I use an iPhone, now whether it’s the iPhone or the wireless charger is the question. 2. The Wireless Apple Car Play has a glitch, gets disconnected sometimes.

Hi ,I recently booked elevate VX cvt varient,so do we need to install TPMS as part of accessories? If yes did you buy from dealership or after market .
TPMS is not at all necessary, i don't recommend to install it. If it had been an integrated feature, it would have been a different story altogethee, but when it is not there and is not a very important feature, then why get it installed later! VX CVT is a great value for money variant, i have the same, and i haven't got anything done after purchasing it. Just buy your Elevate and enjoy the ride :)
@@satishpantadi4901 It is important to select a segment first, as both the cars are from different segments. Nexon is Sub-4 Meter SUV whereas Elevate is bigger and more spacious. Other features can then be compared as per your requirement.
Honda cars have amazing AC performance, and this Honda Elevate SUV also has a very powerful AC. I can't say about your test drive experience, but my Honda Elevate's AC works very well, and makes the car chilled even in peak summers. No doubts about the AC performance at all :)
@@mubaraksandhu thank you sir, I would like to ask you how does the car behave with 5 people and full luggage at highway speed i:e 130kmph..,..does it have body roll and vertical movement?
@@BtyStoic20 Well, I have never driven my Honda Elevate at that speed. I always drive at speeds less than 100kmph, and suggest everyone to avoid driving so fast. On highways, there is no body roll at all, the drive is very smooth and safe.
bro how is the under thigh support n comfort of elevate in front row i m 6 ft tall will it be comfortsble for me i am planning to upgrade from baleno considering elevate,xuv3xo or brezza
Initially, you will definitely feel lack of under thigh support. With time, you will get used to it. My height is 6'1, it was difficult for me to adjust in the beginning, now I find the driver seat comfortable and fine according to my sitting posture. You must take 2-3 test drives to understand the comfort and dynamics of the car before spending your hard earned money, please don't just go by the reviews :) Also, it is important to compare cars of same segments. Comparing cars of sub-4 meter segment with a bigger vehicle is not recommended and fair, as Elevate comes in a bigger segment than the other two mentioned by you. Make a list of your priority requirements, see which car best fulfills all those, and buy it right away. All these cars are amazing in their own ways, so just go ahead, purchase one and enjoy the ride.
@@RipulGhosh Hi. No, you can just push the start button without pressing the brake, the infotainment system will start just like it starts on half-self in cars without push button option.
@@RipulGhosh Best wishes, enjoy the ride. I am sure Honda's buying experience will be good at any dealership. For cabin noise explanation, you can watch my video that will clear all your doubts: ua-cam.com/video/WFKUnYIedHI/v-deo.htmlsi=51EHiYzFA_I2z7Gg
If you want value for money get the Manual Version. I personally have the VX MT and I have been really satisfied with the car. It makes no sense to pay 1.3 lakh more for CVT. CVT is okay for the city but you will feel that Manual makes more sense if you drive more on the highway. Elevate MT is 1.5 seconds quicker in 0-100 so you get better performance with the manual. Another thing is that the Noise levels is less in Manual.
What you are saying is just your opinion and not a fact, so it has to be said according to your perspective and not as if it is the only truth available. 1. In Punjab, the on-road price difference of VX MT and VX CVT was around Rs.90,000/- when i purchased the car. 2. In my opinion and according to my driving style, CVT makes more sense both on highways and in city. CVT gives more mileage on highway as it is a 7-speed CVT gearbox while MT is only 6-speed gearbox. If the car is driven at same speed in a higher gear, it will definitely give more mileage. And CVT is a blessing in city as well. 3. I am not a speed enthusiast at all, I like gradual acceleration, and CVT is more than sufficient when it comes to pick-up, so even if MT goes from 0-100 in 5 seconds less time, it will still not matter to me as I never like to accelerate like this. 4. Noise levels might be less in MT, but as far as Engine noise or NVH levels are concerned, I am satisfied with Honda Elevate CVT in every way, a little more noise than other cars does not mean that it is something to hate, it is totally alright and I have even shared videos about mileage and NVH levels earlier. 5. All in all, it was your choice to buy MT, good that you are liking it and enjoying your ride. Those who purchased CVT, it was their choice and priority as it suited their budget also. Both MT and CVT are good according to the preference of the respective customers.
