Honda Cars India is gearing up to unveil the third-generation Amaze, with teasers building anticipation for the compact sedan over the past few weeks. The official debut is set for 4 December 2024, and ahead of this much-awaited launch, exclusive details about the car’s variants and features have surfaced.
Variants and Engine Details
According to insider information, the new Amaze will be available in three variants: V, VX, and ZX. Under the hood, it will retain the tried-and-tested 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, paired with either a five-speed manual transmission or a CVT gearbox, offering a balance of performance and efficiency. While the sedan’s overall dimensions remain consistent with the previous model, the width is reportedly increased by 33mm, enhancing its road presence and cabin space.
Feature Highlights
The ZX variant, which will be the range-topping model, comes packed with premium features such as:
- All-LED lighting for enhanced visibility and style.
- Rear AC vents to improve passenger comfort.
- Wireless charger for hassle-free charging on the go.
- Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for seamless connectivity.
- Lane Watch Camera and a rear parking camera to assist in safer driving.
- Six airbags and an ADAS suite (Advanced Driver Assistance System) for improved safety and convenience.
Despite the impressive feature list, the new Amaze will miss out on some desirable additions like a 360-degree camera, ventilated seats, and a sunroof—features that are increasingly becoming standard in this segment.
Expected Pricing
Although the exact pricing remains under wraps, industry speculation suggests that the new Amaze will have a starting price similar to the outgoing model. However, the fully loaded ZX variant with ADAS is likely to command a premium, positioning it slightly higher than the current top-end variant.
The third-gen Honda Amaze is shaping up to be a strong contender in the compact sedan segment, blending proven mechanicals with modern features to appeal to urban buyers. Stay tuned for more updates as we approach its December launch!
