The diesel variant retains the 1.5L motor capable of producing 100hp power and 200Nm torque with the 5-speed manual transmission system. Meanwhile, the CVT automatic gearbox pairing produces 80hp power and 160Nm torque. The diesel-CVT combo is unique and not available with any of its competitors.

Honda Amaze – Fierce Rivalry

The Honda Amaze Sedan competes with a horde of compact sedans like the Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Ford Aspire, Tata Tigor, and the Hyundai Aura.

As of date, the Honda City and Amaze are the two sedans available from Honda in India. It also offers the hatchback, Jazz, and the compact crossover, WR-V.

Honda City Hybrid is also due for a launch in India, but Honda has not yet revealed the timeline. However, one can expect a new midsize SUV based on the Honda City platform by 2023 to compete with similar vehicles like Kia Seltos, Hyundai Creta, Tata Harrier, and the MG Hector.
