- Last week, we reported that Honda would be discontinuing three models from their lineup leaving their showrooms with just two products - the Amaze and the City. That sparked a lot of questions from all of you, asking if it was a sign of the manufacturer slowly withdrawing from our market or was it really to make space for their new SUV, as they claim.
To understand, we discuss what makes Honda what it is, take a trip down the memory lane about their illustrious past and what their future is going to be.

53:23 If we skip your videos for a minute, it's like a light-year gone.
Every second of your videos is packed with so much information.
You should do these videos in English too, many people are maybe missing you because they don't know Malayalam..(we don't want to miss your punchy Malayalam Tough Life dialogue, but people should know about you guys without the boundaries of languages.)
[Nb: of course, I am subscribed Petrobug too🤭👍🏻]
At least It will be useful for foreign marketing researchers of a foreign car company to understand "What is Indian automobile industry" from a TH-cam channel.
39:31 Just ignore them, പിന്നെ ഇങ്ങനെ പറയുന്നവർ 0 .1% ഉണ്ടാകു. അതു വേണം, അവർ പറയണം, അല്ലെങ്കി കണ്ണ് കിട്ടും നിങ്ങൾക്ക്, കാക്ക കൊത്തും നിങ്ങളെ.
ഞാൻ എന്റെ ഈ അക്കൗണ്ടിൽ നിന്ന് subscribe ചെയ്തിട്ടുള്ള മലയാളം യൂട്യൂബ് channels 3 or 4 എണ്ണമേ ഉള്ളു.അതിൽ ഒന്ന് നിങ്ങളാണ്.എൻ്റെ വേറെ അക്കൗണ്ടിലും സബ്സ്ക്രൈബ് ചെയ്തിട്ടുണ്ട് , കാരണം അതിലെ relevent ആയിട്ടുള്ള content തന്നെയാണ്..thumbnail ഓ video caption ഓ നോക്കാറില്ല Talking Cars ൻ്റെ വീഡിയോ ആണെന്ന് കണ്ടാൽ just click and watch അത്രേയുള്ളു.
നിങ്ങൾ വിഡിയോയിൽ കാടുകേറിപോയാലും അതും ഒരു information ആണ്.
See, Jason Cammisa's Hagerty channel ചെയ്യും പോലെ well scripted, rich environment, extreme sound effect, music, helicam shot, slow motion ഒന്നുമില്ല.
Jeremy Clarkson നു british brand നോട് ഉള്ള ഒരു സോഫ്റ്റ് കോർണർ കൊണ്ട് Tesla / Ferrari യോടൊക്കെ ചെയുന്നെപോലെ weird ആയിട്ടുള്ള comparison ഒന്നും നിങ്ങൾ ചെയ്യുന്നില്ല, (പിന്നെ ഇവർക്കൊക്കെ salary കൊടുക്കുന്ന കമ്പനിയെ ഒന്ന് സ്മരിക്കാം,അവർക്കും ഇണ്ടല്ലോ ഓരോരോ പ്രാരാബ്ധങ്ങൾ.)
നിങ്ങൾ നിങ്ങൾക് ഇഷ്ടപ്പെട്ട ബ്രാൻഡിനെ നിങ്ങൾ സപ്പോർട്ട് ചെയ്തു സംസാരിക്കുന്നില്ല. അതുതന്നെ വല്യ കാര്യാ,ആർക്കായാലും ഇഷ്ടപ്പെട്ട ബ്രാൻഡിനെ ഒന്ന് ന്യായികരിക്കാൻ തോന്നും, നിങ്ങൾ അതുപോലും ചെയ്യുന്നില്ല.
ആ ..അതുപോട്ടെ അപ്പൊ ഞൻ പറഞ്ഞു വന്നത്
ഇതൊന്നും ഇല്ലാഞ്ഞിട്ടും, അവരുടെ videos യിൽ നിന്നും കിട്ടുന്നതിനേക്കാൾ ഇൻഫർമേഷൻ നിങ്ങളുടെ 45/55 minutes ൽ 5 - 6 screenshot/pictures കൊണ്ട് നിങ്ങൾ പറയുന്നുണ്ട്.
eg: mini cooper ൻ്റെ 3rd piston ൻ്റെ piston ring നു complaint ഉണ്ടെന്നു പറയുന്ന റിവ്യൂ channel ഒക്കെ ഞാൻ ആദ്യായിട്ട കാണുന്നേ .
എൻ്റെ അഭിപ്രായത്തിൽ മലയാളത്തിലെ എന്നല്ല world ലെ തന്നെ one of the best ചാനൽ ആണ് നിങ്ങളുടേത്.
അതുകൊണ്ട് യൂട്യൂബിൽ നിങ്ങൾക്കു T-Series നേക്കാൾ subscibers ആയാലും അത്ഭുതപ്പെടാനില്ല.
So All the best bro,..all the best
Wellsaid

