    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    Exterior: I own an i20 so compared to that style quotient needs a big time improvement. Rear of the car is better designed than the front,especially the tail lamp cluster is cool at night. Low power bulbs and a horn that rivals and I fact fails against a scooty! Honda shouldn't have compromised on the sheet metal thickness. The usual "thud" sound while closing the door in German vehicles or even an i20 is missing. Which takes away the confidence on the safety aspect.

    Interiors: Plain simple and uninteresting. What hits u when u is the poor quality of plastics that have been used. Glove box is essentialy jus a hole in the dashboard in the name of making more leg room Honda has messed it up by scooping out portions of the box. No dead pedal in the foot well,with ur left foot having to do nothing in the auto version. It is quite awkward. I especially have a problem with the differential height levels between accelerator pedal and the break pedal, with the former being at a lower level than the latter.this makes it difficult each time u have to lift ur leg fully up to engage the break pedal. Very poor thigh support aggravates the problem. Finding the right seating position is difficult due to the above reason. Good space and Decent rear seats with centre arm rest is a good upmarket style. Steering wheel is comfortable to hold with good contour. No CD player natural as we now hardly use it when USB and aux slots are provisioned Along with integrated 2din audio system. mobile phones and coins can be parked in the holes in Dash and near gear knob. Big water bottle can be stored in the rear seat doors while small ones in the front door socket.

    Engine: Frugal 1.2 litre engine has enough grunt to make it thru daily office commute. I would be confident of taking it over difficult urban obstacles! it returns a decent 9 to 10kM per litre considering this being an auto. Manual am said gives 12 to 13 In city. Eco mode is very helpful especially if u r a first time automatic user. It is peppy when u down the gas pedal but I wou recommend it if u r a person who's concerned about mileage. Well refined engine that gives a lot of pleasu to drive. The usual  Honda symbol. Overall a good car if u r looking for a small sedan with a good brand name and value for money.
