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.

Good

Pros Good off-road capabilities Unique design Cons Not comfy for daily driving Limited service network Overall 3/5 Great for those who need a capable off-reader and don’t care about the features.

Just drive and you will know...

Outstanding... I'm speechless. This car offers you a great feel that you are in a smart off-roader with 5 doors, providing the best experience for both the driver and rear passengers. There's so many accessories for aftermarket modifications and it's a well-designed car that you can use for daily rides or short and long trips. I think this car is not overpriced, you have to know this car is 4×4.
