Amaze 2018 Becomes Honda’s Best-Seller Again; Outsells City, WR-V

As expected, the second-gen Amaze has taken the crown back from the City and the Jazz-based WR-V to become Honda Car India’s best-selling model. The pre-launch bookings for the new Amaze began on 6 April and it was launched on 16 May 2018 at an introductory price of Rs 5.59 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The second-gen Amaze has breathed new life into the outright sales figures of the nameplate as the previous model faced a sales slump since 2016, with less than 2,000 units being sold every month on an average.

New Delhi, June 1st, 2018: Honda Cars India Ltd. (HCIL), leading manufacturer of passenger cars in India, registered monthly domestic sales of 15,864 units in May 2018 against 11,278 units in corresponding month last year, registering a growth of 41%.
