Honda Thailand has recently launched the new City Hatchback. As you know by now, it largely shares the same specifications as the Thai-spec City, which means it comes with a 1.0-liter DOHC VTEC Turbo engine. The said engine is more powerful than the one on the current Philippine-spec City, and it provides some degree of sportiness for the City and City Hatch released in Thailand.
Apart from the City Hatch though, Honda Thailand released another set of stuff that local Honda fans might drool over. To make the City Hatch more aggressive-looking, the company also released the Modulo body kits and accessories for the said Honda made hatch.

The Modulo accessories include a Trunk spoiler, fender garnish, a rear panel lining cover, alloy wheel stickers, and LED fog lights. Besides the cosmetic accessories, there’s also the drive recorder which functions as a dashcam.
Its camera is mounted seamlessly on the interior side of the car’s windshield. The said camera is priced at 3,850 Baht or Php 6,110. The most expensive individual Modulo accessory, however, is the spoiler. It’s priced at 5,500 Baht, or around Php 8,729.
Like the locally available modulo kits for Philippine-spec Honda models, the one available for the City hatch can be had as a package or as individual parts.

The first package called the Modulo Aero includes two rear under spoilers, two sides under spoilers, and two front under spoilers. It’s priced at 16,900 Baht, or Php 26,824.
The more premium package is the Modulo Aero Sport and it consists of the same pieces as the former, while adding a rear spoiler. In Thailand, this package is priced at 21,500 Baht or Php 34,126.
Overall, the Modulo packages, especially the Aero Sport, can turn even the basic S+ Variant into something that can rival the looks of the RS trims. The spoiler garnish is especially prominent looking as it resembles something that you would see on the thrusters of a Gundam.

That said, the aforementioned kits are only available in the Thai market, just like the Honda City Hatchback – at least for now.
