CVT noise is also high. Road noise, I noticed air booming and wind noise at 80+ speed. I didn't notice any rattling noise. Many are facing issues with infotainment system.
@@autocritic Hi great video! I’m planning to buy a Honda Elevate VX CVT and have a dealer-fitted CNG kit installed costing 80k with 3 year warranty as well.Considering my daily commute of 45 km per day in Gurgaon traffic, do you think this is a good decision? If you have any alternative suggestions, I’d love to hear them. Thanks!
Can you Pls let me know the mileage comparison of Elevate CVT vs Hyryder Automatic in city Condition... i am very much confused between both which one to buy
Bought it. Happy with the car. Insulation is just okay not great. I feel the engine is a little noisy. I agree with you. But Creta and Kia are very unsafe cars. Not worth comparing. Also let's not forget that it has been priced very sensibly and competitively. German cars are also doing lot of cost cutting. VW and Skoda customers have reported expensive maintenance and service quality issues. Their cars are also not very reliable. Too many sensors that fail overtime. Creta is ugly from my view. This looks very classy. The Adas is Fantastic! I am getting city mileage of 14 kpl after 1st service. *Update after 5 months* No more rough engine noise. It has itself become very smooth and buttery. In fact melodious. Bumper to bumper congestion mileage.. expect it to vary around 12 kpl . Normal city traffic it gives between 13.6 to 14.1. Highway mileage - Yet to see
@@agilsrmurthy2578 hi. I'm getting between 13.9 and 14.1 kpl in city traffic in Bangalore (infamous for congestion). Haven't used on long drive yet, so cannot really tell you for highways. Mine is ZX MT
@@amansinha476 Want to check what made you go for MT in bangalore traffic? I am confused between MT and CVT for here in Bangalore. CVT sounds like the logical choice but MT in elevate should be fun to drive.
I wish honda brings more cars to india.....like sub 4 m suv...7 seater....now diesel market is declining...its time for honda stronghold indian market because they have they are the best manufacturers of petrol engine world wide....they shoul bring hybrids at economical cost
Just bought 7 days back and trip Mumbäi to gujrat (Diu) 1700 km up down Its amazing car go for it Happy with VX CVT HEY BROTHER YOUR INFO IS PERFECTLY FINE VERY NICE 👍 KEEP IT UP
I owned ZX manual, even in city massive jammed traffic, mileage is 14.5 , driver must ensure that engine rpm should not cross beyond 2000 rpm, apart of mikeage pickup is as good as of with natural aspirated go like rocket, suspension buttery soft Groud clerance luggage space maximum in the segment
I'm planning for a new car and Elevate is in list. I want a no-nonsense car. Insulation ke liye aftermarket damping sheet can be used. They can add some wow features in the car e.g. ventilated seats, front and rear dash cam etc. Panaromic sunroof isn't very helpful. But can be added in one of the trim to add a wow factor.
We had owned 1st Gen City and was driven around 1.2lac without any issues,currently driving jazz and its clocked 70000 km without any problems. Our next car will be either City or Elevate. Honda's reliability is top notch and peace of mind is unparalleled!!
Good review. I agree with noise insulation part ... I realized it's good till 70 kmph speed after that it becomes noisy but with songs I could manage. BTW I just drove from Bangalore to Coorg and back (ZX CVT) and it gave me 16.3 kmpl for 695 km (which involves a lot of hill driving, little bit of city and quite a bit of expressway). On Bangalore-Mysore expressway (almost full on adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist with speed of 80kmph) it gave me 22+ kmpl mileage, when I reached Coorg it went down to 20kmpl.. later on with lots of hill drive and back to bangalore final number came to 16.3 which I consider very good. This is as per the MID display. One thing I notice if I run the car on idle on lights .. average drops down very fast .. not sure why .. may be it's the MID thing !!
