Bookings for Honda Amaze ZX reach 60% – ADAS and in-demand features!

The third generation Honda Amaze was recently launched in India with a starting price of Rs 8 lakh (ex-showroom). This time, the carmaker has decided to sell the second-generation Amaze alongside the new model to private and fleet buyers. However, only the S and VX variants of the old model and the petrol-manual combo are on the market. Buyers can also opt for the petrol-CNG fuel option at the RTO-approved dealer level. Bookings for the new Honda Amaze have started across the country.

• Amaze ZX comes with ADAS and dual-tone alloys.
• Honda is selling two generations of Amaze simultaneously.
• The older Amaze was available in petrol-CNG fuel options, but only at dealer level.
• The new Amaze does not have a sunroof but comes with LaneWatch and connected car technology.

The high-end, fully loaded ZX model accounts for nearly 60% of total bookings. This trim comes with two unique features: the Honda Sensing ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) suite with adaptive cruise control and two-tone 15-inch alloy wheels. Honda Sensing offers advanced safety features including lane keep assist, collision mitigation system, lead departure notification, adaptive cruise control, road departure mitigation system and automatic high beams.

The new Amaze also comes with LaneWatch system, which provides a clear view of the area around the vehicle to help the driver change lanes. It has a camera, usually mounted below the right passenger side mirror, that sends live footage or images to a screen in the center of the cabin. The ZX trim also offers things like automatic climate control with Max Cool mode, rear AC vents, connected car features, wireless charger, rearview camera, Alexa compatibility, rear defogger, remote engine start, push start/stop, and more Function buttons and LED projector fog lights.

The new Honda Amaze completely lacks sunroof, tire pressure monitoring system and footwell lighting, while its main rival Maruti Suzuki Dzire comes with these features. Although the new Dzire lacks ADAS kit, it is equipped with a 360-degree surround-view camera.

Honda’s compact sedan is available in six monotone colors namely Moon Silver Metallic, Radiant Red Metallic, Golden Brown Metallic, Platinum White Pearl, Meteor Gray Metallic and Obsidian Blue Pearl. All variants of the 2024 Honda Amaze are powered by a 90bhp, 1.2L, 4-cylinder petrol engine mated to two transmission options – 5-speed manual and CVT automatic.
