TOKYO: Honda India will make a debut in the diesel car market with the Amaze sedan, a car that will compete with models like Maruti Suzuki Dzire
and Tata Indigo CS.The Amaze, that will sport an all-aluminum 1,500cc engine, will be available in the market by the middle of next year even as a petrol version of the model has been launched in Thailand
To control the cost of the vehicle, Honda has decided to keep the length of the Amaze under 4 meters. This will enable the company avail lower excise duty on the model as it will be categorised as a small car which attracts a duty of 12% against the 24% mandated for bigger cars.

Its actually a sedan version od the Brio Hatch with a diesel heart. First diesel vehicle frm Honda. They already proved there mettle in Petrol cars hope this also comes up as a Performer..
Hope it beats sail.... Doesn't seems like that so far. Pricing can play the real game...... Dzire, Indigo, Etios and recently launched Sail are the biggest hurdle for Amaze.