Mileage depends completely on how one drives the car. At 80kmph 22 kmpl is not surprising at all for Elevate. People who crib about mileage usually are the ones who think they are F-1 drivers when it comes to speed.
@sanjayk I feel vx is perfect variant. If you want to have ADAS then only you should spend 2 lacs more. But again 6 airbags n cruise ctrl are missing from vx. Honda did huge costs cutting wherever they could. Cabin noise , no cooled glove box. Small things which could be handled.
I also bought a ZX top variant. I noticed Noise factor during test drive too.....but overall I liked this as a package as my deciding factor was good headroom and high commanding sitting position. Though apparent cost cutting is disappointing. Honda must consider it. I was being offered top variant of Skoda kushaq in same price which offers the advantage of Turbo engine, ventilated seats, and electrically adjustable seats. Other lacunas are absent TMPS and Gear indicators on partial digital console.
I took test ride of Elevate and I can relate with your review. Overall I liked the car but I strongly feel that Honda should have given Cruise control in all CVT variants or atleast with VX. I have delayed my plans because of this missing feature in VX. Now creta is launching in Next month, I will not be surprised if elevate sales goes down in coming months once we have facelift creata and may be curvv by the year end. Updates: Took the test ride again and the noise insulation is another issue which I didn't like about. If you are going to spend 19 lacs on a car , the silent cabin is something which I would prefer. This could be okay for some ppl but do notice this when you go for the test ride. Apart from this noise issue zx is very good car.
@@richaverma403 I think Hyundai is working on safety aspects also , verna is good example of that. If they could provide safety in creta that will be a perfect product though it is already a segment topper. On the other hand Elevate is a good product and I like it but I am afraid that it will grab the initial sale numbers and as months pass it will be just another option in the segment. Not giving the option of Hybrid which is their in-house technology is a blunder.
If you want to spend 3-4 lac extra then you can go for Creta. But I would never buy Creta or Kia. It's now like bhed chaal on the road. Honda's engine are too good. Elevate looking very elegant with good pricing.
Very nice review. I had a test drive of the honda elevate ZX manual on the highway. Its a very good car in terms of comfort, looks, interiors, handling and performance. The NVH levels however are annoying on the highway. The NVH is well contained in the city in slow traffic. but on the highway its too high for my liking. i had to reconsider my purchase. Thanks for the frank review. Very few reviews on the internet mention the NVH issue. The NVH issues are not easy to correct by the user. Hope Honda will correct this issue soon.
Honda elevate zx cvt worth for money Only thing i hate adas for that they should give global 5star rating ,improve power (100km need in 9.5second) , ambient light ,360 camera ,subwoofer ,panaromic sunroof & ventilated seat 🙌
I own a 2018 Honda City Vx (Petrol CVT). You are spot on about reliability and power of the engine. Five years gone and the looks still feel premium. The issues are noise insulation, stiff suspension with little travel which makes you feel each and every surface irregularity. This version of City also has lots of rattle from Dashboard and doors. The stiff suspension makes it worse. Does not feel planted at high speed. The worst portion is that the company never approached me for product feedback. They are not well connected to customers.
Hi, I liked ur video, specially because its unbiased. if u feel like u may add 1. boot space, 2. ground clearance, 3. spare wheel, 4. wheels size, 5. bonet (hydraulic/ manual), steering tilt/telescopic, 6. any fancy tech, 7. 4*4 (if any) dedicated sections
Spot on ! Very good video for someone who is planning to buy Elevate. Honda came very late with a vehicle to offer in this segment but what they have offered actually stands taller than others. Being a Honda vehicle owner myself I completely agree with you on most of the points !
Excellent review. Companies are smart. Like in Honda Elevate, if you want to avoid ADAS2 and go for VX variant, they remove other very useful features such as 6 air bags. All brands do this and tempt customer to go for specific variant.
