Honda Cars India, a subsidiary of the Japanese multinational manufacturer Honda, has announced the start of production of the highly anticipated Honda Elevate at its Tapukara manufacturing factory.
The all-new Elevate SUV will make its debut in the Indian car market later this month. Honda Elevate bookings began a few weeks ago, and the car has gotten an incredible response from customers across the country. Elevate has a significant waiting list even before its formal launch in India in September. Honda plans to reveal the Elevate’s pricing in the first week of September, just in time for the holiday season.
Honda’s Tapukara manufacturing factory is critical to the Honda Elevate’s development. This cutting-edge factory, located in the northern state of Rajasthan, is outfitted with cutting-edge equipment and a highly skilled personnel. The plant has a solid production line that can handle India’s expanding demand for Honda automobiles. The Tapukara facility has long been a key component in Honda’s manufacturing capabilities, with a focus on quality and efficiency.
The Honda Elevate, Honda’s latest worldwide mid-size SUV, stands out with its completely new and compelling design both inside and out, displaying a perfect balance of modern aesthetics and rugged appeal. The Honda Elevate draws attention on the road with its bold and muscular design. The front grille features a vertically-aligned design complemented by a chrome garnish, while sleek LED headlights and fog lamps lend a touch of refinement.
The side profile incorporates silver-colored roof rails and chrome-finished rearview mirrors, as well as body cladding around the wheel arches and bottom of the door panels. A roof-mounted spoiler and inverted L-shaped combo tail lights with LED inserts complete the fascinating look.
The Honda Elevate’s interior features a wonderful combination of dual-tone black and brown leather upholstery that exudes modernity and elegance. Along with the 7-inch TFT screen in the instrument panel and the 10.25-inch touchscreen entertainment system, the SUV has a slew of modern technologies, such as automated climate control and a handy push start-stop button.
Honda’s commitment to safety is shown by the Elevate’s advanced safety features, which include six airbags, a Lanewatch camera, and Level-2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) technology. The full safety suite is designed to give passengers a safe and comfortable driving experience.
In terms of powertrains, the Honda Elevate shares its base and powerplant options with the well-known City sedan. The SUV’s 1.5-liter four-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine produces 121 PS of maximum output and 145 Nm of peak torque. Buyers will be able to select between a 6-speed manual gearbox and a smooth CVT gearbox.
The Elevate promises an enjoyable and efficient ride, with claimed fuel efficiency statistics of 15.31 kmpl for the manual option and 16.92 kmpl for the CVT variant. The upcoming debut of the Honda Elevate promises to shake up India’s mid-size SUV category, competing against popular models such as the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Skoda Kushaq, VW Taigun, and others.
