Honda claims a very high 26kmpl that is higher than any of its natural rivals. The diesel engine comes with a six speed manual as against a five speed in the petrol.
The petrol engine itself is the same 1.5-litre iVtec from the old car and has 119PS as against the old car's 118. However torque has fallen to 145Nm vs the 146Nm from the old car. Interestingly torque now peaks 200rpm lower at 4600rpm which means the new petrol might be slightly more drivable as compared with the old car.
Honda also offers the choice of a CVT automatic gearbox with the petrol. Honda claims 17.8kmpl for the manual and 18kmpl for the automatic. This makes the automatic not just more efficient than the manual but the most efficient petrol auto on sale in India today.
