The Elevate misses out on quite a few things offered by its rivals.
The Honda Elevate is the only SUV from the Japanese carmaker’s stable in India. It is positioned in the highly competitive midsize SUV segment, where it rivals the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Skoda Kushaq, and others. It scores well on ride and handling and reliability, but lacks the wow appeal that many other rivals offer. We answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the Honda Elevate.
1. What is the Honda Elevate price?
The Honda Elevate SUV has been competitively priced in the Indian market, with ex-showroom (India) prices starting at Rs 12.01 lakh for the base SV variant and going up to Rs 16.83 lakh for the top-spec ZX CVT Black. On-road prices of the Elevate begin at around Rs 13.75 lakh, depending on the city, and go up to Rs 19 lakh.
2. What engine options does the Honda Elevate get?
A 121hp 1.5-litre petrol engine is the sole engine option on the Elevate, and it comes mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 7-step CVT. While the petrol engine is refined, not offering a diesel, CNG, electric or hybrid option – despite having a hybrid powertrain in its stable – is one of its biggest shortcomings. Rivals like the Hyundai Creta and Tata Curvv offer turbo-petrol, diesel and electric options.

3. What are the Honda Elevate variants?
The Honda Elevate is available in SV, V, VX and ZX trims; the Black Edition is available only on the ZX. The 6-speed manual is standard across all variants, and the SV is the only trim that doesn’t get the CVT.
4. What colour options does the Honda Elevate get?
The Honda Elevate’s colour options depend on the variant: the SV only gets Lunar Silver Metallic and Platinum White Pearl; V adds Obsidian Blue Pearl, Radiant Red Metallic, Golden Brown Metallic and Meteoroid Grey Metallic; VX and ZX additionally get Phoenix Orange Pearl; ZX Black gets only Crystal Black Pearl with blacked-out elements. Platinum White Pearl, Phoenix Orange Pearl and Radiant Red Metallic are the only ones available with a dual-tone (black roof) option.
5. What features does the Honda Elevate get?
The Honda Elevate gets LED projector headlamps, daytime running lamps and tail-lamps right from the base SV variant. While the V and VX get an 8-inch infotainment touchscreen, the ZX is the only variant to get the 10.25-inch touchscreen. Other feature highlights include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a wireless charger, a lane-watch camera and a 4-speaker, 4-tweeter audio setup.
6 airbags, ABS with EBD, brake assist, hill-start assist, seat belt indicator and reminder for all seats, stability and traction control, and ISOFIX child seat mounts are standard across all variants. ADAS features are available only on the ZX variant.
6. What is the Honda Elevate’s mileage?
While Honda claims 16.92kpl for the CVT and 15.31kpl for the MT, in our real-world efficiency test, it averaged 10.8kpl and 11kpl, respectively. The reason for the Elevate’s low fuel efficiency is its sharp throttle response, which takes a toll on fuel…
