About

The Honda Amaze Diesel VX is a well-rounded compact sedan that excels in several key areas. It boasts a spacious interior with comfortable seating for both front and rear passengers, along with a generous 420L boot space. The diesel engine paired with a CVT gearbox provides smooth and efficient city driving, though it may not be as engaging for spirited driving. The ride quality is soft and comfortable in urban settings but can be less stable at higher speeds. Visibility from the front is excellent, and the cars overall design feels well-proportioned and balanced. While the build quality could be improved, especially in terms of plastic materials, the Amaze remains a solid choice for those seeking a reliable, comfortable, and feature-packed compact sedan.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Honda Amaze Diesel VX is a compelling option in the compact sedan segment, particularly for those who prioritize city driving and comfort. I was impressed by its spacious interior, which offers ample headroom and knee room, making it feel like a miniature version of the Honda City. The 420L boot space is a significant advantage, especially for those who need ample luggage room. However, the build quality, while decent, feels a bit cost-cutting with hollow-sounding plastics. The diesel CVT variant is magical in city driving, offering smooth and effortless navigation through traffic. However, on the highway, it can be noisy above 100 kmh, and the soft ride quality can lead to body roll and bobbing. Overall, its an excellent choice for city dwellers and family buyers, but not ideal for enthusiastic drivers or those who frequently drive on highways.

Price

In India, the Honda Amaze Diesel VX typically falls in the range of around 9.5 to 10.5 lakhs ex-showroom, depending on the location and any ongoing offers. On-road prices can vary significantly due to state-specific taxes and other charges, but you can expect to pay around 11 to 12.5 lakhs. This pricing makes the Amaze a competitive option in its segment, offering a balance of features, comfort, and performance. However, its always a good idea to check with local dealers for the most accurate and up-to-date pricing.

Latest Updates

Monday, 11 November 2024 12:58 AM The Honda Amaze Diesel VX has been discontinued in the Indian market as part of Hondas strategic decisions. This move marks the end of the diesel variant, which was known for its powerful engine and good mileage. I think this will be a significant loss for those who preferred the diesel option for its performance and fuel efficiency.

Tuesday, 02 April 2024 02:20 PM Honda has reduced the number of variants for the Amaze, and the Diesel VX is no longer part of the lineup. The Amaze is now available in only two trims: S and VX, with the diesel engine option completely phased out. This change comes ahead of the expected launch of the new-gen Amaze later this year.

Friday, 15 March 2024 02:40 PM The Honda Amaze Diesel VX was praised for its excellent build quality, vast service network, and powerful engine. However, with its discontinuation, potential buyers will have to look at other options within the sub-4 meter sedan segment. I believe the absence of this variant will be felt, especially among those who valued its diesel performance.

Tuesday, 20 February 2024 12:20 PM Before its discontinuation, the Honda Amaze Diesel VX was priced at Rs 10.60 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and offered a 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel engine producing 100 HP and 200 Nm of torque. This made it a popular choice for those seeking a powerful and fuel-efficient diesel sedan.

Thursday, 25 January 2024 01:09 PM The Amaze Diesel VX had a top speed of 170 kmph and an ARAI-certified mileage of 24.7 kmpl, making it one of the more efficient options in its segment. Its ground clearance of 170 mm and boot space of 420 litres were also notable features.

Friday, 15 December 2023 10:40 AM The Honda Amaze Diesel VX came with a 5-speed manual transmission and was known for its comfortable ride and handling, thanks to its soft suspension setup. This made it a favorite among both city and highway drivers. I think its comfort and performance made it a hard-to-beat option in its class.

Monday, 20 November 2023 05:58 PM The Amaze Diesel VX was available in several color options, including Radiant Red, Platinum White Pearl, Lunar Silver Metallic, Golden Brown Metallic, and Modern Steel Metallic. This variety helped it appeal to a wide range of buyers.

Wednesday, 25 October 2023 04:29 AM The diesel engine in the Amaze Diesel VX was a 1498cc, 4-cylinder, DOHC, i-DTEC unit, which provided a robust driving experience. This engine was particularly appreciated for its punchy performance and good mileage.

Saturday, 30 September 2023 06:29 AM The Amaze Diesel VX had a kerb weight of 1042 kg and a fuel tank capacity of 35 litres, making it well-suited for long drives. Its overall dimensions and turning radius of 4.9 meters also contributed to its ease of handling.

Tuesday, 15 August 2023 03:34 PM The Honda Amaze Diesel VX was part of the second-generation Amaze lineup, which received a mid-life update in 2021. This update included some cosmetic changes and feature enhancements, but the engine and gearbox remained the same.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 09:16 PM The Honda Amaze Diesel VX is known for its fuel efficiency, which is a crucial factor for many Indian buyers. In mixed driving conditions, you can expect a mileage of around 18-20 kmpl, though this can vary based on driving habits and road conditions. For city driving, it tends to deliver around 15-17 kmpl, while highway cruising can yield up to 22 kmpl. These figures make the Amaze a cost-effective choice for daily commuting and long road trips.
