- Honda’s Creta rival could be called Elevate
- Honda Elevate is likely to debut in India in June 2023
Honda continues testing its mid-size SUV in India ahead of its official debut which will reportedly take place in June 2023. New spy shots give us a look at the interiors of the model, leaking a few key details and features.
As seen in the images here, the Honda mid-size SUV features a dual-tone interior theme of beige and black, a large touchscreen infotainment system that dominates the centre console, a multi-function steering wheel, and adjustable headrests for the front row occupants.
On the outside, the test mule of Honda’s Grand Vitara rival reveals tall roof rails, a quarter panel for the rear windows, inverted L-shaped two-piece LED tail lights, a rear wiper and washer, a shark-fin antenna, and an integrated spoiler. An interesting fact is that the ORVMs have a bulge underneath, hinting that the model will get a 360-degree camera at launch.
Although unconfirmed, Honda’s mid-size SUV, which could be called Elevate, is expected to receive powertrain options in the form of a 1.5-litre petrol engine and a 1.5-litre petrol engine with a hybrid motor. Once launched, the model will take on the Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, MG Astor, Volkswagen Taigun, and Skoda Kushaq.
