The history of the Honda City dates back to 1981 when it was introduced as a 3-door hatchback/2-door convertible, sold only in limited markets. Honda had dropped the City nameplate in 1994; therefore, reviving it in 1996 as a four-door sedan inspired a radically new look and efficiency. This third generation of City was constructed on Honda's Global Small Car platform and had this unique under-seat fuel tank that enlarged interior space. Through the decades, with further generations coming up, the City has evolved in design, fuel efficiency, and technology.
