Honda Cars PH Launches Special Edition City For Its 30th Anniversary

Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) has launched a new variant for the Honda City called the 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition. The City 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition was launched simultaneously alongside the updated CR-V, and you can still see it in the venue until February 10.

Introduced in the Philippine market in 1996, the Honda City was first launched as an exclusive model for the Asian region and has since become one of HCPI’s best-selling models over the years. HCPI has launched three (3) generations, with facelifts and special editions in between, including a City Mugen Limited Edition and the City 1.5 Sport CVT.

Ms. Rie Miyake, president of HCPI, announced at the launch that the brand has sold over 150,000 units since it arrived in 1996. Today, the City in sedan form is offered at S, V, and RS variants, plus the newly-launched special edition model.

The City 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition is available in two versions. For those who want the sedan, it is based on the entry-level City 1.5 S CVT, and is embellished with additional black accents on the doors, grille, side mirrors, and 15-inch wheels. The City 1.5 S CVT 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition retails for P1,039,000.

Meanwhile, the City nameplate evolved in 2021 with the introduction of the City Hatchback as a replacement for the Jazz. It has since sold over 3,700 units, making it a consistent leader in its segment. If you prefer the 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition in hatchback form, it is based on the sole RS variant on sale in the Philippines, but upgraded with sporty touches. These include black exterior badging, a full body kit, a front center garnish, a front foglight garnish, a tailgate spoiler garnish, and a tailpipe garnish. The City Hatchback 1.5 RS CVT 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition is available at a retail price of P1,279,000.

Both the City and City Hatchback 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition variants come in Platinum White Pearl only, at a lower price compared to the customer purchasing this color on a different variant. They also sport an exclusive 30th Anniversary Pearl Edition emblem.
