Pros and Cons of Elevate
- Spacious interior
- Large boot space
- Comfortable ride quality
- Smooth performance
- Misses features vs competition
- No choice of turbocharged or hybrid powertrains

The Honda Elevate delivers thoroughly on the fundamentals of what a family car needs. It doesn’t make headlines for its features list or powertrain options but is nevertheless a practical and comfortable family SUV
Expert's Opinion on Elevate?
- The Honda Elevate has been described by many as a “mini-Land Cruiser” thanks to its imposing front design!
- 220mm of ground clearance helps the Elevate clear speed breakers and unpredictable road conditions
- Fun fact - The design itself takes inspiration from the Honda Vezel but with a much more boxy edgy design to make the Elevate more butch
- Colour options for the Elevate include orange, blue, red, white, brown, silver and gray
- Orange, red and white can also be had with a black dual-tone
- The Brown (black) and the Orange really pop with this SUV
- 17-inch alloy wheels offered with the VX and ZX variants look attention grabbing and complement the design well
- Fun fact: Honda sells the made-in-India Elevate in Japan, where it is called - the Honda WR-V!
- Rear end design is too plain and lacks the unique appeal of the front
- If you like sportier or flashier styling, something like the Kia Seltos will offer more appeal
- Tan brown and black interior looks premium and unique though only offered with the top-end variant
- Beige and black interior offered in the lower variants looks premium and similar to the Honda City
- Perfect ergonomics with all the controls feeling very natural to use
- A new car buyer will feel at ease in the Elevate
- Getting in and out of the car will be convenient for elders in the family thanks to the raised seat height
- The driver gets a full view of the long bonnet which adds to the SUV charm! Makes you feel like you’re driving a bigger car
- While fit and finish won't give you reason to complain, it doesn't feel as premium as rivals like the Seltos or Astor
- The brown and black interior looks the best and should have been offered with lower variants too
- Cabin space is enough for four 6 feet tall occupants to sit comfortably
- Storage spaces in the cabin are well designed, including phone slots within the seat back pockets, a large storage tray for front passenger phones/wallets, cupholders at the front and rear and storage under the front armrest too
- 458 litre boot space is very generous and can store large suitcases easily or multiple trolley bags
- Rear seats split and fold 60:40 to free up more storage space if you need it
- The seats are large in size and deliver good support for those with broad shoulders and offer good under-thigh support too
- Drivers over 6ft tall or those who wear turbans will want better front headroom
- Front seat travel is limited, making it less than ideal for drivers over 6ft in height
- Tall front passengers may find the dashboard hitting their knee
- 10.25 inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay offers good resolution and is easy to navigate through
- Single-pane sunroof
- 7-inch multi-information display
- 8-speaker music system that delivers good sound quality
- The base SV variant offers good value for money. It just needs a little personalisation with add-ons like wheel covers and your preferred infotainment system with speakers
- Misses features like ventilated seats, powered driver’s seat, type-C USB chargers or a panoramic sunroof
- Icon sizes on the touchscreen could have been larger
- While the sound system is good, rivals like the Tata Curvv, Kia Seltos or Hyundai Creta have better setups
- 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX and rear parking sensors camera
- The Elevate also gets rear view camera and the left indicator-linked Lane Watch camera
- Other features: auto-dimming IRVM, traction control and hill-start assist
- The Elevate also offers advanced driver assistance systems including adaptive cruise control and auto-braking
- The Elevate has not been tested yet but the Honda Vezel/HR-V which the Elevate is based off, received a 5 star rating from JNCAP in 2022.
- ADAS can feel jerky or over-reactive in Indian driving conditions, especially in the city
- Lane watch camera resolution is not very usable at night especially in the rains
- The Elevate gets the same 1.5 litre petrol engine as the Honda City
- Producing 121PS of power and 145Nm of torque, this engine has a well-established reputation for reliability
- It’s a smooth engine to drive and will manage city commutes easily
- A 6-speed manual transmission comes as standard with an optional CVT automatic
- Claimed mileage standard at 16.92kmpl (CVT) and 15.31kmpl (manual)
- Braking performance is strong and the car feels steady even under panic braking conditions at high speeds
- No diesel, hybrid or CNG option available
- The iVtec petrol engine needs to be pushed during high speed overtakes or while driving up inclines
- While the CVT is our pick for its smoothness, it won’t offer the urgency-on-demand the way a dual-clutch automatic transmission can
- The Elevate offers good handling and is very easy to drive in traffic thanks to its light controls
- The manners stay predictable even at high speeds and the experience is very confidence inspiring
- While the Elevate’s handling manners are very good, especially for an SUV, the performance is best suited for city driving and relaxed highway touring
- Ride quality is a big reason to consider the Elevate as it’s both comfortable and balanced
- Bump absorption is good, passengers are kept insulated well from bad roads
- It controls side-to-side tossing that’s a common drawback in other SUVs
- Some body roll can be felt in the corners which will be more apparent to rear seat passengers
- Noise insulation needs to be better as there’s a notable amount of road noise audible especially at the rear
- The Elevate is a smooth to drive, dependable, spacious, practical and comfortable family car
- It's not the most feature-rich offering in the segment but delivers very good value for money
- If you need punchy performance/strong performance with a full load, consider diesel/turbo-petrol/hybrid alternatives such as the Grand Vitara, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos or Skoda Kushaq
