Carrying additional weight, such as full passengers o r heavy luggage, can indeed affect the Honda City’s fuel consumption. The more weight the engine has to carry, the harder it works to maintain speed and acceleration, especially in city driving conditions. While the Honda City is relatively light compared to larger sedans, carrying a full load of passengers can cause slower acceleration and reduce overall fuel economy. To balance practicality and efficiency, it’s recommended to avoid carrying unnecessary weight and keep the car’s load to a minimum for optimal fuel performance.