As a Honda owner.. I was fearing the day this video would appear…!!!
Pretty soon buddy, good luck! My friends are all sold their old citY/ Brio :)
😑. Here also... City5th gen
There is no point to sell, Still the reliability is pretty nice @@MG-fi9ir
I'm a Hyundai service Advisor in Ernakulam. In my Experience, I have met more than 10 customers who have updated their car from City to Creta. And, still they worship that honda experience. Such a poor Market study by Honda
Honda service was exemplary back in the day.
@@TalkingCars Like always nice and Informative Video. Expecting such contents.

I am a Honda fanboy. Three of us in our family each have owned/continue to own the Honda City. Having no option to upgrade is a real heartbreaking situation. Wonderful discussion Vivek and JD - much love and appreciation.
53 mins of happiness ❤❤
this is premium content. Was thoroughly engaged and didn't notice the hour pass by. Im really glad that you two speak my language both literally and figuratively and my heart goes out to other enthusiasts in the country who miss out on this. cheers boys!
What I feel is that Honda is loosing it's retro days charm across world markets , not just in India.

We would like to have these episodes on all brands regardless of downfall or success over time. Car brands and two wheeler brands in India
I feel like if Honda split their better/expensive models under Acura brand and everything else as Honda, they could have retained a lot of old customers and taken more sales for lower models too.
It's too late the competition is too high buddy
My relationship with Honda starts with Activa, loved the scooter so much for its reliability and comfort.. the best thing is...in lockdown when everyone was stuck I rode this 10year scooter for Kozhikode to Pathanamthitta... Next one was Honda amaze... As you said previously what I need was a mini city and i got exactly what I want... Finally I took Honda hness... Everything I owned was a Honda... The factor which drives towards to Honda was it's comfort, refinement and reliability.... And it's so heart breaking to see a such a great company ending up like this... Wishing to see some good time for the brand in the future...
Don't say about Activa comfort, that means you haven't tried Wego or other scooter! Blind faith!
@@MG-fi9ir My friend was having one... Its a nice scooter... Loaded with features... I have also recommended it for Some of my friends... But now... Mine is still running.. but my friend gave up on his vego... Also I don't know why I dont see that many vego on the road also... Infact I can't even recollect the last time spotting a vego... But I could see even gen1 Activa running... Well that says it all... You can call it blind faith.. go on... I have my own reasons
I have my Wego with 1.25km odo running.
You won't see much TVS Wego on roads because more people had a blind faith towards activa because of the fact that Activa was the first among the 4 stroke scooters in India and hence it was more recognition with the masses. TVS discontinued Wego when they launched 2nd gen Jupiter in the market. Jupiter is a far better product in riding comfort and all other aspects than the current Activas. Activa still sells more just because of its brand name"Activa". Hypothetically, If Jupiter was called/branded as an Activa it would be selling 5 times more than the real Activas. People are buying Activa just because of its brand name Activa. Both jupiter and even the discontinued wego is better in handling, usable torque, braking, best in absorbing pot holes, better pillion comfort and every aspect better than an Activa. I have a Wego and an Activa in my family. The discontinued Wego is better rider than even the current gen Activa.
The new gen TVS Jupiter is another level.
Comfort driving in activa? Is this a troll?
@@niriap9780 so.. coming to my Jupiter story... My cousin bought one... Because it was a better value for money scooter.. best in class... I also supported... Took the delivery went home... But noticed some wierd noise while deceleration So we thought may it's because it's new vehicle... First service done.. still the same... later figured out it was a faulty clutch... Service people said it was normal... But we were pretty sure.. at last got it replaced... So the thing is... In production There should be some quality tests at different levels... This issue got unnoticed in all these tests... What if this fault was identified after the warranty period... May be it is a great scooter but I for me naaaah....
I own a 2006 model Honda city ZX(dolphin facelift) which is a golden car. But the colour is actually called New warm silver. Now he is 16 years old but still it is what it was in 2006. The feel remains the same. What an engineering masterpiece !!!!!!!. The real HONDA. Each and every region is perfectly crafted. Right now the odo is clocked around 135000 km. All the services were done at the Peninsular Honda Cochin. Even there is no change in the feel of riding at 40 km/hr. Butter smooth ride. Sleek gear shifts. Light clutch. Silent and calm engine. At the earlier times i would check on the tachometer at the traffic signals to check whether the engine is on/off. Because there were no engine noises or vibrations or rattling sounds inside the cabin. The only sound we would hear was the rotating sound of the tyre. The car was very much reliable too. Till now I haven't faced any mechanical/electrical issues or replacements from the car. Really a hassle-free one. At that time Honda made things which would last so many years. And of course the ethics and the craftsmanship of Japanese engineering too. So many parts were Made in Japan. Even the lids of the brake,clutch reservoirs had Japanese writings on them. Every one says that the Toyota is the king of reliability, I agree but the honda is also the same. I'm saying because I really experienced that.
The rear seats were so spacious. I think the modern sedans doesn't have that much space in the rear area. I know there are so many haters for the dolphin model but the facelift was so beautiful compared to the dolphin. It had the I-DSI technology. At that time people neglected it because it didn't had the legendary V-TEC in it. But right now because of the hike in the fuel prices the I-DSI is becoming into action I think. Really sad to see the condition of Honda right now. Honda was launched in India in 1998 and till 2014 they produced cars with petrol engines only. At the same time other manufacturers made cars with diesel engines too. So Honda competed with the other companies with their single petrol engines. So we can easily guess the quality and range of the REAL HONDA NA PETROL ENGINES..... And also the people's faith in them...!!!!!! Whatever happens I am and will be a Honda fan boy till I die. Because the Honda brand really got carved inside my heart and my mind. So all i wanna say is that HONDA IS HONDA!!!!!!!!......... ------- By a die hard Honda fan boy ......
I understand your pain.. ( I have driven that car.. its 👌🏻)
Also
If the vezel would have been launched then it would have been the most selling SUV in that category as it looks 🤩❤️ both interior and exterior wise.

Actually all the points you guys mentioned, Honda is doing already but in 2 wheeler segment😅, brand revamp, new international lineups, higher premium etc..
Yes Bigwing strategy and their expansion through premium segment is commendable. Going they do better from here

Cool video! Have so many honda cars in our family.. Jazz, wrv, brio, city...each with their own merits and demerits. .
This video gave me a perspective about the brand that I never had before..
Side note- its adorable how you both didn't remove your seat belts even though you were in a stationary car for an hour😀
Very nice...
I would like to add that in the immediate future dealers will be forced to display cars of multiple brands under the same roof like in abroad. Then only the business will be financially viable. Like european nations United together to form european union ..car companies should think about establishing dealers with multiple brands . So that they can be a part of much larger economy

