READ IT-Exactly what you should know!

Exterior

New sporty vibrant exterior looks, boot from outside too looks elegant, windows are very well designed, bonnet though gives more of a hatchback look if looked at from sides (that's where honda saved taxes to bring it down to a compact sedan length and thus lowered the price when it initially started hurting the etios)

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

cabin space above average, seats comfy, head, leg room sufficient, missing some very basic stuff in base models like a simply vanity mirror, dashboard does lose specially in the bottom two models where the 1 DIN audio system has not been placed in the centre and gives a odd look upfront to the dashboard,  instrument panel very basic by today's standards,

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gears

Diesel engine sound is quite average and don't expect a silent engine. Fuel economy is very acceptable and infact if you are a driver who drives with sound judgement, experience and lesser use of brakes and acceleration, you can save a lot of bucks with diesel engines like this one, gears are slightly on the tougher side and could have been better

 

Ride and Handling

Easy ride with hassle free handling, nothing exceptional to expect at this budget but well and truly at par in it's segment.

Final Words

Buy it if your thinking between dezire, sail, etios and amaze. It's as simple as that, it is higher value for money than an etios, much newer and advanced than  a dezire and more vibrant and sporty than a sail if at par with everything else!

 

Areas of improvement  

The car offers you what you should get in this budget. I would say, improve you financial status and buy a City or an Accord rather than asking an amaze to improve..
