The L version features upgraded LED headlights, while the RS version includes a 10-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. These locally assembled vehicles reached dealerships in mid-October 2026. In the Philippines, Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. has launched the 2027 models of the City and City Hatchback. These updates include 16-inch alloy wheels, clear lens taillights, and a larger 10-inch display audio system. While retaining the 1.5-liter i-VTEC engine rather than adopting hybrid powertrains, Honda claims fuel efficiency of up to 25 km/L. The Honda Sensing safety suite is included as standard on most variants.