@@mubaraksandhu 1. Look I get it that you prefer CVT but it will still not change the fact that Manual is quicker and will be better on Hills and Highways. 2. CVT is more fuel efficient on Highway but Manual is more efficient in the City so it is not that much of a difference. You don't need to be a speed enthusiast to need power. When driving on single lane roads where there are lots of trucks I need the power to quickly and safely overtake. It is a misconception that only speed enthusiasts need more power. 3. Another fact, which is true regardless of who you ask, is that the manual has less noise. The CVT makes much more noise. I don't get why you are arguing against facts. In my opinion the only reason to buy the CVT is if you are someone who wants to get the maximum mileage possible from the engine. CVT just takes the fun out of driving.
@@AabhashPandey Just because I shared my opinion which went against yours does not mean it is an argument. In a discussion, both the parties share their perspectives in a healthy way, and that's what I always do, which helps me connect better with the viewers here. Moreover, what you are saying here is purely your own opinion according to your driving style or your choice of a vehicle, that does not make it a fact and so you should learn to respect he opinion of others also when you share your opinion on a public platform. Replying now to the points you wrote: 1. I have driven lacs of KMs in MT cars including Zen, City, Verna Fluidic, Elite i20. Elevate is my first CVT car, so an automatic car has not always been a preference, I just happened to make my mind for it and am now loving the decision I made. Next thing, as I shared earlier, MT being quicker than CVT is not a concern for me at all, so this fact has negligible effect on any buyer who wants to buy a CVT in any car. MT might be better on hills, but yet again, that does not mean CVT is not convenient at all or that CVT is not at all fun, I have travelled in hills and on highways with Elevate CVT and have loved the experience, not missing my MT cars at all, thanks to the amazing performance CVT gives. 2. MT is more fuel efficient in city, but CVT is far more convenient considering the increasing traffic on roads. Also, you can check my previous videos where I have already talked about driving on single roads and overtaking in tight patches of road, Elevate CVT responds very quickly to our acceleration requirement, and overtakes in such situations very easily and safely. I have discussed about this in my ownership experience videos already. Yet again, it is important to mention that this is never said in comparison with MT cars, I share what i experience, very honestly and genuinely, it is not always important to compare, just sharing about the current situation or product is also important, to help viewers understand the response that product gives us in real life situation. 3. I have already shared about this another fact regardless of what you say, that I do not find the Elevate CVT noisy. The noise may be more than MT or even more than many other cars, but i love that sound when engine roars when we press the acceleration paddle. That sound shows the feedback of engine according to the acceleration that we want from it, so the fact that CVT is more noisy is very much fine with me, as it is with many other buyers whom I know. In my opinion, the only reason to buy CVT is not to get maximum mileage, when you are yourself saying that it gives lesser mileage in city, then how can this be the only reason! There can be many reasons to buy CVT, the biggest reason is the convenience and ease of driving considering the increasing traffic nowadays. After driving lacs of KMs in MT cars, my experience with Elevate CVT is that it is more fun to drive than MTs. It adds more fun to driving wherever we go, in city or hills or highways or on bad off-road patches too, as it picks up the gears itself and gives a great experience to the driver, with no concern of shifting the gears manually. And well, if needed, paddle shifters are always there to downshift and accelerate, but I haven't used them ever, the pickup and performance is already great in Elevate CVT. This is not an argument against any fact. I always connect with my viewers here, and I feel that I should respond to viewers who take out time and write something in comments. It is an exchange of opinions here, and not a one-way dialogue, so you should respect when someone responds to your comment, rather than feeling bad about it and calling it an argument. Every customer has own preferences and priorities based on a lot of different aspects, it is good to share those aspects in a way that those are someone's opinions, and not facts that cannot be disagreed upon.
mileage in automatic cvt. What should I buy bw toyita hyryder and elevate. I heard toyota insurance is best in claiming and its mileage compare to elevate.
