Honda Amaze: The SENSIble Sedan

HCIL’s (Honda Cars India Ltd.) sale of 5.8 lakh units of the Amaze in a little over a decade, in India, stands testament to all those buyers who appreciate engine technology and know exactly what to expect from the Japanese carmaker. We recently drove Honda’s 3rd generation Amaze – CVT and MT – which has been developed by the Honda R&D Asia Pacific Center in Thailand, and we’re happy to report that this compact sedan is an incredible offering especially now that it also gets Honda SENSING (ADAS) technology thereby earning it the title of “India’s most affordable ADAS equipped passenger car.” Take a bow, Honda. One thing that Honda does really well is win hearts with its design; and the Amaze, which is being marketed towards aspirational buyers, sure ticks all the boxes out there, especially when it comes to its style quotient and compact packaging. The classic 3-box design – a much-loved body type of several sedan fans across the world – works brilliantly for the Amaze’s ICE engine, thereby offering buyers the comfort of the familiar and the traditional while still bringing its A-game to the table, that of being a performance-oriented sedan and a mighty reliable one at that.
