fit/Jazz platform. The previous version of the car was just a Fit/Jazz with an added boot, but its first pictures, made in India, show this generation will behave otherwise. Besides India, China has also already seen the new car:



Taken by PC Auto near Chengdu, the pictures confirm the basic lines of the car as very similar to Civic's, what makes it a mini-Civic and may give the new compact sedan the same market success its bigger brother faces in most of the countries were it is sold.

Powered by a 1.3-litre engine that generates 100 bhp and a 1.5-litre that produces 120 bhp, the Aria/City will soon be officialy presented. For Asian markets, it will probably be built in India, while the South American version will be produced in a new factory in Argentina.
