Honda Elevate Facelift Launched From ₹11.80 Lakh in India
Oct 8, 2026The Spec'd take
Why it stands out
- A proper three-box sedan with a 420 litre boot for barely hatchback money, and the S MT undercuts the new third-gen Amaze by a clear margin in Delhi.
- The 1.2 litre i-VTEC is a sweet, rev-happy four cylinder with 90 PS, and it is E20 compliant.
- One of the most affordable ways into a CVT automatic sedan, which makes city traffic genuinely relaxed.
- Sensible S grade kit: dual airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX, rear parking sensor, power folding mirrors and Bluetooth audio with steering controls.
- Honda backs it with 3 year unlimited km standard warranty, plus extended and 10 year anytime warranty options.
Worth knowing
- Global NCAP gave it only 2 stars for adults and 0 for children (2024), well behind the newer Dzire's 5 stars for adults
- Only the S grade is on sale now, so there is no touchscreen, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, rear camera or automatic climate control.
- Halogen headlamps, 14 inch steel wheels with covers and drum rear brakes make it feel its age next to newer rivals.
- The CVT asks for a big jump over the manual, which puts it close to the newer third-gen Amaze pricing.
- No factory CNG option; Honda dealers only offer a government approved retrofit kit on select versions.
