I completely agree with what Faisal bhai said, I’ve owned 2nd gen vtec plus city and 3rd gen city and now a 2020 jazz. They make such brilliant cars what I don’t know why they are not able to make good decisions For our market. There’s no other budget car company which gives such a brilliant steering Feel and that vtec enjoy joy. I’m really hoping they don’t mess up the upcoming elevate suv in terms of pricing or inadequate feature list. Honda makes really good cars it’s just they don’t know how to sell them. I hope they won’t end in the situation where Ford Chevrolet Mitsubishi ended.

I think main problem is the profitability. Indian market is quite different and price sensitive so making cars specific to it seeks extra investment. Moreover weird taxation rules makes it near impossible to sold international models in india at reasonable price. So how did Hyundai and kia able to cracked it? well they do cost cuttings in platform itself to keep price in check.

The only thing Kia lacks is ncap rating, other than that Kia has destroyed Honda in every aspect. Seltos/creta is as refined as any other Japanese car in Indian market and offers more features than other Japanese car. Honda and Kia both make their cars in india. The problem is Honda doesn't know how to price their vehicles be it 2 wheeler or cars. Honda premium 2 wheeler segment is also dying with its cars because Honda thinks they are kings of the industry and they think customers will come begging for them. Price hike of Honda amaze diesel (their cheapest and practical offering) was the biggest blunder Honda has done. Also what's stopping Honda from putting amaze engine in an suv and selling in india?

very well explained . Sad to see a brand with such a history and global recognition is failing in Indian market. Hope this video reaches Honda representatives and somehow they find a way to get out of this situation so that we will not end up loosing another brand just like FORD .

We need a case study on VW group also please. and also future of VW. it was an amazing case study.

Good video and well explained. It's the very similar situation here in South Africa with Honda. Sales have fallen flat, and there's not much excitement for the brand. With the rapid rise of Chinese brands in our market too, they're pushed further down the bottom. It wouldn't surprise me if they shut down operations in South Africa....

Love this Case study type videos, no need to read any long articles and can understand everything 😊

Case studies ... Looking forward to many more... Great work.. efforts much appreciated 👍👍

This series shouldn't stop,please continue making for all the other brands as well 🙏

Glad that you are making these kinds of case studies apart from your left foot on the brake and right foot on the accelerator content (anyway we love that too)..... great going Faisal ❤🔥

I still remember the times when Honda was the 3rd most selling car brand in India. first and second being Maruti and Hyundai ofc.

Great video. Was really fun and intriguing to watch. This is a general problem with many Japanese companies. They don't know how to handle market changes. Look at Nissan and Mitsuibishi. I have worked with Toshiba and they have a similar mindset too. Not ready to experiment and take risks.

Dude loved this case study...Please make more of these...Im even willing to pay for such honest in depth and good videos.

I have a 2016 BR-V (diesel). I am about to reach 1,50,000 km any day now. Personally I feel it is the most practical car I have driven. It has a massive boot, 210mm ground clearance and it has given me the maximum milage of 23kmpl (average is about 18kmpl) And its very comfortable.

Very nice video bro, I have 2009 Honda City, I love my car it runs fast and is very comfortable too. But recently my right side door started to rust and have 3 golf ball size holes. My mechanic told me to replace the door it will be better than fixing it. So when you mention the rusting part I did relate to it. My new favourite car is Virtus GT. It looks good both on paper and your reviews. I hope the upcoming GT plus will be a great one too.

About the City hatchback, I think it could have worked if they decided to market it as an Estate/Wagon variant of the City (kinda like how Octavia has an Octavia Combi variant in EU). It may not be a "true" wagon but if cars like Creta and Brezza are sold as SUVs and can generate big sales why not this right? I think it could also spawn a new segment for C-hatchbacks for our markets which could potentially get the global spec cars like the VW Golf, Renault Megane and maybe even the Civic and Corolla hatchbacks.

Love the video the narration and the research! Will see all such vids.

Loved the case study, Faisal. On a lighter note, when failure at Indian market gets discussed at Honda leadership, they would play your video.

All the late 90s and 2000s flashed in front of my eyes while watching this video. Thanks Faisal, would appreciate similar car company journey videos on other brands too.

For someone who has always owned a Honda I wonder why they discontinued the BRV which could have with right marketing it could have competed into the SUV market

amazing execution, I am loving ur case studies. Wish to see case studies in bigger ratio w.r.t car reviews. No other channel gives this type of masala.

Honda is still very good. taking v and vx variants of city for example, no other company offers such features at that price point. I really feel elevate will be a game changer. it is much more muscular than Creta, grand vitara and offers ADAS

"Indian consumers are intelligent" is the biggest JOKE I heard till date😅😂 They love Tin ka dibba over their safety ....

