The Honda Elevate has achieved yet another milestone on our shores. Honda Cars India has announced that the compact SUV has sold 20,000 units within a span of 100 days after its price announcement. Over the past few months, Honda conducted mega delivery events where it handed over 100 units of the customers across different cities. 

The Elevate is a compact SUV that was a ‘make or break’ model for Honda Cars India. But response for the Elevate has been positive ever since its debut. In fact, the Elevate accounted for over 50 percent of the carmaker’s total sales during the last three months. It also added that the new launch has helped improve its sales by 11 percent in the same timeframe. 

Coming to the Elevate itself, the new compact SUV has a design that should age like fine wine. It has an upmarket interior and while the features list has everything you need for your day-to-day usage, a bit more niceties such as panoramic sunroof, a branded sound system and ventilated front seats would have rounded off the package. 

Powering the Elevate is the tried-and-tested 121 PS 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, driving the front wheels via a 6-speed manual or a CVT. To know our drive impressions, you can check out our in-depth first drive review.
