Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Honda Amaze 2nd Gen
- One of the better looking sedans in the segment
- Automatic option with both engines
- Comfortable ride quality
- Rear seat experience
Honda City
- Front end looks sporty and modern with sleek lighting elements and a sharp design
- Offers excellent ride comfort on bad roads while maintaining a planted feeling at high speeds
- Gets refined engine options and a great real-world fuel efficiency with the strong hybrid setup
- Comes with good daily use features and does not leave you wanting for more

Honda Amaze 2nd Gen
- Lackluster petrol engine
- Misses some features like auto-dimming IRVM and adjustable rear headrests
Honda City
- Headroom in both the front and the rear seats is limited and tall people will struggle
- New features like the 10.1-inch touchscreen and the 360-degree camera feel like last minute thought and need better executions
- The petrol engine gets loud under load due to poor cabin insulation and acceleration also takes time with the CVT
