The Indian auto industry is likely to receive the next-generation models of Honda Amaze and Maruti Suzuki Desire. It has been reported that the updated version of Desire might be released somewhere in the festive season, while the compact sedan Amaze will hit the market end of this year.
It has been speculated that both models will be introduced in CNG and petrol avatars. These models are expected to get some noticeable cosmetic changes from both inside and outside.
What to Expect from Next-Gen Honda Amaze
Talking about the changes in Amaze first. It is expected to come with some major enhancements, featuring an improved headlight setup, refreshed bonnet, revised front fascia, and better road presence.
The vehicle might offer a similar vibe as the company’s larger sedan. Again, this is just speculation, a concrete clarification on this is yet to be cleared by the brand.
If some rumors are to be believed, the upcoming Honda Amaze is expected to be developed on the same architecture as the Elevate and City. However, it will offer a shorter wheelbase as compared to the mentioned siblings.

Under the hood, it seems like nothing will be changed. It will continue to be offered with same 1.2-liter, four-cylinder petrol engine. The unit will generate a maximum power of 88 bhp and 110Nm of peak torque. It will be paired with a 5-speed manual or a CVT transmission.
All About Nex-Gen Desire
The upcoming model might follow the footprints of the newly launched Swift. It is expected to get similar design elements as a four-generation hatchback. The company might include some trending features to attract more customers.

The vehicle is likely to come with a 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a first-in-segment sunroof, a wireless charger, and a refreshed dashboard among other improved features.
At the heart, it will use a 1.2-liter Z series three-cylinder petrol. It will churn out decent output of 80 bhp and 112Nm of peak torque.