Perfect details !!! I had a email exchange with Honda India regarding WRV not offering Adjustable Head rest at the rear which is very important for a taller passenger Head support without that will be a safety issue . But Honda being Honda replied saying "You would acknowledge that every model/ variant along with its features are certified and approved by relevant Government authorities and the company decides value proportion of each variant based on market study and regulations as applicable "

Loved the entertaining video full of humor and sarcastics. Very nicely presented.

Amazing video. Loved the way you explained. Following you since 2018

I completely agree with you Faisal. After owning exclusively Honda 2 & 4 wheelers. Their current situation is definitely scary. I do hope for the sake of survival in the in the extremely competitive Indian Car market & Honda Fans that they do step out of their shell and give us some more scintillating cars in India.

Very well done Faisal I'm sad to see Honda cars in India in this state hope it turns around, even if you are not a Honda fan you must hope Honda does well because there will be competition and other brands don't take their customers for a ride because of lack of competitors

Great work Faisal❤!! Thorough research n fantastic editing. Indeed want to see more such content🙌🏻🙌🏻

Wow Faisal... So pleasing to hear you. You sound so logical with bits of comic punches!!!

I’m bloody addicted with your videos bro!😅 so informative

Perfect analysis.. most adamant marketing approach !! Honda wants to make car n customer buy as it is .. doesn’t even want to compete or keep up with the rivals !! No hatchbacks .. SUVs are not launched .. just one sedan .. too lil too late .. why Indian market is not considered a potential place for sales. Totally agree with this .. Honda is slowly moving out of space which it created when there were no rivals .. hope it doesn’t move out like ford from India

Loved the video, Kudos to your efforts✨ Would definitely love to see more on this series for other brands.

This series of awesome and very informative as you're, please keep doing such videos

So much heart can be felt from a honda vtec fan boy, we had opd city nd 2016 brv, they sre still running with no issues but all those points Faisal made here is absolutely true, we want more from HONDA

This video deserve a huge applause!👏🏻 Thanks for bringing such great videos Faisal!🔥

What a comprehensive video on this case study. Being a honda fan myself, I feel you have aptly captured everything! Keep making such insightful videos !

This video about honda cars is truly contentfully rich and has more details of their ups and downs. I really enjoyed by seeing content and i know that you had taken a herculean task for making this case study faisal bhai i just became amazed . Kudos faisal bhai by making such an informative content.up next you have make a case study about honda motorcycles india limited it's my request please.

In 5th Gen Honda CITY they were the first to offer ESP,VSA,4 airbags,tpms, Connected car tech(5 yr subscription),hill hold,brake assist,AUTO AC, touchscreen etc all good to have and must have features from base variant itself and at that time no manufacturer was offering these safety features from base variant Now in 2023 some are offering this in safety features from base variant Also They r offering Honda sensing ADAS etc features from 2nd base variant of 5th Gen City..Again they r the first to offer it..Their products are expensive than the competition because they dont have 10-20 variants to offer..they just have 3-4 variants max..and all gets all features standard..So If they want to be cost competitive then they should launch 10-20 variants of their upcoming car where base variant will feel like empty box with no touchscreen,auto ac,no alloys nothing... Just like Hyundai do with their cars like Creta,Venue,Verna etc which gets nothing in base variants Also Koreans are cutting cost on safety which adds most of the cost of manufacturing where Honda isn't so offering Safety, Features,Value for money isn't possible plus heavy taxes are the special add on in which City hybrid being most fuel efficient have to pay 43% of taxes same as normal petrol cars

Great video, u really brought out the right points. Iv been a honda city dtec owner and i really like the car in terms of comfort and mileage (gives 20+ and one time on the highway managed to get 33 freakin km/lt) thinking of an upgrade. Considering cars with DCT or TC.

Good video Faisal 🤟. Great initiative to create awareness to Honda about their products.

Well put together vdo. Hope you do a vdo on VW too which in my opinion is also going the la Honda way. I mean I don’t have to remind anyone VW , a brand which never boasted about nifty features it never mentioned in their brochure is gone too greedy to strip many basic essential features which was given in their earlier models example VIRTUS GT ! Sells like premium in price but offers quality in southerly direction. So expecting you to make an in-depth vdo on VW too.

I've learned alot 💯, please keep making these type of videos, your English speaking skill is just excellent. ❤

Very nicely documented the story "The Fall of Honda" but let us observe, Honda is now changing its strategy world wide by bringing SUVs like WRV,HRV , CRV, Pilot with great interior design ang better driving dynamics and also updating flagship models like Civic and Accord, Wish this change in strategy is witnessed now in India also with the launch of Elevate next month

Great job, such an awakening and informative video, true journalism. Someone needed to talk about this!!! We can't let go a significant brand slowly like this otherwise, we'll be only left with soulless and rebadged japanese brands which just rush behind sales. Its good that sales isn't the only / main aim of Honda unlike other brands but, they should be global, unbiased and customer sensetive if they want to bring out the real them, like they are in the USA. A brand is always established to create customers.

