The Honda Amaze was launched back in 2018 and till date it is one of the top sellers in the Japanese carmaker's line-up. It's quite an evolution over the predecessor and Honda did a good job in overcoming all small shortcomings of the outgoing model in terms of refinement and performance. It has also evolved in styling both on the outside and inside, and is well equipped as well, though misses out on few features like wireless charging and rear air-con vents that its latest rivals like the Hyundai Aura offers. Here are the top highlights.
Exterior
The Honda Amaze comes with proper three-box proportion, bold styling, and strong character lines that accentuate the overall design of the car
In terms of design, the Honda Amaze is completely different as compared to the first generation. While the design is a little conservative, buyers appreciate the balanced look the car has. While you do get 15-inch alloy wheels on the top of the line variant, the Amaze loses out on the likes of LED headlamps or even projector headlamps. Diamond cut alloy wheels like the one on the City could have made it a nicer package too.
Interior
Honda Amaze's cabin has also been extensivly updates with new styling and interior
On the inside, the new Honda Amaze is much nicer as compared to its predecessor. There is also more space in the cabin as compared to earlier and that is mainly due to a longer wheelbase.
