Re: Honda Likely To Launch City CNG in October
Honda will be working with the suspensions and they might be re- tunning the engine too even maruti and chevy did that for aveo and sx4 .chexk this .
NEW DELHI: Honda is all set to roll out a CNG variant of its City sedan in the festival season to take on rivals, who have marched ahead due to the presence of a diesel model. After a setback due to rapid dieselisation of car market, Honda feels that a CNG variant will give it a competitive product to take on diesel rivals like Hyundai Verna and Volkswagen Vento.
A source said Honda had been working on the CNG variant for some time and will make a few changes against a conventional petrol-only variant. "The suspension of the car has been strengthened as the CNG tank will be housed in the boot of the car. Also, a few changes have been made to the engine of the car in line with the requirements of a CNG car," the sources said. The instrument cluster on the City could also see some changes to reflect CNG requirements. The car is expected to be out by October.

cng at the back of any car makes car heavy first thing
it feels like a heavy guy is always sitting in your car even when parked
this brings more weight on tyres , shockers and all things combined
also on speed breakers you need to be extra slow because of CNG kit
I don't fancy the idea of CNG kit for a Honda since it eats up valuable boot space as per visran and vaibhav
also driving pleasure is reduced because of the CNG
CNG is a break fix for users who are running daily and petrol is a luxury for them now like me
it's not a permanent solution
