The Honda Amaze has always been a very important product for Honda Car India Limited ever since it was first launched five years ago, in 2013. It was Honda's answer to the best-selling Maruti Suzuki Dzire and Honda's subcompact sedan model. And now, Honda has launched the all-new, new-generation Amaze in India at a starting price of Rs. 5.59 lakh. In fact, Honda has already started the production of the new-generation Amaze in the country. The car was first showcased at the 2018 Auto Expo and did garner praise with regards to its looks.

We have already driven the new-generation Amaze and were impressed by the features and the performance of the car.

Honda has also increased the length of the new-gen Amaze by 5 mm. At 3995 mm, it is still below the 4-metre mark. As a result, the wheelbase too gets an increase by 65 mm and is measures at 2470 mm. This translates into more space for rear passengers. Of course, the new-gen Amaze gets a tonne of features, especially on the top-spec variants. Also, the petrol variant of the Amaze is now 17 kg lighter than the previous generation model. Honda will have four variants of the Amaze, which are E, S, V, and the top-of-the-line VX. Unfortunately, the CVT will not be offered on the top-spec variant.
