Our take on this /// Verdict

The Honda Amaze Diesel EX is a compelling choice in the compact sedan segment, especially for those prioritizing fuel efficiency, comfort, and reliability. The 1.5-liter diesel engine, producing 98 bhp, offers smooth acceleration and decent power, although it can be a bit noisy at lower gears. The gearbox is smooth, and the CVT variant, while having a slight rubber band effect, provides convenient city driving. The car excels in ride quality and handling, making it a comfortable choice for both city and highway drives. However, the build quality and interior elements could be improved, and the lack of certain features like rear AC vents and underbody engine cover are notable drawbacks. Overall, its a practical and reliable option, especially for those seeking a balance between performance and economy.

Price

In India, the Honda Amaze Diesel EX typically falls within a competitive price bracket. The ex-showroom price for this variant usually ranges between 8.5 lakh to 10 lakh, depending on the region and any additional features or accessories. On-road prices, including taxes, registration, and insurance, can range from 10 lakh to 12.5 lakh. This pricing makes the Amaze Diesel EX an attractive option in its segment, offering good value for money considering its performance, fuel efficiency, and comfort. However, prices can vary based on the state and local taxes, so its advisable to check with local dealers for the most accurate pricing.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 12 November 2024 12:09 AM Honda has confirmed that the new Amaze will retain the 1.2-litre, four-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine, producing 89 bhp and 110 Nm of torque. This means there will be no Diesel EX variant in the new lineup. The focus on petrol engines is a clear indication of Hondas strategy to adapt to changing emission standards.

Monday, 11 November 2024 02:31 PM While the Diesel EX is off the table, the new Amaze will feature a sharper design with sleeker LED headlights, a new hexagonal grille, and updated bumpers. The interior will also see significant changes, including a new dashboard layout and advanced features like a semi-digital driver’s display and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Monday, 11 November 2024 09:41 PM With the new generation of the Amaze coming in December 2024, there is speculation that the prices might increase, potentially affecting the affordability of the vehicle. However, since the Diesel EX is no longer an option, this speculation does not apply to that specific variant.

Tuesday, 05 November 2024 09:48 PM The upcoming third-generation Honda Amaze, set to launch on December 4, 2024, will not include a diesel engine option, including the Diesel EX variant. Instead, it will only be available with a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. I believe this shift will impact the appeal of the Amaze to those who prefer diesel engines for their fuel efficiency.

Monday, 04 November 2024 08:36 PM Honda has announced that it will be discontinuing the diesel variants of the Amaze, including the Diesel EX, due to the implementation of stricter emission norms in India. This move aligns with Hondas decision to phase out diesel engines from their Indian lineup.

Thursday, 20 June 2024 03:34 PM Honda has introduced a 7-year extended warranty for several models, including the Amaze, but this does not apply to the discontinued Diesel EX variant. This move is aimed at enhancing customer satisfaction and trust in Hondas reliability.

Saturday, 15 June 2024 09:06 PM In the past, the waiting period for the Honda Amaze has been significant, but with the discontinuation of the diesel variants, the dynamics might change. Sales analysis from previous months shows a steady demand for the Amaze, but it remains to be seen how the absence of a diesel option will impact sales.

Wednesday, 10 April 2024 10:51 AM Before the discontinuation, Honda had increased the prices of the Amaze by up to Rs. 3,600 in April 2024. This price hike was part of a broader adjustment across Hondas lineup but does not affect the Diesel EX since it is no longer available.

Monday, 25 March 2024 06:48 AM The Honda Amaze has been re-tested by Global NCAP under stricter protocols, but these ratings do not apply to the Diesel EX specifically since it is no longer in production. The new Amaze is expected to retain and possibly enhance its safety features, including up to 6 airbags and electronic stability control.

Friday, 15 March 2024 08:25 AM In March 2024, Honda offered discounts on several models, including the Amaze, but these offers did not include the Diesel EX variant as it was already being phased out. These discounts were part of Hondas strategy to clear inventory before the new generation launch.

Mileage

Thursday, 21 November 2024 01:55 AM The Honda Amaze Diesel EX is known for its impressive fuel efficiency, which is a significant factor for many Indian buyers. In city driving, you can expect a mileage of around 16-18 kmpl, while on highways, it can go up to 22 kmpl. This makes it an economical choice for daily use as well as long road trips. The fuel efficiency is consistent across various user reviews, indicating that the car delivers on its promise of being fuel-efficient, thereby reducing running costs.
