What the ZX+ Petrol MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the ZX+ Petrol MT comes to ₹17,32,140 on the road in Itanagar and ₹19,76,413 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,44,273 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹16.36L ex-showroom this is the fifth of 8 City variants by price, ₹89,000 above the ZX Petrol MT. It is also the cheaper of the two ways into ZX+: the same features as the ZX+ Petrol AT for ₹1.00L less. Stepping up to ZX+ e:HEV from here costs ₹5.00L more and buys all-wheel disc brakes and electronic parking brake + auto hold among 3 additions. Worth knowing that the ZX+ e:HEV is not sold with the Petrol with the 6-speed manual, so the move changes the powertrain too.
More about the ZX+ trim
The petrol flagship: 360 camera, ventilated front seats, a 7in digital cluster and auto-folding mirrors over the ZX.
Honda City ZX+: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT?
- ₹16.36L, ex-showroom. That makes it 5th of 8 by price, ₹89,000 above the ZX Petrol MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT?
- Expect ₹17,32,140 in Itanagar and ₹19,76,413 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,44,273 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT have?
- The Petrol, 121 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 17.8 km/l.
- What mileage does the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT really return?
- 2 independent publishers have measured it at around 14.5 to 15 km/l. The maker's figure is 17.8 km/l, so plan your running costs on the measured range rather than on that.
- What features does the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: 360° camera, Ventilated front seats, Blind spot monitor, Sunroof (Single-pane), Driver display (7" digital) and ADAS (Level 2 (core suite)).
- What does the Honda City ZX+ Petrol MT miss out on?
- The ZX+ e:HEV above it adds all-wheel disc brakes, electronic parking brake + auto hold and regenerative braking, for ₹5.00L more. That is a different engine or gearbox though: the ZX+ e:HEV is not sold with this one.
- Is the ZX+ the right City to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Honda City which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
