The Honda Amaze is a 4-door sedan produced by Honda. It is the sedan version of the Brio hatchback. Honda launched the Amaze in India in April 2013 and was developed at Honda R&D Asia Pacific Co., Ltd. located in Bangkok, Thailand. The Amaze is available in gasoline and diesel engine.

Honda is gearing up to make the global debut of the all-new Honda Amaze at the 2018 Auto Expo.

Production

The Amaze is being manufactured at the company's facility in Greater Noida, with a localization level of more than 90%.

The Amaze is Honda's first diesel offering in India. The car is also available with the 1.2 L (73 cu in) L12B i-VTEC petrol engine that is used in the Fit/Jazz and Brio hatchbacks.

Apart from being the company's first diesel car in India, the Amaze is slotted in the lucrative sub 4-meter entry-level sedan segment, where it competes against the Maruti Swift DZire, Tata Indigo eCS, and later Zest, and Hyundai Xcent. In the Philippines, the Brio Amaze also competes with the Mitsubishi Mirage G4.

Honda provides a new India-specific 1.5 L (92 cu in) diesel engine in the Amaze. This engine gets the i-DTEC moniker and it is a derivative of the new 1.6 L (98 cu in) Civic diesel engine recently launched in Europe. This India-specific derivative was developed around excise/taxation rules which offer a favorable tax regime for cars of sub 4-meter cars with engines of less than 1.5 L (92 cu in) capacity. Honda claims this all-aluminum engine is the lightest diesel engine in its class.

The turbocharger used in the Amaze's 1.5 L (92 cu in) i-DTEC diesel engine was designed and built by Honeywell.

2016 update

The Amaze was updated in May 2016. This update includes a new grille, dashboard design, which are the same as the Brio, new taillights, and the use of continuous variable transmission, replacing the 5-speed automatic one. The engine remains the same. Similar to the previous model, both the engines use the same 5-speed manual transmission, while the CVT is offered on the gasoline variant only.

The updated Amaze is offered in E, S, SX and VX trims.