Honda should take necessery steps as taken by nissan for magnite as compact suv segment is growing larger day by day
Heard that Honda Jazz will be stopped by year end. It is the best premium hatchback available in India.
Butter-smooth engine, unmatched reliability, longevity of the classic ivtec engine and so much space inside the car. These positives should be highlighted while marketing the great vehicle.
It is an international model and is sold in many countries. A legendary car with a long legacy.
It is sad for prospective customers if the car is going to be withdrawn from Indian market...
They should update the car and market it well instead of pulling it out of the market.
Accepting honda was becoming mediocre was the toughest phase of a true honda fan boy 😔. City was always poor man's 3 series . Such was Honda's prowess and brand value. Waiting for old days of glory of honda, still oogling at previous gen citys.
I skipped backwards just to make sure if I'm not missing any point . Really informative and correct.
Hey everybody ☺️ welcome to talking cars🔥
Felt like going through the history book of Honda India..precise and well explained...keep it up guys.kudos..nice presentation
I own a Honda city ivtec 2010 model and still with us. Honda reliability and build quality, that’s something incredible. Frankly, it still one of the best car compared to my friends and relatives other models. Sadly I am stuck with this car, and don’t know what to upgrade. The car also in a great condition and can go smoothly another 5+ year without many major works.
Firstly, big fan of your work. Just therapeutic listening to you two, talking about cars, life and everything in between. Just like this series where you trace the journey of car companies who failed to live up to their promise, please do a video on the other end of the spectrum, maybe what makes Maruti click even after ages, or what Hyundai did right when most others lost the plot.
Also, it would be nice if you could do one on Tata vs Hyundai rivalry that's really hotting up.
TIA.
What nonsense you are talking.Last 7 years iam using Honda car.And iam happy with my car.With my car iam traveling to Bangalore 4 to 5 times .But car is so cam and fuel consumption is very law So stop your talk.
"The moral is don't try to become someone else, be yourself" 😁
JD, your idioms helped me to crack IELTS 🔥
My parents have owned nothing but Honda cars for the last 23 years, 3 iterations of the City (99', 07', 17'), a 2011 Jazz and a 2014 Brio. Two of which are still in our possession. Apart from squeaks and rattles in the later versions, they have all been absolutely trouble free and have never let us down.
The 07' city and 11' Jazz were the cars I learnt how to drive in and thrashed the living daylights out of during the first few years of over-zealous driving, they never complained. Its really sad to see the company going the way it is.
Guess we'll have to look elsewhere for our next car.. Sigh.
PS: Great video as per usual guys.👍😀
City hatchback as replacement to the Jazz / W-RV lineup.
Turbo petrol variant for the City V trim (not the VX, not the ZX, not above ZX).
Hybrid City without ADAS and other stuff. Just a ZX trim with hybrid system.
H-RV / Vezel introduction.
2000 Civic either hatchback or sedan under the 2500 import scheme.
500 Honda E as well.
Makes sense. Good line up.

Once a Ford owner always a ford lover ❤️
Agree to every point, but felt Brio is a lot underrated.have it for the last 10 years (yes, the Honda badge was a huge deciding factor)..run 1.2 lakh km..is an awesome city car, bullet proof reliability & go kart like handling, Yes feels cheap for a Honda, but drives like a Honda.. maintenance have been fairly cheap..But yes, making a sedan & SUV out of it was too much. That interior was okay for 4.8 lakh(no noticeable rattles till now), but is far too basic for anything above that
Actually brio is more relevant now. I believe if brio AT is in the market today, there would be more takers. There is no proper automatic in the current market(torque converter,CVT or DCT) below grand i19 dct now. And a lot of buyers still prefer AT or CVT over DCT.
@@funda321 just saw a report that Citroen is launching the C3 with Aisin 6 speed TC auto in January, would make for a good mechanically sorted hatchback.. would it be reliable? Can only wait and watch..
The fastest car in city..hehe... I could literally go through traffic like a knife through butter
@@Alex-pv3jx yup 😁, also the light yet fairly direct steering, good visibility , and decent bottom end( when compared to jazz) makes it really enjoyable in city, I have done great deal of highway drives too and for such a tiny(but surprisingly spacious for its size) car , it fared decently..the major downsides are boot space & choppy ride..
@@arjunjeevaraj661 yeah me too! I loved the gear box too. Very slick shifting!

I agree to what you guys said in this video... I'm also a Honda owner but their product and service they gave me shattered my thoughts on the company... Never even in dreams I have thought that Honda products here would go down... Hoping that they would make a comeback as fast as possible.... Thanks for making genuine and unbiased contents 👍👍

