Engine & Performance 

The 3rd Gen Honda Amaze is powered by a 1.2L 4-cylinder i-VTEC SOHC petrol engine, compliant with E20 fuel standards. It offers two transmission options: a 5-speed manual and a CVT. 

The new fuel injection-ECU enables the engine to communicate with the vehicle and control Honda SENSING technologies.

The Chassis, equipped with a MacPherson Strut Front Suspension and High-Torsional rigidity & light weight Torsion Beam Rear suspension, is engineered to provide enhanced comfort and stability. Combined with Advanced Braking Systems and precise EPS (Electric Power Steering), the Amaze delivers better controllability, steering and maneuverability.

The Air Condition system, by using a bigger blower motor and applying rear AC vents, ensures faster cabin cooling performance (5 per cent faster for front seat and 45 per cent faster for rear seat), especially for rear passenger comfort during heavy traffic congestion and high temperature environment.

For better NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) performance in the all-new Amaze, engine noise, road noise, and soundproofing have been improved to balance noise reduction, minimise vibration transfer, and provide a more comfortable ride.

Safety: Segment-First ADAS

Honda has equipped the Amaze with Honda SENSING ADAS - Level 2, making it the most affordable car in India with advanced driver-assistance features. 

Key safety technologies include:

  • Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)
  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
  • Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
  • 6 Airbags & ISOFIX Anchors

Standard safety features such as Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), Hill Start Assist (HSA), and a multi-angle rear camera ensure comprehensive protection.

Connectivity Features

The Amaze integrates Honda Connect, offering 37+ connected features, including remote operations, geo-fencing, and stolen vehicle tracking, accessible via smartwatches and Alexa. Buyers also get a 5-year complimentary subscription.

Colour & Variants

The all-new 3rd Generation Amaze is available in 3 feature packed trim levels – V, VX and ZX with Manual Transmission and CVT. The exterior colour lineup consists of 6 colours - Obsidian Blue Pearl (New), Radiant Red Metallic, Platinum White Pearl, Golden Brown Metallic, Meteoroid Gray Metallic and Lunar Silver Metallic. 

Pricing

Available in three trims—V, VX, and ZX—the Amaze is priced from ₹7,99,900 to ₹10,89,900 (ex-showroom Delhi). Introductory prices are valid for 45 days from launch, making it a competitive option for first-time buyers and upgrade seekers alike.
