Honda Amaze in short
The third-generation Amaze, launched in December 2024, is Honda's compact sedan against the Maruti Dzire, Hyundai Aura and Tata Tigor. It brings City-inspired styling, Honda Sensing ADAS — a segment first — and the smooth 1.2 i-VTEC with a proper CVT rather than an AMT. Refinement and a mature drive remain its calling cards over budget rivals.
