Since we have already
driven the vehicle, we found the vehicle to be actually great for so
many reasons, first the 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel housed in the car is a
gem, it just runs superb except the fact that there is a turbo lag at
early RPMs, but on the whole we found it better than its closest
competitors in India like Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire and Toyota Etios.
If we talk about the
design of Honda Amaze, it is certainly much similar to that of the Brio
hatchback on which the car has been built, especially the front is
almost like the Brio except the new twin horizontal slat front grille,
the bumper too has been revised a little, helping it become more
sedan-like.
While the rear design of
the Amaze looks inspired from the new Honda City, having the wraparound
tail-lamps and some more cues, but we won't comment that it's better
than the City, however beats most its competitors in the finishing.
Then comes the cabin,
this too gives you the feeling of the Brio hatchback, especially the
front seats, no changes have been made there, yes what impressed us is
the fact that having the 50mm longer wheelbase, the rear seat has got
even more spacious, and now you have the good enough luggage area of
around 350-375 litres about 50-litres more than the Dzire.
And like we mentioned
earlier, the all new 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel engine of Honda Amaze,
developed by former Honda F1 team is likely to deliver the mileage close
to 24-25kmpl, which might again help it gain the competitive edge over
most its rivals.
While the Thailand
version of the Amaze will be equipped with a gasoline engine, in India,
the car will come in both petrol and diesel engine options. Also read Honda Amaze road test to know more about the car. http://www.cardekho.com
