The Honda Amaze Special Edition commands a Rs 12,000 premium over the standard S variant. For the extra dough, it gets body decals on the side and ‘Special Edition’ badging on the boot lid.  

But the main update is on the inside. The Special Edition features a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, instead of the standard variant’s audio system. It also gets an armrest for front occupants and new beige seat covers. 

This particular variant also features a manual air-con, power-adjustable and foldable ORVMs, height-adjustable driver’s seat, rear centre armrest, and a multi-info display. Safety is covered by dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors.

The Honda Amaze Special Edition is offered with both the 90PS/110Nm 1.2-litre petrol engine and the 100PS/200Nm 1.5-litre diesel engine (80PS/160Nm in diesel-CVT). Both engines can be had with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a CVT. 

The introduction of this variant could drive up sales for Honda’s entry-level model. The additional features on offer justify the Rs 12,000 premium for the Amaze Special Edition. It locks horns with the Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Hyundai Aura, Ford Aspire and Tata Tigor. It will also take on the upcoming Renault sub-4 metre sedan.
