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.

Reliable predictable and consistent performance

I drove this car to Badrinath , Really enjoy the driving it's movability and engine is really very smooth Very good car If you drive between 60 to 70 km/h We get average 20++ AC is very effective

Good mileage

I want to start from front. The headlights are not that strong (average) .Car Performance is quite punche as it produces 83bhp and 114Nm torque(petrol), wheels on this car are small 165/80 R14 ,I think it could be 175 sections tyre for better stability on covering. This car misses abs and ebd so the break are not that good. Fuel efficiency is good in city it gives 17 km/l mileage and 19 km/l in highway as per the instrument cluster shown in the car.The overall look of the is superb back side of the car looks amazing, interior is also good. It will be a plus point for maruti if they imporve the build quality of the car. Maintenance cost is also low Overall it is a wonderful car.
