2021 Honda Amaze Facelift will come with several visual upgrades along with new and updated features

The second-generation Honda Amaze was launched in 2018 and has already complete 3 years in the Indian market, which makes this an ideal time for a mid-life facelift. It has been one of the top-selling models in the company's Indian line-up. The updated Amaze is expected to come with a bunch of styling upgrades, along with several new and updated features. With regards to changes, we are likely to see a new grille, restyled bumpers, new alloy wheels, and possible new colour options as well. The car is also likely to come with revised headlamps and tail lamps featuring LED units. The cabin too will receive its fair share of updates, however, for the most part of it, we expect it to remain unchanged.
