No matter what awards it bagged everywhere else.
second is, premium they asks for maintenance is not like of a city hatchback but of a sedan.
these are the prominent reasons which kept buyers at bay and all know Honda is hard shell to break, they have not compromised yet but let us hope with Brio they will soften .

Other than the scheduled visits, I have had to make two trips to the workshop so far. Once for back seat noise that started after getting the car back from their body shop; this was rectified immediately. The other was for a wheel noise that turned out to be due to the wheel mount brushing against some metal part, which again was fixed immediately.

Its pretty reasonable if you ask me. The santro maintenance is costlier. Skoda's and VW's are the only one's which cost very high !!
