హోండా అమేజ్ [2013-2016] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

My Honda Amaze Diesel has done about 6500 kms. The mileage has dropped drastically from 19-20 to 15-16, on the same pattern of usage. Car has a lot of cabin noise, which other diesel cars don't have. Also, the suspension is ill designed, under capacity suspension for a diesel car. My 4 year old accent sails smoothly over potholes, while the new amaze fails to absorb any of the bumps and rattles too. Am not very happy, but since I just bought the car, I guess i'll have to live with it. Please do check other cars like ford ecosport, (even if you have a waiting period) which are priced in the same bracket. They're packed with features, which even the Honda Amaze top model does not have, and they don't have such problems like Amaze. Its worth the wait. Happy Driving.

Exterior Ok.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Poor dash board quality is very poor seat adjustment not working properly, driver side window glass bit noise e ,door handles are bit hard. Very poor dealers very poor service experience.

Engine Performance bit noise e  Fuel Economy is ok  and Gearbox is also very noise e and hard.

Ride Quality is ok & Handling is ok.

Final Words 6 month back I bought amaze (D) due to poor quality materials used in the car  & very poor experience with dealer, within 6 months viper is not working properly, I thought of selling this car (7000 running car) company says 30% depreciation no resale value. If you see news paper add company is advertising about resale value its all fake. Look for Hyundai cars I had used for 10 years I just compared with my santro & Hyundai service.

Areas of improvement Totally unhappy no words. Dont go by lookwise /brand wise its old honda please take long testdrive with any selfdrive cars you will come to no what exact it is.

All this i am comparing with last 10 years of experience with Hyundai.

The design of Honda Amaze at the lower part of Bumper is very poor. Wherever I am seeing the amaze car (including my car) am seeing so many rough scratches on that area. The design at that place is not suitable for indian road conditions.

Next, the shield provided at the lower part of the engine is fixed with body by buttons. Since there is only 5 buttons at the front side, it is very easily removing due to indian road conditions. No other top brand cars are having button like fixtures there. It was unpinned in my car. when i went to honda showroom in tirunelveli, they said to replace the whole engine shield. Its cost is about Rs. 4500. Just for the damage of 4 plastic pins why should we replace the whole shield.

Also, the car body above the rear wheels is easily gets scractes , it can be modified. otherwise the performance is good.

Exterior

 GOOD LOOKING CAR HOWEVER VERY LOW GROUND CLEARENCE

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 COULD BE BETTER. THE SEATS ARE VERY HARD EVEN THE BEST CUSHION SEAT COVERS WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM, NO CAR CHARGER OUTLET ALSO NO READING LIGHT IN THE REAR. OVRMS PROVIDED ARE OF BAD QUALITY WHICH SPOILS THE LOOKS OF THE CAR.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 GOOD . FUEL ECONOMY IS ALSO GOOD , HOWEVER GEAR BOX AND THE CLUTCH IS HARD AND YOU WISH AFTER DRIVING FEW 1000KMS THAT AN AUTO TRANSMISSION SHOULD HAVE BEEN BOUGHT.

Ride Quality & Handling

 SUSPENSION AND THE REAR FEELS HARD AS IF SITTING ON TRACTOR

Final Words

 HONDA CARS SHOULD RESPOND TO CUSTOMER QUERRIES. DESPITE SENDING SO MANY EMAILS THE COMPANY HAS NOT RESPONDED TO MY QUERRY. DEALERS ON VERY SMALL ISSUE THREATENS CUSTOMERS ABOUT THE WARRANTY GETTING VOID WITHOUT PROVIDING A SOLUTION.

 NEED TO IMPROVE THE OVRMS FOR THE EMT MODEL..PROVISION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF REAR SPEAKERS SHOULD BE PROVIDED 

 

FUEL ECONOMYBAD QUALITY OVRMS FOR THE BASIC MODEL,NO PROVISION FOR INSTALLATION OF REAR SPEAKERS EVEN BY HONDA

Booked the car before launch, Onwer for last two years, 25000 plus in two years, satisfied with the engine and vehicle performance, enjoyed driving 600 km from dalhousie to delhi in a single day withourt any tiredness.

