The front fascia of the Elevate facelift has gone through some serious rework. The grille gets a new honeycomb pattern and a gloss finish. The eyebrow LED DRLs on the headlamps are connected by lighting segments placed on the grille. The Honda logo is now positioned on the bonnet. The fog lamp housings on the bumper are body coloured.
The alloy wheel design has been carried forward from the outgoing model. The body cladding has a gloss-black finish. The profile of the facelift model looks identical to its predecessor. At the back, the tailgate features a new LED light bar that connects the tail lamps. Other than that, there are no new changes on the design front. Honda has added a new paint shade for the SUV – Nordic Forest. It is available in monotone and dual-tone options.
Inside, the dashboard of the Honda Elevate facelift looks more plush with leatherette padding. The outgoing model used a faux wood trim. The more notable feature additions include powered and ventilated front seats, rear seat ventilation, LED reading lamps for rear passengers, and a new 36-degree camera.
The CVT variants get an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) with the auto-hold function. Honda padded the safety suite with additions like front parking sensors, rear disc brakes, and adaptive cruise control. The cabin is quieter due to the addition of more sound-deadening materials. Other safety and convenience features have been carried forward from the outgoing model.
No changes have been made under the hood of the facelift model. The Elevate continues to be powered by a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine. It generates a maximum power output of 121hp and 145Nm. Buyers can pair it with a 6-speed manual or CVT. The manual variants offer a mileage of 15.31km/l while the CVT variants have a fuel economy of 16.61km/l.