As I know, Honda never had their cars as Public Taxi in the UAE, which actually maintained its gentleman's car status (Other taxi cars were mostly Toyota Camri, Innova, Nissan Altima, Hyundai Sonata, Elantra etc)
🎉💥
May be it's your own opinion (Gentleman's car).compare to Toyota Honda's spares more expensive also less fuel economy
That could be a reason why Honda's are mostly owned by well salaried professionals or enthusiasts. Not sure the exact reason why they aren't used as Taxis in UAE.
Then how come 70% of uae roads are toyota vehicles?
All are low salaried people?.for constant usage toyotas are no 1 .here in uae Honda considering same level of Toyota, Nissan, kia ,Hyndai. But they have verity of models in their line up
@@hannaandian1276 1: you will find civic and CRV alot. nowdays you wont find kia and hyundai cars that much in UAE when you compare it with Honda
2: Spare parts price for both HONDA and toyota cars are similar. If you own both cars you will know it.
3:The reason honda cars are not used as taxi is not because of the fuel economy or costly spare parts
Many car manufacturers do what is called “fleet sales", where they sell large numbers of low-feature cars to companies like rental agencies and taxi companies. Honda doesn't want to do this
Exactly my thoughts. That honda tried to become Maruti. Sad to see honda in this situation, my first car was honda city zx. As JD said, it was a light car with good efficiency and quality.

It's not that they are not showing commitment, it's just that other companies are far ahead in updating themselves!

The fact is Honda's sales are significantly declined in three major market like China, EU and US because of their anti EV stands. Toyota is in next.
Similar case with the honda 2 wheelers too i guess.

Honda cars are special. Please introduce a new suv in Indian market . Driving dynamics and refinement of honda is superb. But lack of market study and slow upgradation made honda to the Present situvation.

What about chevrolet ? They are still doing well in many countries but why not in India? How do they compare with Honda? .. would like to know wether they have any future in India again. would like to know about their Engines and tech too.. Thumps up to your good work
Indians don’t like good cars
You cannot compare Honda with Chevrolet! Chevrolet optra can't be even compared to Japanese Honda! Optra is light years ahead but of course they can't survive in India

