Honda Elevate review

Honda nailed it with the pricing! Finally! This car is value for money considering other manufacturers! Buying experience: should be good Looks and performance: looks high class, looks like its global models abroad. Performance for a natural aspirated model is quite good. Mileage is good too. Pros: looks, build quality, engine, price Cons: few features like ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof is missing.

Audi a3

I used this car since years. This car is very comfortable and luxurious. But the service cost is very high. This was the problem only. Otherwise, the car was very good. The car looks sporty and luxurious.

Honda Elevate First Drive Review

By Bilal Ahmed Firfiray01 Aug 2023

We spent time with the Honda Elevate to see if it is a case of 'better late than never' or 'too little, too late'.

2017 Audi A3 35 TDI First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali24 Feb 2017

Premium compact sedans were unheard of when Audi India brought along the A3 in mid-2014. Sharing market space with a few luxury hatchbacks at the time, the A3 ticked most of the right boxes for first-time premium car buyers and came with a good mix of luxury and performance. Fast-forward three years and this segment has expanded somewhat, allowing Audi India to burst on to the scene again with the updated 2017 A3.
