Honda Amaze [2013-2016] User Reviews

Exterior Very smart finish with prominent lines from the tail gate, looks quite smart from the rear with large tail lamps. Front is pretty good with dual spoke front grill and also large headlights, over all very smart looking design. The best designing factor is that the boot has been integrated very neatly to the body design and don’t feel odd the way the D'zire looks 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are not that impressive though they could have done a better job however seats are very well designed and comfortable, the best point is that the rear seats are so spacious with an arm rest is a plus point while compared to other models in this segment. Lot of space to stow your water bottles and the front seat is curved from back side to make more room sitting in the rear seat.... they should have provided back seat pouches for storage. The best part is the trunk and it is of 400 liters which is very essential for an average Indian family while travelling out of stations and this is a clear cut advantage over other cars in this segment.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Indeed Performance is very snappy and quick response for a diesel car, however the clutch should have been tad bit smoother (expected from Honda's reputation). Gear shifting is a pleasure and very close and performs pretty well even in the busy city traffic roads. As regards to the fuel economy it is pretty good but not to the promises of Honda but for sure it returns the best in class fuel economy. Fantastic pick up and absolutely no lag in the performance.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is very smooth as accepted and handles very well as the steering response is immense and the turning radius is fantastic. It gives a great feel while driving and never makes you feel that you are driving a diesel car but for the cabin noise

Final Words Very good car but to my feeling it is a bit over priced and they should have considered a better interiors and some latest features like Blue tooth etc.,

Areas of improvement I thoroughly feel that they should have given a push button start in all the variants and also should seriously consider upgrading the interiors. Must add an armrest to the drivers seat for the comfort. They should think of a better music system than that of the existing one. They should have incorporated an airbag at least for the driver.

Fuel Economy is good but not as per the boasting of Honda , Spacious trunk, spacious back seatEngine noise a tad bit louder, no Bluetooth, interiors are just average

Exterior: Good finish and shape. compact in this segment. Wide wind screen.But rear view is limited.Metallic colour is good .easy to clean.Ground clearance is low. care should be taken in uneven surfaces.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)Enough space.Good look interiors... enough leg space,, nice colours. Powerful A/C.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox.Even if a disel engine no vibration atalll. Some sound is there.. But minimum comparing to other diesel engins inthis class.Goor pickup, power, Goodmilage. I am getting 24.5 ./ Gear shift is smooth .Very compact and handy.

 

Ride Quality & Handling: Since vehicle is equipped with ABS good vehicle controll is there. Nice drive.city drive alsso comfortable. Vehicle will move without acclerator in appropriate gears..

 

Final Words: Good vehicle in this segment.CAn sugeest to your friends and relatives..

 

Areas of improvement  : Audio system is poor. When I purchased the vehicle usb port was out of order. It is not repaired till now( i purchased it one month back).

 

 

compact, good pick up, good mileage, Stylish appearance...inthis class.Poor audio system is the main complaint. When I purchased the vehicle the USB was not working.

Exterior : Nice look and edges.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Comfort seating.Ample of legroom. But no comparison with the interiors of other cars of same budget like Swift Dzire etc.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Engine is abit noisy. Even after the third service and driving 8000 km (Mostly delhi-chandigarh highway) i am getting a fuel efficiency of 15kmpl that is not even close to what claimed(25kmpl) by the company.I understand the conditions in which they claim the fuel efficiency are different from daily life, but mostly driving the car with ECO indicator on i am not getting a satisfactory fuel efficiency.Even the pick up power is low as compared to swift. Even on full throttle it takes its complete time to achieve a good speed.

 

Ride Quality & Handling:Even at a speed of 130 kmph the handling is very nice.

 

Final Words: Not a value for money.In the same cost on can get a hold on to other cars with better interiors and fuel efficiency.All you get after buying this car is the Branding of Honda.

 

Areas of improvement  : Fuel efficiency need a drastic improvement.Interiors also can be improved for a better look and feel from inside.

 

 

Good Handling,Comfortable Ride.Ample of legroom and bootspaceEngine Noise,Shockers are not good.Dasoboard is not as it should be compared to other interior

Exterior Very appealing and gives a look of elegent sedan

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space, comfort is good. features are less. honda is very mingy and penny pincher in giving features. Interior styling is very old fashioned and meak. dashboard design is poor and is not upto mark when compared to any of compact sedan. Even in sx model you dont get a even slot for placing foglamps.Music system should be 2 DIN with large screen. system provided by honda gives a meaky look. No rear vent for passengers, No reverse parking sensors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is good, Noise is very very less. gear shift is smooth. Fuel economy is Ok.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality and handling is superb. Manevourability is fantastic and it feels like the car is gliding. steering control and accel is responsive and has no lag. positioning of gear nob is perfect and gear shift is smooth.

Final Words A good car but less in features and interiors. Buy if you are not fussy over interiors and want to enjoy a perfect ride.

