Overview
- Honda Cars India officially unveiled both vehicles on May 22, 2026, with City deliveries starting immediately and ZR‑V completely built unit deliveries scheduled from July 2026.
- The 2026 City facelift keeps the same 1.5‑litre petrol and 1.5‑litre strong‑hybrid e:HEV powertrains but adds a redesigned front fascia, a 10.1‑inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats, a 360° camera and Honda SENSING Level‑2 ADAS.
- Introductory City pricing runs roughly from ₹11.99–12.00 lakh (ex‑showroom) for the base SV petrol up to about ₹20.99–21.00 lakh for the ZX+ e:HEV hybrid, with hybrid availability limited to the top ZX+ trim.
- The ZR‑V e:HEV will arrive as a CBU flagship powered by a 2.0‑litre Atkinson‑cycle engine plus dual‑motor hybrid system that Honda rates at 184 PS, 315 Nm and a claimed 22.79 km/l.
- Honda said India is one of its top three global focus markets and plans multiple launches this year, and it is offering extended hybrid warranties as it tries to nudge buyers toward more efficient, higher‑spec models.