Hi. Claiming insurance can vary according to insurance company and also according to dealerships, it would be better if you compare your requirements for the car, and spend your hard-earned money accordingly. Mileage of Hyryder is better as it has less power than Elevate and it further increases for hybrid variants. Its all about making up your mind, both cars will surely fulfill your needs.
Go to JK tyre showroom They will install it in all 5 tyres. The details will be available via Bluetooth on your phone. Works well. It also gives notifications for low or high pressure. I have experience of more than 6 months
Very nice video. Thank you for sharing your genuine feedback. One question… is there any rattling sound in the cabin or any poor fir and finish problem?
Hi, I haven't faced any issue of rattling sound till now. Also, the interiors are fine and there is no problem with their finishing. If there is any other specific part of car about which you have heard about rattling or poor finish, kindly share so that I can also enquire about it further :)

Bhai aap bahut cencerly view dete ho, plz suggest me kusaq base vs elevate base. I want a family car for 15 years, driving 1000 monthly, plz reply. Thanks
Family car for 15 years, and 1000 kms monthly k hisab se Honda brand apne aap me hi best naam hai. Long term reliability k liye Honda hi leni chahiye, aur apki options dekhe to Elevate achi car hai. Mujhe kushaq k features ka zaada nahi pta, lekin maine pehle Honda City 15 years tk rakhi hai, aur ab Elevate bhi 10 years tk zrur rakhunga, isi soch k sath khareedi thi. To mujhe lagta hai apko Elevate leni chahiye. Baaki, features aap zrur compare kr lena aur apne budet k hisab se price bhi check kr lena dono cars k, bcoz mujhe inke latest prices nahi pta hain. Best wishes.
Have concern about CVT for its low end torque in hills and also compare to Torque converter which is considered as the best automatic transmission in terms of pickup and durability .. I am confused Elevate with bXUV 3XO which offers u Torque converter and pappy engine .. I am ok with XUV 3XO space . Price wise elevate VX and XUV’s AX5 are almost similar.. Please guide ..
Somehow I missed your comment and was not able to reply earlier. All 3 cars that you are comparing are of different segment, your confusion will never end if you will try to choose between 3 different segments. First of all, you must shortlist your requirements, then the size of vehicle you want to buy, of course the budget that you can fix, and then decide wisely where to spend your hard-earned money :) I have driven my Elevate CVT in hills too, I didn't feel any issue with its power there, it serves the purpose very well. If you prefer a car with more torque and peppy engine, go for your choise of 3XO, and if you want a bigger vehicle with more space and better road presence, you can go for the other options. All the cars have something more or less than the other cars, so eventually, whichever car you will buy, I am sure it will fulfil most of your requirements, it just comes down to making up your mind and choosing one out of many :)

Consider these videos totally authentic as these are based on real life ownership experience of Honda Elevate. Moreover, both the videos have sufficient proofs about whatever is being discussed.
@@mubaraksandhu , I suggest you try the XP-95 petrol from India Oil. I use the same regularly now and am getting 17+ mileage consistently with AC on Highways. Also the pick up and engine refinement gets improved with XP-95. (note I have ZX CVT variant)
Hi. I haven't felt the rubber band effect at all. I would suggest you to test drive and clear your doubt yourself also, so that no confusion is left on this topic :)
ELEVATE is based on CITY but does not offer same Rear Seat width & Comfort. At the same time ELEVATE does not offer WOW factor nor offer the same variant Feature list as CITY. At the same time NVH levels are high when compared to CITY. Elevate offers poor efficiency than City. Than why should you buy it against CITY. And the same time Showroom Sales Rep. also wants to sell CITY over ELEVATE. It fails miserably against Competition offerings as far as Engine Options are concern. It seems Honda is offering Stepmotherly treatment to ELEVATE against CITY. That's the reason why they are not offering TPMS & Ventilated Front Seats.. આ major miss in it's class HONDA has lost its overall credibility as Brand in India. Virtus has out scored City by offering better Ground clearance & Turbo engine options.
