Honda Amaze [2013-2016] User Reviews

Exterior: The look of car is really very good. It looks trendy.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): The space in the rear is an issue. It can accomidate 2 adults and a kid comfortabally. But, if you try to make 3 adults sit, its not good. Although its ok when going a short distence, but gets really very uncomfortable for long distence. But the front row is spacious and comfortable.

The features are good. The finish and look  has got  honda City's (Second Genaration) feel. Overall it good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Let me clarify here that, the engine is not at all noisy. The cabin is also very much noise proof. I drove it for 450 K.M Staight, but did not feel any noise or vibration. And the gear box is smooth like butter.

The fuel economy is also good. It gave me a milage of 21 K.M Per liter with A/C, which is actually good for my kind of driving.

Ride Quality & Handling: As I have already stated, the ride quality is an issue in the real row. The Suspensions are really hard. So, hard that I felt like sitting in a Fiat Premier Padmini.  You can actually feel each and every hump and jurks on he road. So, my humble request to Honda people is to make the suspension a bit softer, actually a lot softer.

The handling is awsome. I drove it on plain roads, rough roads, hilly roads, in rain, everywhere it passed with flying colours.

Final Words: Don't think much, if you are planning to buy it, thewn just go for it.

Areas of improvement : Definately, the suspensions at the rear.

Styling, looks, Performance, Fuel Economy, Boot Space.Hard Suspeensions, Rearside seating not ideal for long ride.

Exterior is good  enough.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Is satsfactory.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Unbearable cabin sound is the only concern for which  I hav to go for other car where I hav to pay more for fuel.

U have to compramise with uncomfrrtsble sond if u r going for this car. the sound gives feeling of driving Tata indica 2001. I pesonally want to hav that feeling again. Even Indica improved alot. Hope hoda will do the same.

Ride Quality & Handling Clutch is hard (harder then my indica 2006 which is now khatara) , gear shifting is tolrable. May be I am expecting more from honda but for honda and me it is not up to the mark.

Final Words If u r not perchesing alto in petrol and indica in diesel it means u want style, luxery, ccomfort and safety. Sefty is there in this car but piece of mind naaaaaaa...

I m middle class person my daily running is aroun60-70 km I tried a lot to compromise with its sound . So I called test drive 2nd time 1st time I took in city and 2nd time in city as well as on expressway . It is having the noise at 40 as well as on 135 kmph. So I rejected the car and booked other diesel car.

It is as simple as having a very beautyfull zero figure wife who keep on shouting in fact barking every time when u enter home.

I dont need that kind of wife.

Areas of improvement Noise.

Pick upSound, suspnsion

THe musculine & curvy look makes it ahead of all the sedans in the segment. Best in class interiors with elegance & confort.

The first diesel engine with the maximum power 106HP & mileage 25.08 has given the strong feagures to conquor the market.  We believe HONDA to prove to the figures

I-DTEC will prove out to be the best. I have a linea & Yet to take the drive for the AMAZE but feels will be astonosing.

The Amaze is a testimony to Honda’s ‘Man Maximum, Machine Minimum’ principle that believes in maximizing space for you and minimizing space taken up by the machinery. With Best in Class cabin space & so much attention paid to your comfort, you will be amazed at how Amaze changes your life.

The rear of this car has been specifically designed to accommodate your every need while traveling. The 400 liter boot space provides you with the comfort of knowing that everything you want is always with you.

Final Words Diesel Icon in small Sedan section with Great Style & mileage & interiors

REALLY AMAZE ING.

Diesel Icon in small Sedan section with Great Style & mileage & interiorsStill nothing can be found as cons

Exterior:  Very good looking, very compact. Honda's policy of max space has worked wonders while desigining Amaze.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Marvalous engineering of space, good comfortable seats, Leg space as good as a premium car.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Pepy engine - would say driver's car, wonderful ecomony in city we are getting 19+ per litre 11000kms done already. Long drive we should get atleast 22+ with AC on.

Slick and short gear box does wonders

Ride Quality & Handling: Execelent handling, and good road behaviour. Very good in sharp turns. Honda has done an excellent job

Final Words: A wonderful compact car with all features!! Can say a perfect car!! We were looking at Rapid / Vento and D'zire. but when we saw this car we just flipped at the way this car was made. the strong diesel eng, interior spacing, boot space made us go for this car!! Also Hallmark Honda Navi Mumbai (from whom we bought the car) has till date given a wonderful service!!

Areas of improvement: Honda has to work on insulation of outside sound!!

Economy, pick up, Exterior look, leg space, dicky spaceDash board cld have being better similiar to City

Exterior : The exterior is beautiful, no comparison.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) : Space ^ Comforts are good. Should have given leather seat covers for top end models.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox : Good pick up, new car and hence not verified fuel economy, Gearbox is satisfactory.

Ride Quality & Handling : Ride quality is smooth and better and handling is eazy.

Final Words : Good Car but pricing is little high compared to the features of Ford Ecosport which is having lot of features. Engine noise is not abnormal as stated in many reviews. Swift Dezire is no way near to the Honda Amaze and cannot be compared.

