About

The Honda Amaze Diesel Special Edition is built on the success of Hondas compact sedan, designed specifically with Indian market conditions in mind. It features a 1.5-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged diesel i-DTEC engine that delivers 80PS of power and 160Nm of torque when paired with the CVT transmission. This combination provides smooth and efficient performance, especially in city traffic. The car boasts a comfortable ride, thanks to its suspension setup, and offers generous interior space, including a spacious boot and multiple storage compartments. Additional features include automatic climate control, a Digipad 2.0 infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and parking sensors. While it may lack some premium features like automatic headlamps and wipers, the Amaze remains a well-rounded and practical choice for daily driving needs.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Honda Amaze Diesel Special Edition is a compelling choice in the sub-4 meter sedan segment, particularly for those who prioritize comfort, efficiency, and smooth city driving. The 1.5-liter diesel engine paired with a CVT transmission is a standout feature, offering a refined and powerful driving experience. The suspension is comfort-oriented, effectively absorbing most road imperfections, although it can feel slightly bouncy at times. The interior space is generous, with ample storage and a comfortable ride, making it an excellent option for daily use. However, some users have noted issues with fit and finish, and the lack of certain features like automatic headlamps and wipers might be a drawback. Overall, its a solid choice for those seeking a reliable and efficient sedan.

Price

The Honda Amaze Diesel Special Edition is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for this variant typically ranges from around Rs 9.5 lakhs to Rs 11.5 lakhs, depending on the location and any additional features or accessories. On-road prices, including taxes, registration, and insurance, can range from approximately Rs 11 lakhs to Rs 13.5 lakhs. This pricing makes the Amaze an attractive option for buyers looking for a feature-packed sedan without breaking the bank. However, its always a good idea to check with local dealerships for the most accurate and up-to-date pricing.

Latest Updates

Monday, 16 January 2023 05:49 AM Honda has discontinued the diesel variant of the Honda Amaze in the Indian market due to the upcoming stricter Real Driving Emission (RDE) norms. The diesel engine, which was a 1.5-litre turbocharged unit producing 100 bhp and 200 Nm of torque, is no longer available. I believe this move is a significant shift towards complying with emission standards, but it might disappoint those who preferred the diesel option for its performance and mileage.

Monday, 16 January 2023 10:06 AM The Honda Amaze diesel was the last diesel model in its segment, and its discontinuation marks the end of an era for diesel subcompact sedans in India. The car will now be available only with a 1.2-litre petrol engine, which produces 90 bhp and 110 Nm of torque. I think this change will push buyers towards petrol or alternative fuel options, which could be a mixed bag for consumers.

Tuesday, 10 January 2023 09:16 AM Prior to its discontinuation, the Honda Amaze diesel was known for its punchy performance and better mileage compared to the petrol variant. It was also the only sub-4m sedan to offer a CVT gearbox with a diesel engine. I believe this unique selling point will be missed by many who valued the diesels performance and efficiency.

Tuesday, 10 January 2023 08:09 AM The decision to discontinue the diesel Amaze is largely driven by the need to comply with the new BS6 phase II emission norms, which include the Real Driving Emission (RDE) standards. These norms require significant investments in engine technology, leading to potential price hikes. I think this is a prudent move by Honda to avoid the financial burden of upgrading the diesel engine.

Thursday, 13 August 2020 06:34 AM Before its discontinuation, the Honda Amaze diesel was available in various trims, including the top-end VX trim with a CVT automatic transmission. This combination offered a unique blend of performance and convenience. I believe the absence of this option will be felt by those who appreciated the diesel-CVT combo for its city and highway driving capabilities.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 08:38 AM The Honda Amaze Diesel Special Edition offers impressive fuel efficiency, which is a significant factor for many Indian buyers. According to Hondas claims, the diesel CVT variant achieves a mileage of around 21 kmpl, while real-world usage often reports figures between 18 to 20 kmpl. This makes it an economical choice for both city and highway driving, helping to keep running costs manageable.