Areas of improvement Interiors and interior styling.

looks, performance, comfortinteriors, dashboard, foglamp holder not provided

Exterior FANTASTIC LOOK.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) SUPERB LEG ROOM, SEATS AND ARRANGEMENT GIVES YOU UNBELEIVABLE COMFORT, BEIGE LOOK FOR THE SEATS LOOKS VERY OFFICIAL.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox 1.5L AT 1750RPM GIVES YOU AWESOME POWER: U WILL FEEL THE TAKEOFF WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE PEDAL AT SECOND GEAR. ery good fuel economy of 23.5 kmpl if no AC and speed is maintained at around 70-80kmpl. WITH AC AN HIGH SPEEDS IT IS OBVIOUS FUEL EFFICIENCY REDUCES I GOT AROUND 17.5KMPL.

Ride Quality & Handling YOU WILL NOT GET TIRED ON LONG DRIVES AND HANDLING THE VEHICLE AT HIGH SPEEDS IS VERY SMOOTH. AC IS GOOD: NO PROBLEMS FOR PERSON SEATED IN BACK ROW.

Final Words GO FOR IT. U WILL REALISE MY WORDS.

Areas of improvement GROUND CLEARANCE IS VERY LOW. U WILL HAVE TO DRIVE ON HUMPS IN A SNAILS PACE OR OTHERWISE IT IS GUARANTEED YOU WILL FEEL THE BUMP ON THE HUMP. ENGINE SOUND IS MANAGABLE - U WILL HERE ONLY IF YOU INTENTIONALLY TRY TO HEAR OR IT WILL GO UN-NOTICED.

VERY GOOD FUEL ECONOMY, LOOKS AWESOME, POWERFULL ENGINE,.LOW GROUND CLEARANCE.

Let me share my Traumatic experience @ Capital Honda Service Station, Kottivakkam, Chennai.

I had purchased a new Honda amaze and had installed GPS system during delivery. The car's performance was good apart from an intermittent minor noise probably coming out of the AC unit.

We checked in our car for the first free service @ Capital Honda, OMR. But my memory card was stolen and the noise issue unattended. And the worse part was the callous attitude of the service station manager who treated my 5000 rs memory card as a 10rs item. I found the staff of Capital Honda highly incompetent, corrupt and not customer-friendly.

Till date, we have not heard from them regarding the complaint we have raised. I guess they are OK to lose just one customer while they can service many who would not have the time and resource to complain online.

In a nutshell, I would highly recommend a honda car but never to have it serviced from capital honda, chennai.

Good Car PerformanceBad car servicing by capital honda

Exterior Looks great, curvy ends.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Perfect front row seats, back seats are extremely comfortable for 2 adults. arm rest is good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I am getting great milege in long drives, I got 28KM/L on a 1000KM drive.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is the best part. It is easy to handle like a Maruti 800. Ride quality is good.

Final Words It is a value for money vehicle. Go for it. I am using it from October 2013. The AC is powerful compared to the same segment cars. No power dip when AC is on. Good Interiors, plastic quality is fine. Nice steering wheel a bit heavy as well for great handling. Ground clearance must be improved. Also, diesel engine is a bit noisy.

Areas of improvement Diesel engine is a bit noisy but we wont feel it once the music is on. bad ground clearance. We wont expect some under body hits in even small humps.

Exterior

 The exterior of the vehicle is nice. Aerodynamics are super. The vehicle is an awesome door. The handle being a little lower of the front door gives you a feel of sitting in a sports car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 The dash board needs a little update on the design. Cluster is awesome. Also would love to have weather sensor (temp. sensor). Leg Space is good. Comfort, is 8/10. 2 marks I would deduct for the seats. Not so impressive. Although soft and comfy but design is not good. 6/10.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine Performace 9/10. Fuel Economy 10/10. I get 17Kmpl in city with A/C. and 18.5kmpl+ on highways with A/c.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Superb suspension. Cabin noise is minimal. Less Vibrations. EBD really works good on hilly areas. Handling is perfect. Superb turning radius.

Final Words

 BUY THIS CAR!!!! It's a brilliant piece of engineering

Areas of improvement  

 Interiors of course. And a bit on the seats. Seats like Honda City V4 would look awesome in the car.

 

Excellent Fuel Economy, Great PowerInterior dashboard needs a little lift.

Exterior Nice trendy looks but be careful on narrow roads and body of the car is quite flimsy and prone to dent very easily

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Not a sedan class comfort I found Swift's seats to be more comfortable Not of Honda class at all Dashboard and interiors are pathetic they look like a cheap version made for taxi.

The front seats are quite uncomfortable in a long drive as the seats are not true bucket seats.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The only thing to speak for in Honda amaze is the engine with its phenomenal pick up and torque you can negotiate any traffic or road.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent handling and ride quality upto 130km/hr is cool the engine pick up torque manueverability of the power steering is nice although the gear is stiff at times 

Driving the car for 200kms is fun but beyond that it is not comfortable due to poor seat design.

Final Words Not a car worth so much money. Buy a swift/i20 instead, AT 9LACS YOU CAN get A MUCH BETTER CAR.
