Honda Amaze facelift: what to expect?
The Amaze facelift gets minor tweaks to its exteriors. As far as features go, new alloy wheel design (same as 4th-gen City), full-LED lamps and LED fog lamps have been confirmed for higher variants along with new paint shades. There are talks of updated alloy wheel designs as well. Inside the cabin, one can expect to see new fabric upholstery for the seats, new interior trim pieces and more.
Honda Amaze facelift: engine and powertrain
There are no changes expected under the hood which means that the Amaze facelift could continue with the same engine and gearbox options of its predecessor. The previous powertrains on offer were a 90hp, 1.2-litre i-VTEC petrol engine making 110Nm of torque, which will come mated to either a 5-speed manual or a CVT automatic gearbox.
The diesel engine, meanwhile, produces 100bhp, from a 1.5-litre unit that puts out 200Nm when paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox, and 80hp and 160Nm of torque when coupled with a CVT automatic gearbox. The diesel-CVT combination of the Amaze is unique and is something which its competitors do not offer.
Honda Amaze facelift: rivals in India
The Honda Amaze facelift will rival other compact sedans such as the Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Hyundai Aura, Tata Tigor and Ford Aspire.
Honda in India
Currently, Honda India sells the City and Amaze sedans, the Jazz hatchback and the WR-V compact crossover. Honda is also preparing for the launch of the City hybrid this year, but a timeframe for that model is yet to be revealed. Going forward, Honda is planning to introduce an all-new midsize SUV based on the City’s platform by 2023. This new SUV will take on the likes of the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, MG Hector and Tata Harrier when launched.