I guess you are still happy with your ambassador, don't reply if you don't know about the cars
The worst thing I hate about honda in India is that they never share their future strategies. They don't disclose what products will come at what segments . They should learn from VW group they shared their 8000 crore investment and new product line , new platform introduction , showcase of a concept , next year you get a final production model . This also helped in regaining market share and customer trust . You could not have expected this from a VW 10 years ago. Honda always keeps everything a secret which is the first step of losing trust of a potential customer. As you said every brand should have a vision of what they will introduce in future
Chevy "promised" a USD 1bn investment plan for India back in 2015/16. We all know how that went 😆
I feel Honda should come up with a new Sedan along with an SUV. They are very much familiar with the sedan segment and if they manage to bring a car with a great engine and an overall package they might be saved because of the limited options in the segment.
Vtec kicked in yooo. (but now I'm obsessed with two cylinder kicked in yoo) :)
HRV would have been the perfect car for Indian market. Right size. Cool looks. No nonsense car. Just loved it when I saw HRV in person in Malaysia. Waiting for HRV.
Explains well where Honda as a carmaker in India is now, and more importantly, why. In 2020 we were planning to get the new Civic as our daily runner, after seeing the vehicle on the road. However, when we inspected the vehicle at their showroom in Thrissur, we were dissuaded by the compromises they have made (IMO) in the build. The engine specs were also not that impressive. Besides, they didn’t offer a diesel automatic, which was an absolute requirement for my wife who prefer automatic transmissions (at one point she used to drive a manual 4x4, but not now due to health issues). We later settled for a Volvo S60, a decision that we think was right, given what a beast that machine is. Thank you for the post.
Good luck with maintenance!
Yes, MG. Service centre for Volvo is only at Ernakulam for the entire state. That’s fine with me as I drive Tcr-Ekm daily. Used it for about 83k kms so far. Only regular oil changes and minor stuff like pads, filters etc. Touch wood, no issues so far. Besides, there are reliable workshops that offer good service for Volvo cars in Kerala, if one wish to service it outside the authorised service centre.
@@bijofrancis7063 My dream brand Sir. Volvo is the synonym for safety. 👍
Not worth it bro!
Great experience, I am a honda fan but after your video I have changed my mind. Toyota is growing like anything. Another thing is all the luxury and super luxury brands have got a space in india. Really Honda has to rethink and come back. We need this type of videos, and try to include 2 wheeler's will be a great help for all.
A much relevant discussion on the current scenario of Honda. I think Honda still holds a place in the minds of buyers (including enthusiasts) and it would not be much difficult for them to re establish in the market. As JayD said, bringing some cars under the 2500 import rule might bring back some glory to the Japanese brand. The dealers will also be happy if Honda does it.
Also would like to hear some success stories of auto brands in India like Tata or Mahindra..How the Indian brands changed their image and managed to bring customer confidence.
To be Frank, nobody cares about this brand anymore when they are taking decision to buy a new car! Bcz other manufacturers provide bang for the buck at affordable rates!
@@MG-fi9ir What you said is right , but if Honda brings some new products in the future, just like compact SUVs I think that people would surely consider going for a Honda.
17:30 You guys are spot on with brands like Ford, Fiat and Honda on how they disappoint their loyal customers ✌️
ഫോർഡ് ന് എന്ത് പറ്റി എന്നൊരു വീഡിയോ പണ്ട് കണ്ടത് ഓർക്കുന്നു 😉😉
സത്യം പറഞ്ഞാൽ even after watching it almost an hour, i was sad that the video is over. ചുമ്മാ കേട്ടിരുന്നു പോവും
As enthusiasts, we’ve always been looking forward to have nice cars from Honda as in the recent years there hasn’t been anything from them so exciting that it became the talk of the town. But what Honda is currently doing with their portfolio makes us lose even that small ray of hope. It’s really sad that an international car marker like Honda couldn’t pull it off and adapt to the changing Indian market. Fingers crossed about their future in india🤞
Honda city 5th gen is a gem! wat u talking
