Just in time for the festive season, Honda India has rolled out a stylish update for the Elevate crossover. This time, the brand has focused on interior upgrades, new color themes, and exclusive editions that aim to make the Elevate more appealing to a wider audience. While the mechanicals remain unchanged, the design and feature tweaks are bound to draw attention on showroom floors.
Interiors
The biggest highlight of this update is the new ivory interior theme on the top-end ZX variant. It now comes with leatherette upholstery, soft-touch panels on the doors and dashboard, and an optional grille surround for a bolder look. Buyers looking for more tech flair can also opt for a 360-degree camera and seven-color ambient lighting, taking the cabin experience up a notch.
The ZX Ivory edition is priced at Rs. 15.51 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), making it the most premium Elevate offering so far.
Midrange
The updates aren’t limited to the top trim. Honda has also refreshed the V and VX variants by replacing the older shadow beige theme with new black fabric upholstery featuring ivory inserts. This adds a touch of contrast and premium feel even in the midrange versions.
In addition, the Crystal Black Pearl exterior paint option has now been made available across the V, VX, and ZX trims. It adds a more elegant and sleek appearance, especially when paired with the optional new grille design. The V trim now starts at Rs. 12.39 lakh, while the VX begins at Rs. 14.13 lakh (both ex-showroom, Delhi).
Editions
For those who love the blacked-out look, Honda has also updated the Elevate Black Edition. It continues to be offered in two versions—the standard Black Edition and the Signature Black Edition.
The standard version keeps things classy with chrome and silver detailing, while the Signature variant goes full stealth with all-black styling, the new grille design, and ambient lighting included as standard. Both versions come with all-black interiors, leatherette seats, and soft-touch materials, appealing to buyers who want a sporty and luxurious vibe in one package.
Engine
There are no changes under the hood, and that’s not a bad thing. The Elevate continues with Honda’s trusted 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine. It’s available with a six-speed manual gearbox or a CVT automatic, offering a good mix of performance and efficiency for everyday driving.
Despite being a naturally aspirated engine, it still delivers smooth power delivery and is refined across all driving conditions—something Honda fans expect and appreciate.
Features
Even with all these cosmetic and interior upgrades, Honda hasn’t ignored the essentials. Features like six airbags, ADAS suite, LaneWatch camera, and connected car technology remain standard across most variants, especially in the higher trims.
The addition of optional tech like the 360-degree camera and ambient lighting further helps Honda stay competitive in the tightly packed compact SUV segment.
