Honda Cars India has expanded its offerings to the Indian armed forces personnel by making the Elevate SUV available across all military canteen stores in the country. This move adds to the already available Amaze and City sedans, further aligning Honda's commitment to serving armed personnel with high-quality and premium vehicles.
Elevate SUV: A Commendable Addition
The inclusion of the Honda Elevate in the Canteen Store Departments (CSD) is a commendable move by Honda. It showcases the brand's dedication to providing armed personnel with access to top-quality vehicles. The Elevate SUV, being Honda’s most expensive non-hybrid vehicle in India, offers a package that combines the strengths of the City sedan with a commanding road presence, making it an ideal choice for Indian road conditions.
Key Features of Honda Elevate
The Honda Elevate stands out in the highly competitive compact SUV segment as a no-frills and no-nonsense offering. It is one of the most competitively priced ADAS-equipped vehicles in the Indian market, thanks to the Honda Sensing active safety suite. The Elevate is powered by a 1.5L 4-cylinder NA petrol engine, shared with the City sedan, delivering 119 bhp of peak power and 144 Nm of peak torque. It is available with either a 6-speed manual gearbox or a CVT.
The SUV boasts contemporary design, strong character, and road presence, along with sorted dynamics and ride quality. It features a high ground clearance of 220 mm and competitive pricing. While it may not match its immediate rivals in terms of feature count, the Elevate offers functional features without any deal-breakers, such as LED lighting, stylish 17-inch alloy wheels, a single-pane sunroof, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, cruise control, rear AC vents, and premium leatherette upholstery.
