Overview

The 2018 Honda Amaze has been launched in India with prices starting at Rs. 5.59 lakhs (ex-showroom). Do note that these are the introductory prices applicable for the first 20,000 customers only. The second generation Amaze made its India debut at the 2018 Auto Expo earlier this year and is available in four trims – E, S, V and VX. The Japanese carmaker will also launch the next-generation Civic and CR-V in India this year.

Exterior

In terms of styling, the 2018 Honda Amaze is as different as chalk and cheese when compared to the previous generation model. The front fascia gets a thick chrome grille (called Solid Wing Face Chrome Grille) as seen in other big Honda cars while the design of the headlights and the LED DRLs are reminiscent of the WR-V. The side and the rear profile also see major revisions. The compact sedan gets a new set of 15-inch alloy wheels and C-shaped split tail-lights. Overall, few will appreciate the new Amaze while few will dislike it for its boxy proportions.

Interiors

On the interior though, the new Honda Amaze is much nicer as compared to its predecessor. It now gets a larger 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, called Digipad-2 with both Apple Carplay and Android Auto. It also gets a start-stop button, automatic climate control and as we mentioned earlier, the CVT variants get paddle shifters too. There is also more space in the cabin as compared to earlier and that is mainly due to a longer wheelbase. The new Honda Amaze also gets a fold-down central armrest for the rear passengers and rear AC vents.

Engine Specification

The 1.2-litre petrol makes 90 PS of power at 6000 RPM and 110 Nm of torque at 4800 RPM. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual as well as a CVT automatic gearbox. The oil-burner churns out 100 PS of power at 3600 RPM and 200 Nm of torque at 1750 RPM. The diesel mill gets a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard while there is also an optional CVT automatic gearbox on offer (India is the first market to get Honda’s diesel CVT engine-gearbox combination). The combination of CVT and a diesel engine is a first-in-the-segment.