Areas of improvement : They say it is keyless entry but it is not in real sense. In Ecosport if the key is within 3 meters of the car, you can open the door and start with puch buton. hat Amaze is having only Remote Locking & Opening. Bluetooth and climate control ac (important required features) are required.

Exterior look, driving comfort, powerNot having bluetooth and climate control a/c

Exterior

Looks are just amazing. The car looks like a premium segment vehicle. In comparison, DZire has become a little old.

Amaze doesn't look like a hacked up Brio in any sense which is a very big advantage. DZire looks like Swift which is a big disadvantage. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Ample space for average Indian with 5.8/10 height.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Diesel is a super performer, 1498cc is a big plus. There is literally no turbo lag which is very evident in DZire.

ARAI rates this vehicle to have 26 kmpl. Now that's a big number. It gives 20-21 on Highways and 18-19 in city which is good 3-4 Kmpl higher than its competitors. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Very smooth vehicle. The suspensions are not stiff and the steering is very responsive. The top end VXMT iDTEC is fully loaded and has all safety features. All that in 5-6k lesser than a ZDi DZire.

Only Automatic Climate Control is lacking in the vehicle. Could have given a boost to its already high on-road mileage.

Final Words

Very good vehicle. Truly Honda has hit the nail right as it did with City many years ago. 

Areas of improvement  

iDTEC is noisy, it does have a humming sound which many will find irritating. Audio system and the dashboard need an uplift. It is too contemporary for a peppy vehicle like Amaze. Don't want it like Chevy Beat which looks more like a bike than car from inside, but at least have the sleek lining of DZire whose interior styling defnitely beats Amaze. 

 

Interior Space, Exterior styling, Comfort insideNoisy iDTec Engine, Audio system is retro

Exterior The exterior design is too good and stylish. Gives you the feel of a big car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space is good both in front and rear. Leg space is more and very comfortable for longer drives. The built in features are also good and the seat cusions are soft. The arm rest provided in the rear is comfortable and gives you the feel of a sedan. Has enough cup holders for you to enjoy the long drives with families and friends

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is very smooth except for the noise. Even though the noise is low when compared to other diesel cars its quite irritating. The noise disappears after you reach a speed of 50kmph. You wont feel the noise if you are listening to some music. Gives an excellent mileage, I have driven around 150km as of now and it gives me a mileage of 18kmpl with AC inside Bangalore city traffic. (As shown by the fuel economy indicator). Gear shift is easy, it has short gear system.

Ride Quality & Handling Gives you a amazing driving experience. If you had switched from an hatchback to sedan, dont worry as it is very easy to judge. Have to be little careful as the pick up is more and might zoom out quickly before you realize.

Final Words Worth the money you pay for!!!

Areas of improvement Noiseless cabin.

Excellent mileage, comfortable to driveEngine noise at low speed

Exterior Appealing exteriors especially Rear.Honda Cars always look best,All colour options not available in Base models i.e. EMT and EXMT.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very similar to Honda Brio., But better than other cars, Space is quite enough for Rear passengers, Good Leg and Knee Room., Comfort is quite OK.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good Pick up. Somewhat engine noise is there but it is acceptable, as Volkswagen Polo and Dzire are more noisy. and after all all diesl engines make noise but issue can be set aside, if  user wants fuel economy. Fuel economy can be judged only after 2-3 service intervals. Gear shifting is much smooth and hence no problem in this respect. Overall Value for money.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is best. Easy maneauverability and Good control on vehicle.

Final Words A very good introduction of Honda in diesel segment. Generates healthy competition among other manufacturers. A true Hindi saying " Der Aaye  Durust Aaye"

Areas of improvement Ground Clearance must be increased upto 170mm atleast, Dual Horn must be given in Base Models also. AC Fan noise must be reduced, All Colour Options must be made available in Base Models.

Excellent Front and Rear design,especially Rear .,Very Smartly Priced,Geneartes HealthyCompetitionAll Colours Options not available in EMT,EXMT(Last 2 Base models),Waiting Period too long.

Exterior Looks like old 3rd generation honda city. Boot is added nicely to hatchback. From front view looks like B2 class hatchback. From side view & quarter view looks like proper sedan wheelbase is less, so turning is not a problem even in small lanes & conjusted parking. Power exterior mirror folding, first time in class.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Unconvensional dashboard for this class. Seats not comfirtable when comapred to dzire, sail or manza, Cabin has great space.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Even it has 100 BHP, it doesnt rev too much like DDIS engine. So dont expect it to go beyong 160-165 KM/H. Fuel economy is great for disel.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is OK, but having fun like dzire. City dirving is easy. Ride quality is littel bit bumpy on pot holes.

Final Words A great car from Honda which could see more improvement on comfort, interior styling & more features on high end varient. 😊

Areas of improvement Seating comfort, Interior styling, New dashboard, more features like full MID, folding rear seat, automatic climate control, rear fog lamp. Seat belt height adjustment, adjustable head restraints at least on top variant.

Fuel economy, boot space, cabin spaceFeatures, cheap interiors & dashboard, looks is like old honda city