Yes the top end variants are always having something tempting that the user who has decided to go with mid variants will definitely think about the top variants and especially when it's for long term they will think 1 lk is nothing for 10 year ownership
Thanks dear today I seen your reel’s I serching so many cars after Honda Elevate review but 50% like this car I think VW taigun and Kushaq pl suggest 🙏
Good review.... But on highway I have got mileage of 22+ for more than 100 km drive. Overall 17 for a trip of 635 km where 25% drive was in city with bumper to bumper traffic and lot of traffic jams.
Which Dashdam has been installed in this Elevate? Will activation of Parking camera using separate hardwire kit with the dashcam affects its warranty in any manner? Which 4k dashcam shall you recommend? Vantrue/Redtiger/70mai??
Thanks for the detailed review,Being Honda fan I am little disappointed with Honda Elevate. Honda HRV looks great ,They could have bought that design here from global market to India. Engine with Hybrid option was needed ,Honda Hybrid Engines are out of the world no one can beat them here .(am not a turbo fan).
But is segment mein i.e. Hyundai or Kia to bhi Adas nahi de rahe hai. Jabki Elevate mein top variant mein Adas diya hai. Haa agar City ki tarah Vx varient mein Adas dete to achcha hota.
Fine review. Really covered all the key points. Also the point on the engine, how it is differently calibrated compared to the city, is really nice. Think this will Really makes a huge difference when it comes to drivability. Also good that u have used English a good bit in the review. I understand this better. Thanks !
Excellent analysis......very comprehensive in the empirically required fields....rest all are personal specific likings...Should be sufficient to make the right decisions.
Great review. Just a small suggestion, when you're providing factors, you can add small comparison in the same segment, like in this case, Creta/Seltos/Kushaq. You draw a good comparison though where Elevate stays when compared to other brands.
Sir, I have skoda kushaq 1.0 ltr. 2 days before, I have driven Hinda Elevate CVT transmission. Before taking Kushaq, I have driven Honda City. In terms of handling Kushaq is brilliant. But, in terms of comfort Elevate is excellent. Elevate felt little bit noisy. I can say noisy car in this segment. If you are bored with City then, take Honda elevate. Otherwise no need to update. The strong point of Honda elevate is driver position. It will.give you suv feel.
I am planning to do this on my Amaze. Took delivery yesterday. Made the Service mechanic check the oil, it was synthetic that comes pre loaded. Which is nice of them. I am planning to get the Engine oil and Oil Filter changed for the first service / 1000 kms. Service engineer assures me that its not required and first engine oil change is scheduled at 10,000 kms / 1 year, well, i still would definitely replace the oil and filter at 1000.
Hi prakyat......i have 3rd hand wagnor for driving practice and planning to buy first actual car for my family..... Automatic Elevate and automatic xuv300 is on my mind and confused. . ignoring budget and milage... which car is best in all aspects according to you especially keeping for 10+ years
I took a test drive twice. The first time, on a highway, I experienced some noise at speeds over 40 mph. On another day, on a rough road, I noticed significant lateral and vertical movements as you said I felt car is loosing balance on speed breakers, which raised doubts about the suspension or design. Why do you think it has this issue? Also car was smelly probably as it was standing in sun on a hot day and as per the dealership person it was the smell of leatherette seats
I took a test drive from 2 different showrooms in Indore and I noticed a particular issue with it’s manual transmission. Whenever I tried to shift gear, the engine revs increased for a second of so till the shift is completed. Not really noticeable in low revs but really becomes pronounced at high revs. It’s a very unique issue that I have seen in any car. Those unnecessary revs while shifting gears just take away from the driving experience. Can any Elevate owner confirm upon this? Or is it that it was particularly issue with the pre-production units?
How useful is Cruise control anyway ?! In India even on the highway there is so much traffic. Most drivers do not follow lane discipline which makes slowing down a regular necessity!
