Review on Honda Amaze Car Interior, Exterior & Engine Quality One of the country’s leading car manufacturers, Magnum Honda Dealers are now retailing their latest car model, the Honda Amaze, a compact sedan similar to the Brio, which is a great family buy. Sharing the same engine with its counterpart, the Amaze is available in a petrol and diesel version, and has an India specific 1.5L oil burner. The diesel engine is manoeuvred by a five-speed manual or automatic gear box, similar to the Brio. While the i-DTEC engine gives out 99bhp, the 1.2 litre petrol engine has a power output at 87 bph. The car’s turbo lag is controlled nicely, and its power can be felt subtly but smoothly on as low as the 1500 rpm. Even for the mid-range, the car has a lot of juice. Engine vibrations are audible in the cabin, although they are kept well in control. To keep the weight low and flow smooth, the engine is made from aluminium. The Amaze is sold by all Honda dealers across Bangalore. It is beautifully designed, and has plenty of similarities to the Brio, such as the three-toned dashboard with the colors in black, brown and beige. The interiors are quite spacious, with large front seats, and driver’s seat being height adjustable. Rear seats afford plenty of space for three decently built adults. The Honda Amaze is built for handling, rather than a bump absorber. Steering and manoeuvring is easy and accurate, even for a novice driver. The low resistance tyres are built for great efficiency and sturdiness, while the brakes have a quick and light feel. This top of the line Honda Amaze comes with all the paraphernalia expected in such a model. It has electrically foldable mirrors, ABS and airbags, steering mounted controls, multimedia system with AUX and USB ports. The Amaze is a great car for the family and is a great buy for the mid-budget car segment. Honda dealers are offering the Amaze at 5.3 lakh for the E variant, going up to 8.4 lakh for the top end model. If you are looking to buy a dependable family car, this is one that is practical and value for money.
