Honda Amaze 2nd Gen

Step inside the Honda Amaze 2nd Gen, and you immediately get a sense of space and ease. The cabin doesn’t try to overwhelm you with flashy elements. Instead, it focuses on being airy, comfortable and user-friendly—exactly what you want in a daily-use sedan. The beige interior theme adds to that open feel, while the layout is simple enough for you to get familiar with in minutes.

Here’s what stands out inside:

• Easy-to-use touchscreen infotainment system
• Light, airy beige cabin theme
• Spacious rear seating area
• Practical storage spaces across the cabin

The way everything is put together makes a noticeable difference. You get soft, supportive seats, plenty of legroom—especially at the rear—and a boot that’s large enough for family trips without any stress. It’s the kind of car where long drives don’t feel tiring, and everyday usability just feels sorted. As Shams Raza Naqvi says, “Step inside and you immediately notice how airy and comfortable the cabin feels.”

Rear Seat Reality

If you’re someone who spends time in the back seat—or drives with family often—the Amaze truly shines here. The rear seat offers generous legroom, good under-thigh support and a comfortable seating angle, making it perfect for chauffeur-driven use as well. Whether it’s daily office runs or long journeys, passengers stay relaxed. As Shams Raza Naqvi rightly points out, “The rear seat is where the Amaze really stands out in this segment.”

The Honda Amaze 2nd Gen keeps its tech approach simple, and honestly, that’s part of its charm. Instead of overloading you with complicated systems, it gives you features that actually make everyday driving easier. Everything feels intuitive, so you don’t have to spend time figuring things out—you just get in and go.

Here’s what you get:

• Smart touchscreen infotainment system
• Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity
• Push-button start for added convenience
• Cruise control for relaxed highway driving

The usability of every feature is what we appreciated the most. The system responds well, the controls are easy to reach, and nothing feels distracting while driving. It may not be the most feature-loaded car in the segment, but it covers all the essentials perfectly. As Shams Raza Naqvi says, “Honda has kept things simple, but everything you need is here.”

When it comes to performance, the Honda Amaze 2nd Gen focuses on making your daily drives easy rather than exciting—and that’s exactly where it gets things right. You get a smooth petrol engine tuned for predictable and stress-free driving.

Engine

Acceleration

Out on the road, here’s what you’ll notice:

• Smooth and refined petrol engine
• CVT automatic feels seamless in traffic
• Light and easy city drivability
• Comfortable and relaxed highway cruising

What really stands out is how effortless the car feels, especially in stop-go traffic. The CVT takes away the constant gear changes, letting you focus on driving instead of working the car. On highways, it settles into a calm rhythm rather than pushing for speed. As Shams Raza Naqvi says, “The CVT makes city driving completely stress-free.”

The moment you start driving the Amaze, you can tell it’s been set up with comfort as the top priority. The suspension feels soft and forgiving, which means broken roads, potholes and uneven patches don’t really bother you much. In everyday city driving, this makes a big difference because the car simply glides over most imperfections without unsettling the cabin.

Here’s how it behaves on the road:

• Soft suspension absorbs bumps well
• Light steering makes city driving easy
• Easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces
• Predictable and confidence-inspiring handling

The ease of manoeuvring the car is what we liked. Whether you’re parking in a tight spot or cruising on the highway, the Amaze stays calm and easy to manage. It’s not built for aggressive cornering, but that’s not the point here. As Shams Raza Naqvi explains, “It’s tuned for comfort, and that shows the moment you hit bad roads.”

Fuel efficiency is one of the key reasons many buyers consider the Amaze, and it doesn’t disappoint. The petrol engine delivers balanced efficiency along with a smooth driving experience, making it well-suited for everyday use.

In real-world use, the CVT petrol offers convenience for city driving, while the manual delivers slightly better efficiency. So, it really comes down to what matters more to you—ease or outright efficiency.

When it comes to safety, the Amaze takes a straightforward and dependable approach. Honda has focused on building a strong, reliable structure and combining it with essential safety features that most buyers utilise daily. It may not be the most feature-loaded in the segment, but it covers the basics well.

Here’s what you get:

• Dual front airbags
• ABS with EBD
• ISOFIX child seat mounts
• Rear parking sensors

The overall build feels reassuring, and Honda’s reputation for reliability adds to that confidence. While newer rivals are pushing ahead with more advanced safety tech, the Amaze sticks to a proven formula. In terms of crash safety, buyers today often look at Bharat NCAP and Global NCAP ratings, and while the Amaze may not lead the segment here, it still offers a safe and dependable package for everyday use.
