No matter how slow you are driving but when VTec revs and revs and cross 6000 rpm you know what's gonna feel like 😂😁

VTEC is such an amazing invention tho no one wouldve thought of using 2 types of cams in an engine to have both economy and speed when you need it

Even i was thinkin the same😆😆 literally he jus pulled em up 😆🤮

[@binorobin]

Autocar one request, please pitch New Honda city against decade old Honda civic(2011). That would be interesting. I understand old Honda civic is one level above but to see two vtech cars decade old apart will be a Nail bitting experience to watch.

Guys please do the drag race between Hyundai i20 turbo imt vs Tata Altroz iturbo❤️❤️

[@nish8824]

i20 is the winner.. But altroz is ❤️

[@johndavidson3424]

Hyundai I20 turbo DCT vs Tata Altroz iturbo(DCT), would be better. Note : Cause Hyundai's IMT sucks, its just to slow(slower than a pure manual too).

These drag races are awesome. Thank you Autocar for bringing these videos. My only request is that please upload videos in 60 fps.

[@suryamehta8249]

But we cannot forget that the 1at gen will be not producing the same power figures now as it was when it was brand new.

[@mechcoder_93]

In the 90's they were the OG's😎 vtech is legendary

[@shrinidhibhat]

It took 20 years for Honda to go 1 second faster😂

[@tejashwibhaskar]

That is what even I thought .

[@supermarty1222]

maybe because this is a family sedan not a supercar you dumbass. do you expect them to add 6969 horsepower with every update?

[@pranavp386]

1 sec faster despite harsh safety regulations, extreeemly strict emissions regulations, an additional 200kg weight, better fuel efficiency, better comfort, better refinement and better tech.

[@kostinarain7373]

But sales increased exponentially 🤣🤣..their in the business of daily drivers,not hypercars

[@sahilsharma301]

Yupp 20 years market mai kam kam se kam apna naam he rakhna kaafi hai...aaj kal ke cars competition mai....but still it's the highest selling mid size sedan

[@ankittiwari8503]

My father drove the first gen for 3lac km recently exhanged it in Honda again. Years of trust this brand has.❤️

[@mohnishverma]

Not that bad for the 1st gen city. It certainly surpassed my expectations!

[@srs.shashank]

Old city's engine was almost as powerful as the one twenty years later. Truly it was ahead of it times in the Indian market.

[@kaushikkashyap6487]

Over the period of time old cars tends to loose their performance quite significantly due to various reasons. Before putting it into drag and putting out the factory power figures you guys should've done dyno run to know how much power it has lost during years of use.

[@mattgt5000]

Awesome comparision guys. I remember I had the first gen city in petrol. I used it as my daily driver for years. Let me tell you, in those days if you were a petrol head, Honda city first gen was a excellent choice.

Bhai, don't break that second gear @1:24 hahaha

Please do rolling races after a standing drag race. It really helps to understand how the car performs in real life screnerios where traction isn't a major concern as compared to standing drag race. 🙏

Ya but I have noticed that every second gen is comfort oriented like the 1st 3rd and 5th was performance oriented while the second fourth and sixth are comfort My family had a third gen it was amazing

[@noufaltariq]

For all it's worth the engine after 20 years sure doesn't make the power it once did and still managed a gap of 1 second shows that the city of the past was a true driver's delight as opposed to a practical car of today, I used to look in awe of a blue city when I was kid, didn't know much about VTEC to enjoy the city back then, But the old city looks more stylish on the outside as opposed to the new one, it just tells a message.

A 20 year old car will have a minimum power loss of 10-15 hp from its age …I guess the 1st gen is the winner!
