of the Honda Griez sedan, which is based on the Honda City.
The exterior of the Gienia was previewed
by the Honda Concept B. It gets a bold Solid Wing Face with chrome

engine with 128.6 hp and 155 Nm of torque. It will be paired with a
5-speed manual gearbox as standard, while a CVT option will also be available.
