Honda Amaze vs Maruti Dzire vs Hyundai Aura: Dimensions

The table tells us that the Honda Amaze offers the most interior space, along with 420 liters of boot space, despite being the same length as the others. The reason for this is Honda's core philosophy when making mass-market cars: "Man Maximum, Machine Minimum."
