KUALA LUMPUR: Honda Malaysia has secured more than 5,200 bookings for the All-New City Hatchback, which for the first time offers Malaysians a City model in a hatchback body type and equipped with e:HEV technology.
Managing director and chief executive officer Madoka Chujo said the company is confident that the All-New City Hatchback RS e:HEV variant will set the benchmark in the market with its complete package of stylish RS exterior, e:HEV powertrain, Honda SENSING and advanced telematics Honda CONNECT.
“It will be an attraction to customers especially the younger audience,” she said in a statement yesterday.

Chujo yesterday announced the price of the RS e:HEV variant at RM107,783.09 (on-the-road price without insurance).
The car maker said the new City model is designed to be an “Energetic Hatchback” and the exclusive RS e:HEV variant adds a sporty impression to it.
It comes with Gloss Black — Front Grill, Solid Wing and Door Mirrors, to give a two-toned body colour expression.
