Q. I am 6ft 1inch tall and planning a compact sedan. I am slightly inclined towards Amaze and Aura. I'll be driving and rarely shifting to the rear seats. Which of the two would be a better suited for me? Prefered Fuel type - Petrol, Not looking for a daily commuter but more of a weekend/outstation ride so can do with Manual aswell, but no compromise on comfortable smooth ride and mileage.

I have recently bought Amaze cvt petrol BS6 model for my Dad, we have been using Maruti and Tata brand for the past 30 Yrs, this is first time we have changed brand, Honda Amaze is best car, this has got best Honda Engine in the world, I-Vtec is Honda flag ship engine, this engine is so refined and this can run for 11 lakh kilometers, if maintained and properly serviced, i have seen couple of youtube videos on this engine, and in realtime, in dubai one taxi driver was using Honda city petrol 2002 model which has got same engine i-vtec, meter reading was 4.8 lakh kilometers he was telling he never opened this engine, just changing engine oil, sprak plugs on time, major breakdown for him was Automatic transmission change. And every 90k kilometers timing belt change is required. Ok coming to my experience on amaze, this has got robust and refined engine, Average fuel shown in meter is 9.5 Kmpl, but in real time i am getting 13 km, just clocked only 1000km, need to wait till second service.But i have done a big mistake, instead of going for Petrol i would have gone for diesel cvt, it is so much refined then petrol. Interior quality is good, safety wise 5 star rating. Pick up is good and torquy engine, rear seat comfort is good.

Automatic Trim: Amaze > Aura Looks: Personal: Amaze > AuraManual: Turbo charged Aura > AmazeMileage: Aura > AmazeFeatures: Aura > AmazeBuild: Amaze > AuraComfort: I haven't driven Aura but Amaze feels comfortable and spacious.If you can wait go for Facelift version of Amaze which is yet to come next year, and by then Aura will mature a bit to have a better opinion.

If you are tall then you might have issue with driving Aura. Driving seats are raised so you'd need to bend your neck a bit to get a good view of the road besides Aura front seats are too curved with no adjustable headrest. I got cervical because of it. Now I always put a pillow when driving long