Good review. The vehicle seems to have another issue/manufacturing defect (checked on multiple vehicles) in automatic (CVT) transmission. When the brake is partially released on a still car (no hand brake, and in D mode) the brakes make weird metal clanking noise. Service center says it’s normal but don’t see this happening as often in other cars as in elevate. Anyone else noticed this?
I am planning to buy this car as a family car..my budget is 15 lakhs, thinking to buy sv or v manual by next year...should i go with this car.. I can compromise in features but i like premium feel and less service headache in future.. i want a car for atleast 15 years pless tell😊
Super video. Coukd you please help me in selecting the variant. I am planning to buy ZX variant, but confused between Manual and CVT. I live in Hyderabad and based on the traffic my friends suggesting to take CVT. But i am in dialemma which one need to take.
One question how do you rate the build quality. Comparison can be 5 for Vw 4 tata 3 hyundai 2 renault 1 maruti. Where this car fits .. i heard the sheet metal is now down from honda city. So bit concerned whether it matches tata or hyundai
Good video Bro. Is Mileage lesser than Creta 2024 same petrol variants? Not able to find its Honest mileage for automatic on youtube - lots of fake videos Bro😢
Car got launched in September 2023 so they have not made any changes in 2024 since it is only 4-5 months old..I am saying this specifically since I am buying this car and dealership has confirmed this. In fact I am getting delivery in only 1 week only + Rs 61000 discount since I am buying a car with manufacturing year 2023, but of course you dont get choice of colour, thankfully I liked one among the ones available. Else wait is around 2 months.
The looks in the videos are actually descent. The front has got a boxy and bold design but the rear looks little like a jacked up hatchback. The width of the car could have been more like 1810 - 1830 mm. Apt recipe for an SUV with ground clearance and commanding driving position but without any 4 wheel drive hardware. Honda could have given 1.5 L turbocharged IVTEC engine which produces around 175 bhp and it's available in other Asian markets for HRV, Civic, etc... Rest all are typical Honda - quality, reliability and durability.
@@Humani11 i would suggest 1.5 NA engine MT from honda over 1 ltr turbo or even 1.5 turbo from Skoda / vw , if u r looking for a car with least maintainanace and very long term. And if you like to drive a car which is peppy and confident on roads but ok with high on maintainance in comparision, go for Kushaq.
@Humani11 Its 1.5 ltr engine, and for same cost you would get Kushaq 1 ltr, turbo kills the milege and increases wear and tear. Also cabin noise in Elevate is more because of less insulation and could be fixed through aftermarket means. AT in Elevate is cvt, which is considered very costly in terms of repairs, Honda's cvt is best but still is a cvt. Better than dct and lower to amt in terms of reliability. If you are a discipined driver, go for it. I am not, so not for me!! Off course VW/ Skoda engines are fun to drive but rarely last long as much as Honda's.
I do own i20, self driven, with 3 members family...Now I do want to upgrade to suv. I do go long tour with family n friends.... My priorities are safety,performance reliability, and handling. Now short-listed Xuv300 Turbo and Honda Elevate. Budget around 12-14 Lakhs. Pl do suggest which one I should go for...
You can add Insulation by spending another 20-30 k. But I think Japanese engineers over estimate our road surface and think that much insulation is not needed.
Parts cost you mentioned Honda lies between Hyundai and VW but its actually same or similar to Hyundai... Hyundai psrts are also as expensive as Honda as per my friend's and relatives' cars. Only Maruti psrts are cheap and with part sharing even bigger cars' parts are not expensive
Superb video!! Thank you so much for this. Crisp and clear.
CVT noise is also high. Road noise, I noticed air booming and wind noise at 80+ speed. I didn't notice any rattling noise. Many are facing issues with infotainment system.

Lovely break up of the timeline and every minute made sense - I own Honda Elevate ZX CVT -- its a fantastic machine to treasure for many many years!
Can we turn off the ADAS features completely and activate only when we want? Or does ADAS turn on automatically every time the car starts..?
