Honda Amaze is the entry-level sedan from the Japanese car marque which rivals the mighty Maruti Dzire
The 2025 Honda Amaze has finally been officially teased via an official sketch. The entry-level compact sedan was due for a thorough update for a long time now. Note that this upcoming version will mark the all-new 3rd generation iteration. Amaze has achieved decent success in our market. What has helped its sales, despite stiff competition from the rivals, is the fact that along with private individuals, even commercial fleet operators have taken a liking to it. In any case, as we are also approaching the launch of the new Maruti Dzire, it is interesting to see that even the Amaze will experience a generational upgrade.
2025 Honda Amaze Official Sketch Teased
The slightly concealed image showcases the front section of the new sedan. It certainly bears an aggressive demeanour with a bold front fascia. The image highlights a sleek headlamp design with two rectangular LED capsules and a thick slab, perhaps made up of chrome, running between them. I must mention here that this is quite similar to the current avatar. However, the grille section looks much broader and the bumper might be sportier. Apart from that, we also see sharp creases on the bonnet. Apart from that, we can expect tons of modern elements and features inside the cabin.
Under its hood, we will most likely get to witness the same engine which powers the current-gen model. This means a 1.2-litre 4-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol mill which churns out a decent 90 PS and 110 Nm of peak power and torque. The transmission options include either a 5-speed manual or a CVT automatic. Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Takuya Tsumura, President & CEO, Honda Cars India Ltd. said, “The Honda Amaze has always been a special product for us and our customers in India. As a pioneer in premium styling for entry sedans, the Honda Amaze has always set the standard for design and sophistication in its segment. With the 3rd generation, we are excited to take this to the next level, offering our modern Indian customers an enhanced premium package like never before.”
My View
The compact sedan category in our market has traditionally been dominated by the mighty Maruti Dzire since time immemorial. Still, the Honda Amaze has been able to carve out a niche for itself. I would like to stress how challenging that is. In fact, it is a testament to the vehicle itself how it has been able to woo customers consistently. Going forward, the new-gen model will certainly have its appeal with a new design and modern amenities. Let us wait a bit for more details.
