One of the most memorable ways to spend a weekend locally is by doing a road trip test drive. The experience is usually more exhilarating as you get to push a new vehicle; discovering its full potentials and enjoying its exciting drivability.

A couple of weekends ago, I had the privilege to join Honda City Bloggers Drive’s third family road trip to Penang, where I fell in love with Honda City. As you scroll down, I’ll take you through our travels while introducing the special features of this stylish car.