@@AB-mo8zp it activates everytime we start. I own ZX Mt.. LOVELY MACHINE
I'm planning for a new car and Elevate is in list. I want a no-nonsense car. Insulation ke liye aftermarket damping sheet can be used.

After looking at many ACC reviews, I think I did mistake by buying VX variant. Should have gone for ZX
I have booked elevate v cvt
@cctiwari hi did you feel CVT under power while climbing over a hilly terrain?
@sanjayk I feel vx is perfect variant. If you want to have ADAS then only you should spend 2 lacs more. But again 6 airbags n cruise ctrl are missing from vx. Honda did huge costs cutting wherever they could. Cabin noise , no cooled glove box. Small things which could be handled.
Between 2:55 till 3:00 minutes a legend passed the Elevate. Miss the legend.

Though apparent cost cutting is disappointing. Honda must consider it. I was being offered top variant of Skoda kushaq in same price which offers the advantage of Turbo engine, ventilated seats, and electrically adjustable seats.

What’s the NCAP safety ratings of this car
I took a test drive twice. The first time, on a highway, I experienced some noise at speeds over 40 mph.

Why do you think it has this issue?
Also car was smelly probably as it was standing in sun on a hot day and as per the dealership person it was the smell of leatherette seats
How about safety ?
Does it make sense to purchase a Honda 300F now. If not please suggest an alternative.
Skoda Kushaq is bit better but looks smaller Car
Can you please do review of Brezza like this ?
Brilliant analysis ❤
I took a test drive from 2 different showrooms in Indore and I noticed a particular issue with it’s manual transmission. Whenever I tried to shift gear, the engine revs increased for a second of so till the shift is completed. Not really noticeable in low revs but really becomes pronounced at high revs. It’s a very unique issue that I have seen in any car. Those unnecessary revs while shifting gears just take away from the driving experience. Can any Elevate owner confirm upon this? Or is it that it was particularly issue with the pre-production units?
Thanks. Please do a video on CVT as well.
How useful is Cruise control anyway ?! In India even on the highway there is so much traffic. Most drivers do not follow lane discipline which makes slowing down a regular necessity!
Good review. The vehicle seems to have another issue/manufacturing defect (checked on multiple vehicles) in automatic (CVT) transmission. When the brake is partially released on a still car (no hand brake, and in D mode) the brakes make weird metal clanking noise. Service center says it’s normal but don’t see this happening as often in other cars as in elevate. Anyone else noticed this?
yes me too and its pretty normal
Outstanding academic review 👌👌👌 thanks for the information 💓💓🌹
Good & informative, nice presentation 😊
I am planning to buy this car as a family car..my budget is 15 lakhs, thinking to buy sv or v manual by next year...should i go with this car..

Very well elaborate each n every point .. Good review 👍
Very good and honest review. Can you please advise on how it perform on hills areas
Super video. Coukd you please help me in selecting the variant. I am planning to buy ZX variant, but confused between Manual and CVT. I live in Hyderabad and based on the traffic my friends suggesting to take CVT. But i am in dialemma which one need to take.
Same here
SUPER 👌 ELEVATE HONDA ❤ SUPER 👌
One question how do you rate the build quality. Comparison can be
5 for Vw
4 tata
3 hyundai
2 renault
1 maruti.
Where this car fits .. i heard the sheet metal is now down from honda city.
So bit concerned whether it matches tata or hyundai
Good video Bro. Is Mileage lesser than Creta 2024 same petrol variants? Not able to find its Honest mileage for automatic on youtube - lots of fake videos Bro😢
I purchased 2023 model zx manual in 16 lacs with accessories…does anyone got better price?
My only concern is cabin noise in this car else this is probably an amazing option in this segment
Good Review.How about essential accessories for Elevate?
Very elaborate and informative video.
Is this 2023 elevate model or 2024? Also , any major difference in these two models ?
