Honda Elevate Long Term Review, September 2024 Report

Of late, the Elevate has seen a lot of highway action happening. First, I had to go on a couple of errands to my hometown, and later a colleague needed a car with decent boot space to take his family on a short holiday. In both trips, we once again discovered how the Elevate makes for an excellent long-distance hauler. It’s big, comfortable seats are a pleasure to spend time in, especially with the ventilated function coming in handy in our glaringly hot summers. At the same time, Honda’s products feature excellent air-conditioning and noise isolation, which means you’re enclosed in your cosy cocoon, no matter the conditions outside.

Pair with this the peppy petrol engine, and high-speed cruising on our new highways is something the Elevate achieves in a very relaxed manner. And if you’re a sedate driver, doing excellent fuel efficiency numbers is easy, and makes your journey that much more comfortable. What also helps here is that with its manageable size, parking the Elevate is a breeze and something that is not an issue in our congested urban areas, and that is a big plus, if this is your primary vehicle. However, one flaw in most of our new highways are the rather bumpy expansion joints, which keep interrupting you every few hundred metres, and here, the suspension of the Elevate feels a tad too soft, and every time you cross a joint at speed, there is a bit too much bobbing movement. Other than that, though, there’s not much I can complain about in the Elevate.
