What's happening to Honda Cars India Ltd ? | Talking Cars - Analysis | Malayalam

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.

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 KZbin 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.

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.

[@manuraj3405]

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 ......

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 ..

[@ashlinbabu5278]

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...

[@MG-fi9ir]

Don't say about Activa comfort, that means you haven't tried Wego or other scooter! Blind faith!

[@ashlinbabu5278]

@@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

[@niriap9780]

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.

[@paulvonline]

Comfort driving in activa? Is this a troll?

[@ashlinbabu5278]

@@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....

​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.

[@arjunpillai1455]

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.👍😀

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.

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.

@@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..

[@mukunthansrithar7699]

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🤞

[@kill3rbyysight]

Honda city 5th gen is a gem! wat u talking

[@mukunthansrithar7699]

@@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.

[@kill3rbyysight]

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..

[@mukunthansrithar7699]

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.

[@kill3rbyysight]

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

[@disisshahid]

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)

[@cutebabies05]

🎉💥

[@hannaandian1276]

May be it's your own opinion (Gentleman's car).compare to Toyota Honda's spares more expensive also less fuel economy

[@disisshahid]

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.

[@hannaandian1276]

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

[@ThejusChandranMa]

​@@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

[@unknownanimist2200]

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
