Honda Amaze 1.5 VX i-DTEC

Exterior Good colours, nice compact shape, nice alloy wheels, rear is good. Orvms are good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Features are not much good, no in car entertainment, only f.m or ur own selected music in ur pendrive or aux connectivity, no bluetooth, no dvd player, space in front dashboard is very less, you cant keep anything more than a cars own papers and f/a kit, comfort level is good only if you are travelling alone or three average people in car, over weight or healthy people more than two effects overall performance of the car.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is 100ps 1.5 id tech which company claims to be the most fuel efficient engine, which is a big fraud, this vehicle never gives the accurate mileage which is shown in its mileage trip meter, its actual mileage is not more than 17.7, top speed if u are talking about which can never exceed to 150 km/hr, this is the biggest failure in this vehicle, this is mileage was noted on delhi to bombay throughout the highway nonstop in 19 hrs of single man drive, embarrasement was hitting highly when Swift diesel over takes you on expressway @ 150 km/hr above and hitting mileage of not less than 20km/l throughout this highway. The mileage meter shown in this car is just a show piece, before every drive you reset it and keep noting the reading on a piece of paper like we use to do in old Maruti 800's or Fiat (pal), on every trip it shows mileage more than 25.8 if you drive it at the speed of 60-75km/hr, but express ways are not made to drive at 60 or 80 km/hr, one tend to touch above 100 because speed = distance/time and time = $$ money so if u have more excess time than you may ride at 65 km/hr and wait for the meter to claim mileage of 32km/l also I've waited and even got the reading till 29 km/l which company straight away refused &said that this is not possible, I have clicked some images also, and another thing, once u top up the fuel tank reset the mileage meter and stand on idle with a/c on for half n hour or more the mileage meter will come down to as low as 1 km/ltr. So the mileage meter is just to satisfy you that u drive slowly and it may show above 22 or so, and belive me every time you go for a mileage test in company, they will immediately reset the mileage meter and drive car like on a test mode very slowly and in 5 minutes the meter will show you above 19 kn/l in city and they will say that this is the mileage this vehicle is giving in city and on highways it will give more. Power wise this vehicle is good initial power is good, but u are stopped at 150km/hr where a swift desire 1.3 ltr 70-80 bhp takes hthe gold medal and etios liva ( toyota) goes till 170 km/hr and gives you a mileage of an unbelieving 23 km/ltr. With a mix driving of speeding and eco. Over all 2 ** for honda on mileage.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is very much amazing as its name, you can have cutting and edges at 150 km/hr, front suspensions are awesome, pickup is good, all over ride is ok.

Final Words I have a daily run of 150-200 kms, this is a comfortable car but not as promised and challanged by company, my discs and breaks have been replaced twice in 20000 kms and one year, Toyota Etios Liva I got replaces in 45000 kms in 18 months, breaks have some problems, I am looking for a change in Honda Jazz id tech. This car is not so good, I have 5 vehicles  starting from 800, Etios(Liva), Ritz diesel (major lack in breaking), Toyota Innova (d4d), Honda Amaze i-dtech.

Areas of improvement Breaking system, mileage meter and of course mileage and rear suspension, an upgrade to music system is also a mandate. Breaks.

Front suspension , control , Air-conditioning.Very poor mileage, zero breaking system, rear shockers are as poor as u are sitting in a cart
