With every new day more and more Japanese cars can be seen on Pakistani roads, a couple of years back most of the cars imported from Japan were from Daihatsu but now people have started to import Suzuki, Honda and Toyota manufactured vehicles as well. Most of the vehicles of these brands imported from Japan are usually not manufactured locally by these companies and Honda Zest spark is among those cars.
Design dynamics of Honda Zest Spark:
Like the Wagon R of Suzuki that is now among the top-selling vehicles in Pakistan, Honda zest is also a compact 5 door hatchback. People of Pakistan usually prefer Japanese cars because of their features, comfort, and fuel economy that is why exterior designs of vehicles are usually not taken into count, but still, the Honda Zest spark is a decent vehicle with a compact body shape, small front, and small tires. If you watch this vehicle from the rear side you may not be able to differentiate between Honda Zest Spark and Honda life that is another vehicle by Honda Company having similar design dynamics and can also be seen on Pakistani roads.
There are also other competitors of this vehicle like Daihatsu Move, Suzuki Wagon R, and Mitsubishi mirage those have design similarities with zest spark as well competing features but maybe the zest is most expensive among all the competitors.
Engine and Power:
As I have mentioned earlier fuel economy is an important factor of imported cars and zest also gives great fuel economy because of its small 0.7 liters (700cc)- 3 cylinder engine, this small engine generates 64 horsepower that is enough for traveling comfortably within the city but if you are living in hilly areas than it may not be the best choice for you. The top speed of the vehicle is 140 Km/h and the engine of the zest car produces 93nm@4000Rpm of torque.
Comfort and Safety:
There are no doubt cars imported from Japan usually have a spacious and comfortable sitting environment and with better ride quality those become much better from locally manufactured vehicles, same is with zest it gives you a comfortable and smooth ride. Safety of vehicle depends on the number of features installed in vehicle and for your safety zest have Anti-lock braking system, 2 airbags, parking sensors plus parking assist back camera and speed sensing door locks. Many safety features are still missing in this vehicle like lane keep assist, forward collision warning, and airbags for rear-seat passengers but compared to the price of the vehicle it is still a nice choice with present features.
Conclusion:
Honda Zest spark is a nice choice but its price is much higher than its all competitors, 19 lac price of the vehicle is not confirmed as it is not present on Honda’s official website and if any of you know the exact price of this vehicle then kindly do mention in comment or reviews section, otherwise, price mention on most of the websites is same as given here. Some issue related to zest that is important to mention here include Expensive Spare parts, Low ground Clearance (as all we know the conditions of roads in Pakistan), and Lack of Competitive Mechanics.