@@kill3rbyysight brother, let me make my point clear. For an international car maker like Honda which had premium appeal and fantabulous quality as the USP of their cars is now pathetically left with just two cars in their portfolio for one of the world’s largest car market which puts a big question mark about their future in the Indian market. And about the 5th gen city, as u said it is indeed a gem in its own way. But it has its own shortcomings too. The 1.5 NA ivtec is one hell of a engine. In spite it being rev happy, nobody redlines it at 7200rpm all the time. Usable power makes more sense than outright power. And we don’t get the 1.0 turbo petrol here which is a miss too. The 1.5 idtec even though being frugal it is lacklustre when it comes to performance and has refinement issues. The city if it’s traced back to its roots, the first gen Og city, the 5th gen city never comes near it when it is looked from an enthusiastic perspective considering the time both the cars were launched. The city has evolved itself into a perfect family car with each generation from being the default enthusiast’s favourite.
da thing is.... is og city exterior, space, interior, comfort and ride quality matches the 5th gen city?? not even close.. so u do hv to keep up with da time even though if u hv to cut it down from somewhere else as perfect car doesn't exist... talking from enthusiast point of view.. I hv driven other sedans but da feel 5th gen city gives is amazing.. handling, engine, gear shifts, clutch, chasis even in Autocar track day.. it did beat all cars under 30 lac range.. & was damn close to bmw.. car journalists r pouring praises for its qualities.. sometimes we just over demand as human nature is.. even heard ppl sayin they that 5th gen gives a sorts car feel.. Honda condition is due to interest shift to SUVs .. ppl r goin for plastic bodies cus they want some fancy features and big presence on road in order to satisfy their fake ego... very less percentage of ppl care for driving dynamics most of them dnt even know wat it means.... so it doesn't mean if something is underperforming.. it's bad... there r many examples in movies, singers etc. Popularity is not equal to quality..
U mean the 5th gen city is close to bmw in driving dynamics and has the feel of a sports car!! Then what will u say about the new German twins that have set benchmarks to handling in that segment. And u say the city isn't a perfect car. What I say is it is perfect in a different way by being a family car and not the enthusiast way. Get it. And the mention about the first gen city was not a direct comparison. It was just to stress upon the fact that how the city has evolved over the time with the character changed totally and I did mention about the time both these cars were launched. With that into consideration the 1st gen city was ahead of it's time. The Indian market has shifted towards suv's as u said. As a car manufacturer isn't it Honda's responsibility to have one on their own stable when it has become the most lucrative segment of the Indian car market. That too comes under keeping up with time as u said. It is about Honda as an international brand as such and how they've failed to give us what we deserve and not about city alone.
u r speaking like watever i said is my own opinion... dude there is literally video on youtube about the lap time I'm talking about here... search for auto car india track day... spread your hate somewhere else... Honda is unmatchable in standards even by your German twin sweethearts
Honda is having lots of hybrid cars globally. Really fuel efficient. I don't know why they don't introduce to India? Maybe transformation to electric car is much rapid in India.
What Honda really needs to do is bring couple of boldly styled SUV's with good performance and features list to compete with Creta and Brezza immediately.
SUV 🤮
New WR-V 🔥
I have worked with Honda and was a fan of them. Some of the mistakes they made are summarised below.
1) When new car firms came to India, many of their hard-core expert professionals left the firm, who were once part of the firm and brought them to glory. That happened after 2015! 2) Do not understand, why they are hesitating to bring their world-class models to India. They could have brought in Vezzel, HRV etc.
3) Blindly following a leading brand in India, Honda compromised much on quality. That gave them some edge at a time, but when quality was dropped without compromising on the price, slowly the old Honda fan base eroded to German car makers!
4) Being a better brand, without bringing in world-class products, they tried to fool the people with their routine outdated models which were still overpriced when compared to the new latest models on the market.
5) No consistency. Honda Civic and CRV were launched and withdrawn in no time, taking away some of their old customers (Mobilio & BRV left earlier). I had a 2008 Civic and a 2013 Brio and was willing to go with Honda further.
But no models came after that which was a fit for me! These are some of my observations. Thank you.

