The Japanese car and motorcycle manufacturer, Honda has recently christened its compact SUV as the \u201cElevate,\u201d now shared a teaser revealing that its new SUV will break cover on June 6. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honda Elevate Unveiling In India<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a recent development, Honda has confirmed the unveiling date of its upcoming mid-size SUV, the Elevate<\/a>, in India, on 6 June, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only that the offline bookings for the same are already being accepted at multiple Honda dealerships across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Japanese headquartered firm revealed the name of the SUV at the start of this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The test mule of the Elevate SUV was spotted doing rounds on the Indian roads, around the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honda Elevate Features And Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This latest launch from Honda is expected to get features like a 360-degree camera, a large touchscreen infotainment system, automatic climate control, cruise control, and a sunroof. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exterior of Elevate SUV is expected to get LED headlamps and tail lights, LED DRLs, a shark-fin antenna, a rear wiper with a washer, and roof rails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 It seems that the carmaker will reveal more details on the debut date of the Elevate SUV next month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The latest teaser image of the Honda Elevate SUV gives us a top-down view showing it to be finished in a white color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notably, its most significant detail of all is that it won\u2019t be getting a panoramic sunroof but a single-pane unit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shared teaser also highlights a brief look at the LED DRLs up front and the LED taillights and the roof rail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But considering how competitors like the Hyundai Creta and Maruti Grand Vitara do offer a panoramic sunroof, the Elevate may be on the back foot without it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not to forget that even the upcoming facelifted Kia Seltos will offer  a panoramic sunroof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides the sunroof, the Elevate will also likely to offer c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

a bigger touchscreen unit than the City\u2019s 8-inch display, ventilated front seats, cruise control, digital driver\u2019s display, and wireless phone charging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming to safety, Honda is expected to equip it with up to six airbags, traction control, a 360-degree camera and electronic stability control (ESC). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to this new launch from Honda will also come with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), likely consisting of lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control and forward-collision warning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under The Hood Specifications<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Elevate SUV is most likely to borrow the petrol engine from its sedan sibling, the Honda City, under the hood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides this, the hybrid powertrain option and the ADAS suite can also be carried over from the City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be equipped with the City\u2019s 1.5-litre petrol engine (121PS and 145Nm) with 6-speed manual and CVT options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carmaker is also expected to offer it with the City Hybrid\u2019s 126PS strong-hybrid powertrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears that the Elevate too will miss out on a diesel engine altogether, like some newer compact SUVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Honda Elevate Pricing and Competition<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


This new launch from Honda is most likely to compete with the likes of the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, and others in the SUV segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be competing in a crowded segment that boasts of the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, MG Astor, Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun and the upcoming Citroen C3 Aircross. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elevate is expected to go on sale by August 2023 at a starting price of Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