I agree that the 'assumption' that NCAP ratings will be 5 star should not be made. Let the actual tests be done and we'll all know. However, I believe it is injustice to assess built quality on the basis of fit and finishing and interior plastic quality. Also, looking at the interiors, I believe you're talking about VX where yes, Honda has compromised on plastics quality a bit. In ZX, the panel gaps and interior plastic-fabric quality are really good and gives you an up-market feel and confidence.
Interior quality is being discussed to highlight the compromises, like the plastic quality, which is same in ZX variant also. I am fully satisfied with seats and many other interiors and features even in VX, but that feel of compromise comes up at times. Build quality, specially panel gaps, are totally same in VX and ZX variants. Fit and finish of windows is also same across both these variants. The chassis and measurements of doors/boot/bonnet etc do not change at all, they are exactly the same across variants, changes are made on features and add-ons other than these basic structural parameters which build the fundamental structure of car, which is same in all variants. I am still happy and satisfied with Honda Elevate, it is an amazing product in this price. And because the prices have already increased, it becomes an even better product for customers like us who purchased at lesser price last year :)
@@mubaraksandhu Oh yes. I agree with you that compromises have been made on fit and finish and plastic quality. Just that structural integrity of chassis can be asserted only after crash test because it depends on the chassis skeleton. Anyway, on your last point on price, I booked ZX CVT last year and I'm expecting to receive it in May (I asked for May specifically). So, can you please tell me whether I'll be charged higher price or the price at which I booked? I'm very excited to finally get my hands on it.
@@zattwik You will be charged the current price now. When i purchased, the Honda representative informed me that whenever we take the delivery of car, the rates at the time of delivery apply to us and not the rates that were there at the time of booking.
@@mubaraksandhuto improve sales everybody are following maruti/hyundai -poor build quality Take it toyota -started selling maruti cars by re-badging Vw/skoda 2.0 vehicle less quality than their discontinued products Honda has degraded their body parts to lower quality ones(cost cutting) Tata is the one which benefitted immensely by giving strong build quality and marketing it very well . Remember nexon was the first 5 star rated car! Then Mahindra started marketing xuv300 . Tata and Mahindra managed with their marketing to cut down marutis market share !! Honda/toyota could have easily done that .i feel Honda and toyota doesn’t deserve to be in India
Elevate sales getting down therefore they installed 6 airbags as a standard. Koreans cars have 6 air bag standard their sales is sky rocking. I am owner of Elevate but not happy with the Elevate. In coming months it's sales will not be increasing.
Questions honda should answer: 1) why stupid camera based ADAS, Indians are not stupid. Its just a gimmick and useless on Indian roads. 2) Why so much nvh when you compare it to the city? 3) Why no simple cruise system? Just simply let driver control the steering and brakes. 4) Also why not flat bedded the rear seat, why give a bumpy raised seat in mid. Especially when you selling it to India. And poor track record of Honda with their varient launches and discontinuing them. They just focus more on selling bikes and activa.
1) That's why i opted for VX variant :) 2) Yes, NVH is higher as compared, but somehow it is not a deal breaker because it is not that much! 3) Again, that's why i opted for VX variant :) Saved money by not going for such features :) 4) Yes, flat seat is definitely far more comfortable than the raised seat. Honda Elevate is doing fine till now after one year of its launch. For the time being, it seems that Honda won't discontinue Elevate, it is not that bad in performance and sales. But yes, some issues are definitely there which must be addressed. I have already made videos of many more issues than mentioned by you here, but thanks for writing and sharing your points👍
Na to maine comparison kia, na hi ye kahaa k Elevate ka camera best hai aur na hi ye kahaa k is se acha camera ho hi nahi sakta ! Jo camera Elevate mein mil raha hai, maine to uska feedback dia hai, wo bhi 6 months aur 8700km chalaane k baad.

