Here’s What The Honda Elevate’s One-above-base V Variant Features

• Honda offers four trims on the Elevate: SV, V, VX, and ZX.

• Pre-launch bookings are underway.

• This is the entry-level trim for the automatic transmissions. 

• It misses out on the 10.25-inch infotainment system and the Phoenix Orange Pearl hue, and gets a smaller touchscreen.

• Launch is slated for September 4.

The launch of the Honda Elevate, which is due on September 4, is right around the corner. Production and pre-launch bookings are already underway, and you can even check out the compact SUV for yourself at Honda dealerships. There are four trims to choose from and to aid your buying decision, here’s a detailed report of its one-above base V variant:

Unlike the base SV trim, which only covers the bare basics, the V trim leans on a slightly more premium experience with equipment like an 8-inch infotainment system with four speakers, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, connected car technology, multi-angled rear view camera and steering-mounted controls. Additionally, you get all the equipment from the base-spec SV, which have been detailed in this article.

The premium features like a sunroof and 17-inch alloys, 10.25-inch touchscreen, 8-speaker system, six airbags, and ADAS are limited to the higher-end trims.

In terms of colour options, you get every option except for the Phoenix Orange Pearl, which has been reserved for the VX and ZX trims. Head here for more details on its variant-wise colour options.

As for the powertrain, the Honda Elevate gets a single 1.5-litre petrol engine, which is shared throughout the variant lineup along with a 6-speed manual. But starting from this V trim, there’s also an optional CVT gearbox available. Check out our reel below to get an impression of how the Honda Elevate is to drive:

Prices for the Honda Elevate are expected to begin from around the Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom) mark. It’ll find itself in the middle of a bustling compact SUV segment with rivals like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, VW Taigun, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and the upcoming Citroen C3 Aircross ready to take a dig at it.
