Rs 9 lakh Honda car to get a major update!
The automaker from Japan which has recently launched the Elevate is also working on enhancements on the Amaze. This compact sedan which scores heavily on space and safety is jacked up to receive a generation update in 2024. Honda plans to unveil the next-generation Amaze with a slew of upgrades next year. What could the 9 lakh Honda car get? Read below.
Rs 9 lakh Honda car – Design
The new generation Amaze is likely to use the updated version of the PF2 platform which is also expected in the new mid-size SUV. However, the Amaze being a compact sedan its length would measure less than 4 metres. Talking about the design, we can expect a major refresh being a new-generation model. We can expect Honda to continue with the aggressive design langauge of the Amaze. Side-profile will also get a major revamp with new side skirts, wheel arches etc. At the rear, Honda could also join the connected tail lamp bandwagon.
Features
Honda has plans to initially launch the new generation Amaze in the overseas market. Therefore we could see many premium touches now with an updated interior layout. There are reports about the new floating setup for the touchscreen which resembles other Honda sedans. Other features might include a premium sound system, automatic AC, powered mirrors, leatherette upholstery and many other features. With ADAS becoming the norm, we can expect Honda to add Honda Sensing on the new-generation Amaze.
Rs 9 lakh Honda car – Specifications
The engine option on this Honda is likely to remain the same with the 1.2-litre petrol engine. No diesel would be on offer making it a petrol-only model. The 1.2-litre mill makes 89bhp and 110nm of torque would be on offer mated to a 5-speed manual or a CVT gearbox. Could Honda tune it differently for the new model? Only time will tell. Moreover, the question of it getting a factory-fitted CNG option is on the fence.
Rs 9lakh Honda car – Launch and Pricing
The launch of this new sedan is expected in the second half of 2024. Once launched, the car would go against rivals like Tata Tigor and Hyundai Aura. There are also talks about the new generation update of the Maruti Dzire with strong hybrid options. Hence, it would be worth waiting how these new-gen cars stand against each other. What about the pricing? Currently, the Amaze starts from Rs 8.37 lakh and goes to Rs 11.34 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). With the new-gen, we can expect prices to reach Rs 10 lakh and go to Rs 13 lakh (on-road, Mumbai).
