Which Honda Amaze is the base model, and what does it cost?

The V, from ₹7.65L ex-showroom, is where the Amaze range starts. Features you get even here: 8 inch touchscreen, 6 airbags and ESC. What you give up against the top ZX: no ADAS, no blind spot monitor and no rear parking camera, and 11 more.

Which Honda Amaze is the top model, and what does it cost?

The ZX tops the range at ₹9.39L to ₹10.00L ex-showroom. Over the base V it adds level 2 (core suite) ADAS, blind spot monitor and rear parking camera, and 11 more.

What do the Honda Amaze trim names mean?

A trim is a level of equipment, and Honda uses 3 names for them on the Amaze: in its own order they run V, VX and ZX. The name is not the car, though: V alone covers 2 variants, differing in gearbox rather than in equipment, so the trim you settle on still leaves you a choice. Between them the 6 variants cost ₹7.65L to ₹10.00L, ex-showroom.

What fuel does the Honda Amaze run on?

Every one of the 6 Amaze variants on sale is a petrol, from ₹7.65L for the V Petrol MT, ex-showroom. You can have it either way: the cheapest petrol automatic is the V Petrol AT at ₹8.70L, ₹1.05L more than the same trim with a manual.

What is the Honda Amaze mileage?

The maker prints 18.7 km/l for the Petrol MT and 19.5 km/l for the Petrol AT (ICAT, Rule 115 CMVR). Officially E20 compliant. What it really returns on the road is in the next answer.

What mileage does the Honda Amaze really return?

Petrol AT: around 10.5 to 23 km/l, from 3 independent publishers, against the maker's 19.5 km/l. It swings a long way with how and where you drive, so plan on the bottom of that range.

Which cars does the Honda Amaze compete with?

The Amaze runs ₹7.65L to ₹10.00L ex-showroom, and 2 other sedans sell in the same money: the Tata Aeris from ₹5.30L and the Maruti Suzuki Dzire from ₹6.26L.

Is there a cheaper alternative to the Honda Amaze?

The Tata Aeris starts at ₹5.30L, which is ₹2.35L under the Amaze. It comes in CNG as well.

Sorted by price.

Crystal Black Pearl

₹8,02,290 to ₹11,99,340 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the V Petrol MT comes to ₹8,02,290 in Itanagar and ₹8,99,221 in Bengaluru, a difference of ₹96,931 on the identical car. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