Car got launched in September 2023 so they have not made any changes in 2024 since it is only 4-5 months old..I am saying this specifically since I am buying this car and dealership has confirmed this. In fact I am getting delivery in only 1 week only + Rs 61000 discount since I am buying a car with manufacturing year 2023, but of course you dont get choice of colour, thankfully I liked one among the ones available. Else wait is around 2 months.
Thanks for your response and confirmation. Good to know about the discounts on 23 model. I will keep this in mind
How many videos on single car? Repeated videos of Ekevate, punch , exter, kushaq, Fronx,,,,,,
Please make video on Brezza TC...
Request
The looks in the videos are actually descent. The front has got a boxy and bold design but the rear looks little like a jacked up hatchback. The width of the car could have been more like 1810 - 1830 mm. Apt recipe for an SUV with ground clearance and commanding driving position but without any 4 wheel drive hardware.
Honda could have given 1.5 L turbocharged IVTEC engine which produces around 175 bhp and it's available in other Asian markets for HRV, Civic, etc... Rest all are typical Honda - quality, reliability and durability.
Elevate or Toyota hyryder strong hybrid? Confused
Kindly also include best value for money variants to buy for the car which is being reviewed in each of your videos. Thanks 👍
Hi Prayakt.. Can you make a comparison video b/w Kushaq and Elevate pls.?
Good Review - Please cover the CVT trim as well from engine/power/hill driving point of view
V.Balanced Review
Thanks!!👍🌹
I'll be elevating myself with a ZX CVT Elevate very soon 😊
I've cancelled my nexon creative + booking and booked elevate zx. What do you think?
Good decision
Kushaq is comfortable or not and what about cabin noise in it? Should I go and buy kushaq if it’s reliable?
@@Humani11 i would suggest 1.5 NA engine MT from honda over 1 ltr turbo or even 1.5 turbo from Skoda / vw , if u r looking for a car with least maintainanace and very long term. And if you like to drive a car which is peppy and confident on roads but ok with high on maintainance in comparision, go for Kushaq.
@ one more query, how about elevate AT,the only issue I felt wd elevate is cabin insulation is bad and interior is cheap.
@Humani11 Its 1.5 ltr engine, and for same cost you would get Kushaq 1 ltr, turbo kills the milege and increases wear and tear. Also cabin noise in Elevate is more because of less insulation and could be fixed through aftermarket means. AT in Elevate is cvt, which is considered very costly in terms of repairs, Honda's cvt is best but still is a cvt. Better than dct and lower to amt in terms of reliability. If you are a discipined driver, go for it. I am not, so not for me!! Off course VW/ Skoda engines are fun to drive but rarely last long as much as Honda's.
@@AdarshTiwary thanks
Is there friction in manual transmission, I felt at test drive
What is the expected date of punch facelift launch.
Could you please review the cvt version
I do own i20, self driven, with 3 members family...Now I do want to upgrade to suv. I do go long tour with family n friends....
My priorities are safety,performance reliability, and handling.
Now short-listed Xuv300 Turbo and Honda Elevate.
Budget around 12-14 Lakhs.
Pl do suggest which one I should go for...
Go with Honda but if possible try to buy the higher varient.
Well, I was forced to go with VX MT in Amaze because there was no Cruise Control in VX CVT.
great content, covered all aspects
Cvt ka review kahan hai?
Well explained
Keep up the good work
You can add Insulation by spending another 20-30 k. But I think Japanese engineers over estimate our road surface and think that much insulation is not needed.
I sincerely hope Honda comes out with ADAS on its Amaze 2024 CVT. That would beat almost all competition in the compact budget sedan segment.
Parts cost you mentioned Honda lies between Hyundai and VW but its actually same or similar to Hyundai... Hyundai psrts are also as expensive as Honda as per my friend's and relatives' cars. Only Maruti psrts are cheap and with part sharing even bigger cars' parts are not expensive