Another Nokia replication story of depletion owing to failure of evolution, Excellent analysis and delivery. Every Honda owner and fanboy should watch this. Great job guys. Epic autobiography and reference material.
Government should stop considering car as luxury commodity and bring down the taxes. They are just having the lion's share by doing nothing for the industry nor the customer. 😭😭
That's not correct, where are the roads to ride these commodities then,?
8% of indians own cars. and per capita income at 91k. what if not a luxury would owing a car be?
@@varunmenon7887 Agree this for argument sake. But Kerala is one of the states with max car ownership and guess what, we have the max road (state) taxes. My point is in view of the manufacturers. Who doing good is important to our economy. Also two wheeler penetration is much higher. Still taxes are high on them too 😭
@@MG-fi9ir Considering the tax collected to condition of roads and other facilities, we are paying more even if u compare with developed economies.
I really like the design language of Honda cars..I think Honda makes the cleanest designs is India may be along with VW..
41:10 Many analysts say Honda would be the first Japanese legacy automaker to fold and collapse, with the onslaught of EVs ,as they don't have any EVs in pipeline or even on their drawing board
Your preparation and lag-free performance have made the two of you stand out, this is a very informative and historical book for Honda. Thankfulness.
Waiting for vedio.... You guys promised in the live....

As a car enthusiasts
Honda nirthi pokunnath bhayankara vishamam undakunna oru incident akum.
Angane illathirkatte.
Jazz nte oru new version enkilum varanam oru pratheekshaku
E poya companykal onnum try cheyyanjittu alla, eviduthe taxation and inflation anusarichu evide alukalku income illa. Fault is with the government, Hyundai allathe vere ethu international brand India il successful aayi undu, India is not just a difficult market it is a failing economy
If one or two companies are leaving you can say it's their fault, if everyone except two are leaving then the problem is somewhere else
@Aswin Biju hyundai and kia both are same selling same cars, pinne matte Chinese company bhayangara successful onnum alla, toyota anel suzuki vandi vilikunnu karanam avarde global models evide chilavakilla, evide ethra global auto giants undu? Why everyone wants to leave?
Answer is same as why every middle class and above are leaving this sinking ship
@Aswin Biju ....then what about Nissan mistubishi and Renault...they r also on alliance...just making a car ie magnite and kiger...city and amaze r being sold still in good numbers....and Volkswagen group still don't have much sales u can check their sales...slavia and virtues together is not able outsell city in the segment and what honda is lacking is their csuv and hopefully they launch it within a yr
@Aswin Biju have ever sat in New city and compared with 3 cylinder Germans in that price point...?
@Aswin Biju just see vitus vs city camparo by Faisal khan in fasbheam...I test drove both city and slavia as I was considering a sedan under 15 lakh and I knw the difference...
@Aswin Biju skoda is not joint venture with Volkswagen and kia is not joint venture with hyundai...skoda is owned by Volkswagen and similarly kia is owned by hyundai globally...
I purchaised Honda amaze ..this week comes in road .naturally we will think this topic ..but I liked thisft
Honda was the safest car in its segment if you look the Honda city from 2008 from its base model 2 airbags and abs and ebd were standard but in those times in volkswagen vento and polo only the top trims got these safety features. And Honda city is the first car in the segment to standadise these safety features and the 2008 Honda city got 4 stars in Asian ncap and new 5 gen city got 5 star, Jazz with 6 airbags got 5 star in euro ncap and just look how safe the Honda cars are as comparing maruti, kia cars, the new kia seltos which is above 20 laks for the top model has only got 3 stars. Why everyone want these Kia cars . In Europe and other countries these KIA cars were thought as cheap ugly cars
Kia has highly improved their built quality and is currently having 4 stars... Honda is planning for a comeback with sub compact SUV dedicating half of its production capacity for the same in India
In 2006 , my colleague was planning to buy a sedan and he test drove SX4 , Ford fiesta and a Honda City. After honda city he did not test drive any other models.