CVT is okay for the city but you will feel that Manual makes more sense if you drive more on the highway. Elevate MT is 1.5 seconds quicker in 0-100 so you get better performance with the manual. Another thing is that the Noise levels is less in Manual.
What you are saying is just your opinion and not a fact, so it has to be said according to your perspective and not as if it is the only truth available.
1. In Punjab, the on-road price difference of VX MT and VX CVT was around Rs.90,000/- when i purchased the car.
2. In my opinion and according to my driving style, CVT makes more sense both on highways and in city. CVT gives more mileage on highway as it is a 7-speed CVT gearbox while MT is only 6-speed gearbox. If the car is driven at same speed in a higher gear, it will definitely give more mileage. And CVT is a blessing in city as well.
3. I am not a speed enthusiast at all, I like gradual acceleration, and CVT is more than sufficient when it comes to pick-up, so even if MT goes from 0-100 in 5 seconds less time, it will still not matter to me as I never like to accelerate like this.
4. Noise levels might be less in MT, but as far as Engine noise or NVH levels are concerned, I am satisfied with Honda Elevate CVT in every way, a little more noise than other cars does not mean that it is something to hate, it is totally alright and I have even shared videos about mileage and NVH levels earlier.
5. All in all, it was your choice to buy MT, good that you are liking it and enjoying your ride. Those who purchased CVT, it was their choice and priority as it suited their budget also. Both MT and CVT are good according to the preference of the respective customers.

1. Look I get it that you prefer CVT but it will still not change the fact that Manual is quicker and will be better on Hills and Highways.
2. CVT is more fuel efficient on Highway but Manual is more efficient in the City so it is not that much of a difference.
You don't need to be a speed enthusiast to need power. When driving on single lane roads where there are lots of trucks I need the power to quickly and safely overtake. It is a misconception that only speed enthusiasts need more power.
3. Another fact, which is true regardless of who you ask, is that the manual has less noise. The CVT makes much more noise.
I don't get why you are arguing against facts. In my opinion the only reason to buy the CVT is if you are someone who wants to get the maximum mileage possible from the engine. CVT just takes the fun out of driving.
@@AabhashPandey Just because I shared my opinion which went against yours does not mean it is an argument. In a discussion, both the parties share their perspectives in a healthy way, and that's what I always do, which helps me connect better with the viewers here. Moreover, what you are saying here is purely your own opinion according to your driving style or your choice of a vehicle, that does not make it a fact and so you should learn to respect he opinion of others also when you share your opinion on a public platform.
Replying now to the points you wrote:
1. I have driven lacs of KMs in MT cars including Zen, City, Verna Fluidic, Elite i20. Elevate is my first CVT car, so an automatic car has not always been a preference, I just happened to make my mind for it and am now loving the decision I made. Next thing, as I shared earlier, MT being quicker than CVT is not a concern for me at all, so this fact has negligible effect on any buyer who wants to buy a CVT in any car. MT might be better on hills, but yet again, that does not mean CVT is not convenient at all or that CVT is not at all fun, I have travelled in hills and on highways with Elevate CVT and have loved the experience, not missing my MT cars at all, thanks to the amazing performance CVT gives.
2. MT is more fuel efficient in city, but CVT is far more convenient considering the increasing traffic on roads. Also, you can check my previous videos where I have already talked about driving on single roads and overtaking in tight patches of road, Elevate CVT responds very quickly to our acceleration requirement, and overtakes in such situations very easily and safely. I have discussed about this in my ownership experience videos already. Yet again, it is important to mention that this is never said in comparison with MT cars, I share what i experience, very honestly and genuinely, it is not always important to compare, just sharing about the current situation or product is also important, to help viewers understand the response that product gives us in real life situation.
