Market Position
The Honda Elevate competes in the highly competitive mid-size SUV segment, facing rivals such as:
- Hyundai Creta
- Kia Seltos
- Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara
- Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder
With the price hike, the Elevate’s premium CVT variants inch closer in pricing to some of its competitors’ feature-packed trims, but Honda aims to offset this with the Elevate’s build quality, reliability, and refinement.
The ₹20,000 price hike on select Honda Elevate variants reflects rising input costs but spares most of the lineup, keeping the SUV competitive in its segment. The recently introduced Black Edition provides an attractive option for buyers seeking a more stylish and exclusive offering.
Honda’s combination of a reliable powertrain, premium design, and feature-rich variants ensures that the Elevate continues to appeal to mid-size SUV buyers.