Hope Honda India sees ur video and gets the goosebumps what every enthusiast feels about Honda, and really hope they give us more of the international market
Love Honda city…superb sedan
I tested it smooth driving ..all features even medium level super .. Iwas 20 yrs onMaruthi alto ..

Aarenkilum udane Honda officialsinu ithonnu ayachu kodkanam.
Kindly inform them what happened Ford 😂
Last year we bought new amaze .it was great buy with petrol CVT full option.Other than power everything was great deal .so clever in engineering even in city rising.but something was newly launched i don't hesitate to buy it without even thinking much that's a trust 😇🤘🏻.
Back in 2015 I bought a brand new Tata BOLT XT petrol (full option) when, as you said, only risk-taking customers with some knowledge of cars would prefer a Tata, knowing the value of bridge products like Zest and Bolt. What attracted me was it's sturdy drive, comfort, space and the beautiful and attractive interiors with a load of features for just 7 lakhs. 2 months after purchase, I went for a marriage where a brand new Honda City was given as the dowry car to the couples. When I took a walk around the city, I felt the interiors too dull as the AC vents were too basic (chintu-mintu in Faisal Khan's language 😬) and for me atleast, it was less attractive, as my BOLT has good looking AC vents finished in a glossy black panel with chrome linings around it, which is beautifully blended with the 4.5 inch touchscreen with physical buttons and usable steering controls as well. That time, a City cost around 12 lakhs, which was quite surprising to me as well. And I disliked that model immediately because I was too much in love with my cousin's arrowshot City, and the replacement facelift didn't appeal to me as well.
Later I drove my cousin-in-law's Amaze Diesel 2015 where I found the steering controls were not at all usable and the back seat space was terrible. As you said, I too eventually got Honda's image as a budget manufacturer who put cheap quality interiors in their cars. So sad to see their plight.
kittatha munthiri pulikum
dont spit shit here like typical TATA Owners
Why, Tata owners can't express their thoughts or what?
Who's the one posting shitty comments here.
@@sachinsadanandan they can express but dont like above. He experienced all by looking a car parked near to him. With out driving it or without entering it.
For tata owners they only need interior colours and dark edition. Dont need better a engine.
You can only compare on cosmatics on budget cars from honda but cant compare with engine and tech and quality of honda.
Its not the place for crying tata owners. By comparing a hatch with sedan.
@@nikhilnikz6348 എന്താടാ.. ഫീലായോ 😁🤣🤣🤣
A) You are the person crying here.
B) Please read the original author's comment again, he is a big fan of the arrowshot city. And also, he has driven the Amaze. So he has the right to comment on his experience.
C) As per your logic, he shouldn't compare a hatch with a sedan because Bolt (hatchback) has more space at the back row than Amaze (sedan)?
Anyway am out of this useless debate, this is Talking Cars community and I hope you will respect other's opinion and take it in the right spirit instead of stamping anyone as a particular brand loyalist.
Peace out ✌️
God! Usually the longer the video the lesser you feel like watching it, I have never been so delighted to see such a large video.
