By The Elevate is one of the most important models of Honda in India and now the company started offering the Elevate at Canteen Store Departments (CSD) for the Indian Armed Forces. The company has been offering Amaze and City at CSD stores but they are yet to reveal the CSD price of the Elevate. The Elevate is based on the Global Small Car Platform of Honda and the design theme is similar to what we have seen on global Honda SUV products but still the Elevate looks different from its competitors.
The Elevate measures 4312 mm in length, 1790 mm in width and 1650 mm in height, 2650 mm wheelbase and 220 mm of ground clearance which is more than the Hyundai Creta. The front gets LED headlamps along with a new grille which is finished in black and LED fog lamps. The side design is simple and Honda offers 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and an integrated roof rail. The rear gets L-shaped LED tail lamps and black plastic cladding across the body with faux skid plates.
The interior is similar to what we have seen on the Honda City as the dashboard gets a 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a 7-inch digital cluster with an analogue speedometer. Honda has given a camera on the left mirror to reduce blind spots and we have seen it on the City. Apart from this, the Elevate get Honda Sensing which is a Level-II Autonomous system. The Elevate is powered by a 1.5 L petrol engine with 121 PS of power and 145 Nm of torque mated to a 6-speed manual and CVT.
