I called up a Honda dealer in Delhi, for purchasing a ANHC AT and to my surprise, the salesman I talked to, said the AT model is discontinued and that a new AT model with a complete different dashboard, music player and other changes would be available in 3 months time. So, instead the salesman was pitching for the MT model.A new variant for the City is supposedly in the pipeline. There are now 3 months+ waiting periods for both the Civic and the City at the dealership here. You can get cars currently in the stockyards in Cochin and TVM, but that's it. Perhaps Honda could also launch the Jazz AT and price it a significant lower price than City AT.
