2023 Honda Elevate Features Leaked Ahead Of Launch | V3Cars

2023 Honda Elevate Variants And Features

Like the Honda City C-segment sedan, the Elevate is available in a total of 4 variants – SV, V, VX and ZX. Here’s what each variant of the Honda Elevate is likely to offer based on the latest leak:

Honda Elevate SV: The SV variant of Honda’s C-segment SUV is expected to get features such as LED projector headlamps, LED tail lights and 16-inch wheels on the outside. Other features are likely to include dual airbags, automatic climate control, air purifier, beige fabric seat upholstery, engine start-stop button and 60:40 split rear seats.

Honda Elevate V: The V variant is likely to adds a couple of must-have features over the SV variant, including an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, Honda Connect, rear-view camera and steering-mounted controls for media and telephony.

Honda Elevate VX: The VX variant is likely to get an electric sunroof, 17-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, roof rails, a 7-inch multi-information display (MID), Honda Lane Watch camera, wireless charging, auto-folding ORVMs, LED projector fog lights and 6 speakers.

Honda Elevate ZX: The ZX will be the top-spec variant of the Elevate just as in the City C-segment sedan. This variant is likely to offer advanced driver assistance system ADAS, a larger 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, side and curtain airbags, 8-speakers and auto-dimming IRVMs over the VX variant. It is also likely to offer brown leatherette upholstery with soft-touch materials of the dashboard.

While the leaked feature list does give us an idea about what’s on offer with the Elevate, we are unsure of the exact breakup of features across the variants. We suggest waiting for Honda to release the official brochure for the Elevate before narrowing down on a variant of your choice. The leaked data suggests ADAS will only be on offer in the top-spec ZX variant of the Elevate. However, Honda offers ADAS even in the middle variant of the City sedan and we can not expect them to do the same with the Elevate as well. Therefore, take the leaked feature list of the Elevate with a pich of salt.
