Honda Amaze gets BSVI treatment, prices start from Rs 6.09 lakh
Honda has come up with an updated BSVI Amaze with 1.2-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engine. To meet the emission norms of BSVI, Honda has done an advanced exhaust gas after-treatment to the Amaze by the implementation of NSC (Nox storage catalyst) and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter). The up-gradation has resulted in a price hike of Rs 9,000-17,000 for petrol variants and Rs 27,000-51,000 for the diesel trims.
The engines produce same power output as before, with the 1.2-litre petrol tuned in at 90PS and 110Nm, while the 1.5-litre diesel produces 100PS and 200Nm in 5-speed manual transmission, and 80PS and 160Nm with the CVT automatic transmission. The efficiency figures, as claimed by the company, for the 1.2-litre petrol is good for 18.6 kmpl in manual transmission and 18.3 kmpl with the CVT transmission. However, the 1.5-litre diesel manages to give 24.7 kmpl with manual and drops to 21 kmpl with the CVT transmission.
Rajesh Goel, Senior Vice President and Director, Marketing and Sales, Honda Cars India said, " Honda is committed to bring its latest and advanced environment-friendly technologies to the Indian market and today we have introduced BSVI version of our largest selling model Honda Amaze. Amaze will be our first BSVI diesel model in India offering the most powerful performance in the segment with best balance of fuel economy."