Only at times fells the intial fater pick up isues otherwise the Honda Engineering is great. At times feels the engine noise but against economy bearable. No maintenance issues, good space, good boot space, an enjoyable daily companion.

At hilly terrain never felt that the car is low floored, was able to monevour even from uneven and broken roads withourt touching the car floor. At low spped sometimes the road feel is there but at high spped there is total comfort.

The head light needs to be brightened as during rainny season I flet a difficulty at night. In two years the only difficulty I have felt is in the locks.  the driver lock is getting a little dizzy and is not as smooth as earlier. The key sometimes does not moves smoothly.

The tyre and the jack nees to be fixed so that in cae the car jumps they do not jump, the inner of the dicky also needs some make over or covering. My view overall is positive for the car.

Smooth crusing on highwayMore gear ratio setting required for faster takeoff

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Not upto mark.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good but noisy diesel engine and maintainance is expensive. Spares not available in market and delears demands more money as labour charge and we have to pay more for same type of spares / work as Maruti Brand. Lasting of spare is also same as Maruti. Consumables are also expensive than Maruti.

Ride Quality & Handling Very Good driving experience than Maruti.

Final Words Le sakte hain. maza aayega chalane me but Maintanance me paresaani jhelne ko tyaar rahna hoga. Brake shoe , Air filter, etc consumables k liye v dealer k paas jaana padega or labour charge  double se v jyada dena padega. dealer koi v spare sell nahi kartaa jo spare lekar bahar aap kaam karwa sako. spare open market me nahi milega. fir v lena chaho to Mubaarak. Mai to avi jhelunga hi, chuki gaadi kharid li hai to taarif to karani hi padegi.

Areas of improvement Please supply consumables in open market also. I am living in Bokaro (Jharkhand). min. distance dealer is 55 kms away. If any brakedown arise I am helpless or pay more money to dealer as outstation service charge. etc.

Exterior is good, mileage also good, but acessories like ORVM, Music system etc is very cheap.Rear seat less spacious, Interiors not up to mark. My ORVM glass broken - sunlight heat .

200000 kms and still fun to drive. 200 nm of torque is so good, it gives goosebumps at full throttle. Explored hilly terrains of H.P (Kinnaur/Rohru) to dusty plains of U.P, this car takes on every journey with ease. Handling on curves is so engaging, all other cars of this & 1 above segment couldn't catch up.

Exterior

 Exterior is superb with crease lines and curves. People will stand and look at curvacious body. Best view of the car is from the rear. It looks very sexy, stylish and  more over looks like younger cousin of Mercedes benz.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Space and comfort is great considering it is a sub-compact car. Car is not rich in features. Basic things like power outlet or cigarette lighter point does not come in base version. Even my Maruti 800 had cigaretter lighter point about 7 years back. Featurewise not so rich like swift Dzire

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 One of the best diesel engines in India. First day after taking the delivery I started getting fuel efficieny of 18.2 kmpl. It is two days since I bought my car. I have travelled about 200 kms, already I am getting a FE of 20 kmpl per litre (diesel). Engine performance is the best part of the car. It is as powerful as Innova meant for carrying 7 or 8 people. Overtaking is a breeze.

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride quality and handling is good. Very precise steering. Best for ladies who fear that my car might go somewhere and hit. You point the steering and press the pedal, car will go straight there.

Final Words

 Value for money car. You will be amazed every millisecond you are in the car. I would vote this as the best car of 2013 amoung launches. I would not have bought this car, if I had not accidentally walked into Dakshin Honda showroom on Lavelle road. One test drive made me to change my decision and booked this car instead of Ritz Vdi-ABS. Probably it is the only car in the country where even base versions come with ABS-EBD. Thanks to Honda for considering safety of passangers rather than trying to make money.

Areas of improvement  

 NVH needs to be in level with Dzire. Honda needs to advertise on TV and print media more. Many people are not aware of it's great power, mileage, space and comfort. Dealer network should be strengthened in all cities of India to pull the crowd away from Maruti. Finally most important point from Indian consumers point of view, spare parts must be cheap, you cannot charge exhorbitant price for accessories.

 

Good fuel economy, Great styling, Good crease lines and a stylish bumperPoor audio, uninteresting dashboard
