Honda Elevate V CVT

Honda Elevate V CVT is the automatic mid variant of Honda’s compact SUV and suits buyers who want a smooth 1.5-litre petrol-CVT combination, a spacious cabin, and a practical feature set without moving to the top trims. It is a 5-seater with a 40-litre fuel tank, 1498 cc petrol engine, 119 bhp and 145 Nm output, and an ARAI-rated mileage of 16.92 kmpl, while recent 2026 updates to the Elevate line have added more equipment across the range.

The Elevate V CVT is the sweet spot for buyers who want the automatic version of Honda’s 1.5-litre petrol SUV without stretching to the top trims, but it still feels more sensible than luxurious because it misses some higher-end convenience and safety upgrades. It suits buyers prioritising a smooth CVT, easy city use, and a well-rounded feature set over full-on premium equipment.

Honda updated the Elevate range in India on 6 October 2026, and the V CVT now stands out as the entry automatic variant with the 1.5-litre petrol engine, 16.61 km/l claimed efficiency, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, Honda Connect, a multi-angle rear camera and paddle shifters; it is priced at Rs 13.79 lakh ex-showroom.

Honda Elevate V CVT currently sits at ₹13.79 lakh ex-showroom in India, with recent coverage also showing the facelift update and the same V CVT price point after launch. It is the automatic petrol mid-variant in the Elevate lineup, so it suits buyers who want the CVT convenience without stretching to the higher VX or ZX trims.

Honda Elevate V CVT’s claimed mileage in India is 16.61 kmpl after the 2026 update, while earlier listings showed 16.92 kmpl, so buyers should check the latest official brochure or dealer sheet before booking. Real-world efficiency is likely to vary notably with traffic and driving style, and published tested figures have been lower than the claim.
