With the festive season around the corner, several carmakers are set to lure prospective buyers with new updates and offers, and Honda is no exception. The company has enhanced the market appeal of the Elevate mid-size SUV for the festive season with new interior colour options, stylish exterior elements, and added features. The Honda Elevate goes up against the likes of the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Volkswagen Taigun, MG Astor, and Tata Nexon in the compact SUV segment. It is available in four core trims (SV, V, VX, and ZX) and a single engine (a 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol with 120bhp and 145Nm). For transmission, the SUV offers either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed CVT. If you are looking to bring home the Honda SUV this festive season, here's what the updated Honda Elevate has to offer.
Honda has introduced a brand-new Ivory interior theme for the top-spec ZX variant of the SUV. The fresh option features Ivory leatherette seats, complemented by matching ivory soft-touch inserts on the door linings and the instrument panel. Alongside this, the ZX variant also gets an optional Alpha-Bold Plus grille. That’s not all – Honda has also enhanced the tech options, with optional extras like a 360-degree surround-view camera and rhythmic 7-colour ambient lighting. With the Ivory upholstery now available, the Elevate ZX offers three interior themes: Brown, Ivory, and Black (available in the Black Edition). Prices for the new ZX Ivory grade start at Rs 15.51 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