3. I have already shared about this another fact regardless of what you say, that I do not find the Elevate CVT noisy. The noise may be more than MT or even more than many other cars, but i love that sound when engine roars when we press the acceleration paddle. That sound shows the feedback of engine according to the acceleration that we want from it, so the fact that CVT is more noisy is very much fine with me, as it is with many other buyers whom I know.
In my opinion, the only reason to buy CVT is not to get maximum mileage, when you are yourself saying that it gives lesser mileage in city, then how can this be the only reason! There can be many reasons to buy CVT, the biggest reason is the convenience and ease of driving considering the increasing traffic nowadays. After driving lacs of KMs in MT cars, my experience with Elevate CVT is that it is more fun to drive than MTs. It adds more fun to driving wherever we go, in city or hills or highways or on bad off-road patches too, as it picks up the gears itself and gives a great experience to the driver, with no concern of shifting the gears manually. And well, if needed, paddle shifters are always there to downshift and accelerate, but I haven't used them ever, the pickup and performance is already great in Elevate CVT.
This is not an argument against any fact. I always connect with my viewers here, and I feel that I should respond to viewers who take out time and write something in comments. It is an exchange of opinions here, and not a one-way dialogue, so you should respect when someone responds to your comment, rather than feeling bad about it and calling it an argument. Every customer has own preferences and priorities based on a lot of different aspects, it is good to share those aspects in a way that those are someone's opinions, and not facts that cannot be disagreed upon.

mileage in automatic cvt. What should I buy bw toyita hyryder and elevate. I heard toyota insurance is best in claiming and its mileage compare to elevate.
Hi. Claiming insurance can vary according to insurance company and also according to dealerships, it would be better if you compare your requirements for the car, and spend your hard-earned money accordingly. Mileage of Hyryder is better as it has less power than Elevate and it further increases for hybrid variants. Its all about making up your mind, both cars will surely fulfill your needs.
TPMS ? How to solve this? How I can install same???😅
Go to JK tyre showroom
They will install it in all 5 tyres.
The details will be available via Bluetooth on your phone.
Works well. It also gives notifications for low or high pressure.

Very nice video. Thank you for sharing your genuine feedback. One question… is there any rattling sound in the cabin or any poor fir and finish problem?
Hi, I haven't faced any issue of rattling sound till now. Also, the interiors are fine and there is no problem with their finishing. If there is any other specific part of car about which you have heard about rattling or poor finish, kindly share so that I can also enquire about it further :)

Bhai aap bahut cencerly view dete ho, plz suggest me kusaq base vs elevate base.
I want a family car for 15 years, driving 1000 monthly, plz reply. Thanks
Family car for 15 years, and 1000 kms monthly k hisab se Honda brand apne aap me hi best naam hai. Long term reliability k liye Honda hi leni chahiye, aur apki options dekhe to Elevate achi car hai. Mujhe kushaq k features ka zaada nahi pta, lekin maine pehle Honda City 15 years tk rakhi hai, aur ab Elevate bhi 10 years tk zrur rakhunga, isi soch k sath khareedi thi. To mujhe lagta hai apko Elevate leni chahiye. Baaki, features aap zrur compare kr lena aur apne budet k hisab se price bhi check kr lena dono cars k, bcoz mujhe inke latest prices nahi pta hain. Best wishes.
Idol start mai vibration and engine sound feel hone laga hai meri car mai...aap ne bhi kuch aisa feel Kiya Hai?
Bilkul bhi nahi, idol start mein to negligible sound rehti hai, aur na hi koi vibration feel hoti hai.
Have concern about CVT for its low end torque in hills and also compare to Torque converter which is considered as the best automatic transmission in terms of pickup and durability ..
