Prepare to be Amaze-d

The Honda Amaze is more than just a car, it defines all that a compact sedan should be.

The new Amaze isn’t just larger, but also features a head-turning design that is both unmistakably Honda and modern. In fact, it was designed as a sedan from the ground up to ensure that it’s larger, more stylish and everything you wish other compact sedans could be.

However, looks are definitely not all that the Amaze has going for it.

Beneath the bonnet

Honda’s i-VTEC engine technology delivers exceptional fuel efficiency (some 5,6 litres/100 km for the manual transmission models and 5,7 litre/10 km for the CVT version).

This frugal use of fuel doesn’t mean that the Amaze doesn’t deliver swift performance as it can accelerate from 0-10 km/h in as little as 12,3 seconds, thanks to a kerb mass of just over 900 kg.

S-p-a-c-e and safety

Enough space for everyone, generous cabin storage that includes cup holders and door pocket as well as boot capacity of 420 litres? You bet!

The space, style and comfort of the Amaze seem unrivalled, but that doesn’t mean that they have skimped on finishes or safety features.

All Amaze models have dual front airbags, inertia reel seatbelts – front and rear, and IsoFix child seat anchors. ABS brakes with EBD also comes standard with the Amaze.

Honda doesn’t only ensure that your family is comfortable, but that they are safe, too!