I agree to everything that you mentioned! Being a Honda fan myself, it's heart breaking that Honda has been disappointing persistently.. Why would not Honda give us the global models!? Atleast why can't they reduce the price of Indian models like Wrv for the low powered engine with no mileage .. I had planned to buy a wrv in 2018 and I was stunned to know that the full option diesel had keyless entry, cruise control and push start stop button but not in the full option petrol! What logic is that?! And again in the latest civic a CVT in petrol and manual in diesel!? Who takes decisions in Honda?! And moreover who approves of it?!

How is the scene after launching the Elevate ?

Still Honda City and civic was the crush of every child in childhood ....🔥🤩

I still have my 2007 Civic, you wont beleive not an single issue ever till date 15 years with any engine or anything at all apart from standard annual service. Honda cars rocks 🎉

I really love the case study and my favourite car from Honda was 8th gen Civic

Things HONDA should do: 1- Bring Honda city rs 1.0 L with manual option to India. 2- Make the current 1.5 L city turbocharged so it can smoke all it’s rivals. 3- Ditch the sluggish CVT gearbox and instead try DCT or other options 4- Make the cars more sporty especially city by putting bigger wheels and tyres. 5- Good infotainment system 6- Bring a good ,capable , solid, powerful SUV . 7- Think twice before putting the price tag. 8- Make the cars more solid and improve the overall quality of the cars. 9- Read this comment.

Much required video. Hope Honda watches and reads these comments. been driving Honda for quite a while and indian customers genuinely feel like an afterthought. bought the 5th Gen City after also owning the 3rd gen for a decade now. but this probably will be the end of my journey with Honda unless they launch some seriously interesting models.

Fantastic video. I love your style of video. Please be continue of others company's.

*True Honda should improve their attitude, marketing, new models with good quality material good built quality, turbo petrol engines , good quality suspension like VW , good quality touchscreen, good quality 360 camera like Hyundai alcazar , premium features in low price like Maruti and Hyundai kia*

The video was so logical and entertaining at the same time. Make these videos a bit more longer like 40 mins if possible. Loved it ❤

Honda launched the VTEC engine with the 2nd gen City facelift but wasn't standard across all the models. It was sold along with iDSI engine as well.

This new series about car brands is way good, we get to know about companies deeply!!!!!!!

Amaze was literally the best at that time according to it's price. Proud to be a Amaze owner

I'm ready to give a premium just for that Honda motor under hood coz, without that its useless ! U want reliability & performance at the same time ie technically impossible, Honda makes that possible ! I ll be happy as long as Honda sells their engines. I can get a chassis for that Engine from the rest brands ! Actually what do we gain by putting a GDI + turbo ? some few seconds from life right !

by far the best car analysis ever on youtube. Keep up the good work. Pls make a video on maruti fronx

Brilliant video, another point , how difficult was it for Honda to plonk the 1.5 vtec with auto GB in the WRV from the City or even the diesel + CVT from Amaze to WRV , it would have done wonder but Honda is Honda in making the most baffling decisions .

I am laughing, crying and pulling my hair at the same time in frustration looking at the series of decisions made by Honda, not just in India, but globally as well.

I can vouch for the rusting part, When I was in school one of the girls in our class owned a city, Her father used to driver her to school everyday so we saw that car daily for 4-5 yrs, and man that car turned into a rusted box pretty soon. Somewhat the weather of our hometown was to blame with rains almost 10 months in an year.

Don't know why Honda not even considering turbo engines for indian market..If cost was the reason then vw wouldn't launched their tsi engines in india.. We can't forget that Honda launched City with Proper 1.5 VTEC, Accord V6 etc which was a rocket then realised that indians want mileage resulting VTEC to i-VTEC.. They should consider 1.0 and 1.5 VTEC turbos for India but I think they aren't considering because of mainly four reasons: 1. Very less sales volume,less profit 2. They r treating indian market as 3rd grade which they actually doing by not launching good cars like HRV, Civic,Crv,Brv etc 3. Reliability issues because of india's poor fuel quality and they don't want to spoil their name in Reliability 4. They want to focus on Hybrids instead of turbos as turbo engines delivers less fuel efficiency and hybrids delivers the most and indians want fuel efficiency that's why... I think honda makes one of the best engines worldwide and known for their reliability also...Last year's F1 race says it all.. Also They should launch more products to India like CBU,CKD Civic,HRV,Crv etc Their Upcoming ELEVATE SUV will be do or die situation for them so they should launch it at aggressive price not honda premium and should improve mistakes they have done in the past
