Why do many Honda City owners complain about poor interior build quality?

Some Honda City owners in Pakistan report that the plastic dashboard, door panels, and trim feel hard and less premium compared to competitors like the Toyota Yaris. Does the local assembly impact the interior material quality?

A common complaint among Honda City owners in Pakistan is the use of hard, low-quality plastics in the dashboard, door panels, and trim. This issue is often attributed to the local assembly process, where cost-saving measures result in the use of cheaper materials compared to international models. While Honda aims to provide a quality product, the competitive pricing of the Honda City in Pakistan leads to compromises in interior materials. Compared to competitors like the Toyota Yaris, which uses more premium-feeling plastics, the Honda Citys materials can feel less refined. This difference in material quality is noticeable, especially when considering the overall perceived value of the car.
