Honda Amaze Refreshed for 2025: Evolution, Not Revolution
Honda has taken the wraps off the third-generation Amaze, its popular compact sedan that will likely be arriving in South Africa in 2025.
While not a radical redesign, the new Amaze brings a host of updates to keep it competitive in a segment that includes rivals like the new Suzuki Dzire and the Hyundai Grand i-10 sedan.
The exterior styling has been refreshed with cues taken from the Honda Elevate SUV and the Honda Ballade. A bolder front grille, sleek LED headlights, and redesigned taillights give the Amaze a more modern and sophisticated look.
Inside, the Amaze boasts a completely redesigned interior that is more in line with Honda's current design language. A new dashboard features an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, and a more upscale feel.
The Amaze also gains valuable new safety features with the addition of Honda Sensing, which includes driver-assistance technologies like adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist.
Under the hood, the Amaze carries over its 1.2-liter petrol engine, delivering 66kW and 110Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between a 5-speed manual or a CVT gearbox.
While the 2025 Amaze may not be a complete reinvention, the updates to its styling, interior, and technology should help it maintain its appeal in the competitive compact sedan market. South African buyers can look forward to its arrival in 2025.