I am confused Elevate with bXUV 3XO which offers u Torque converter and pappy engine ..
I am ok with XUV 3XO space .
Price wise elevate VX and XUV’s AX5 are almost similar..
Please guide ..
Somehow I missed your comment and was not able to reply earlier.
All 3 cars that you are comparing are of different segment, your confusion will never end if you will try to choose between 3 different segments. First of all, you must shortlist your requirements, then the size of vehicle you want to buy, of course the budget that you can fix, and then decide wisely where to spend your hard-earned money :)
I have driven my Elevate CVT in hills too, I didn't feel any issue with its power there, it serves the purpose very well. If you prefer a car with more torque and peppy engine, go for your choise of 3XO, and if you want a bigger vehicle with more space and better road presence, you can go for the other options. All the cars have something more or less than the other cars, so eventually, whichever car you will buy, I am sure it will fulfil most of your requirements, it just comes down to making up your mind and choosing one out of many :)

2 important myths to be busted/ discussed ....cabin noise & authentic mileage in city & highway?
I test drove. There is good noise inside. Check yourself if you are serious
Recently i drove 600km(50-60 km in city with nomral traffic) in 2 days and I got 16.8 kmpl with ac
Hi. I have already shared videos on both these topics in detail, that's why i didn't touch these topics in this video.
For cabin noise, check this video here:
ua-cam.com/video/WFKUnYIedHI/v-deo.htmlsi=4pHVzK5cqbubOSWw
For mileage in city and highway, check this video here:
ua-cam.com/video/_896obenKYc/v-deo.htmlsi=f8_B4tpAKUMm2-Yi
Consider these videos totally authentic as these are based on real life ownership experience of Honda Elevate. Moreover, both the videos have sufficient proofs about whatever is being discussed.
@@mubaraksandhu , I suggest you try the XP-95 petrol from India Oil. I use the same regularly now and am getting 17+ mileage consistently with AC on Highways. Also the pick up and engine refinement gets improved with XP-95. (note I have ZX CVT variant)
Hello sir: Is there any rubber band effect in this cvt variant?
Hi. I haven't felt the rubber band effect at all. I would suggest you to test drive and clear your doubt yourself also, so that no confusion is left on this topic :)
Not at all !! I was also thinking the same before test drive … but post test drive next day I booked the car and got the delivery within a week …
@@shripadamate240 Hope you are enjoying the Elevate. Do get the infotainment software update from dealership if not done yet :)
ELEVATE is based on CITY but does not offer same Rear Seat width & Comfort.
At the same time ELEVATE does not offer WOW factor nor offer the same variant Feature list as CITY. At the same time NVH levels are high when compared to CITY. Elevate offers poor efficiency than City.
Than why should you buy it against CITY. And the same time Showroom Sales Rep. also wants to sell CITY over ELEVATE.
It fails miserably against Competition offerings as far as Engine Options are concern.
It seems Honda is offering Stepmotherly treatment to ELEVATE against CITY. That's the reason why they are not offering TPMS & Ventilated Front Seats.. આ major miss in it's class
HONDA has lost its overall credibility as Brand in India.
Virtus has out scored City by offering better Ground clearance & Turbo engine options.
Thanks for info.. horn sach me bda hi fuddu h.. I too have vx cvt..
Bhaie aap naino pr rho
I agree that the 'assumption' that NCAP ratings will be 5 star should not be made. Let the actual tests be done and we'll all know.
However, I believe it is injustice to assess built quality on the basis of fit and finishing and interior plastic quality. Also, looking at the interiors, I believe you're talking about VX where yes, Honda has compromised on plastics quality a bit. In ZX, the panel gaps and interior plastic-fabric quality are really good and gives you an up-market feel and confidence.
Interior quality is being discussed to highlight the compromises, like the plastic quality, which is same in ZX variant also. I am fully satisfied with seats and many other interiors and features even in VX, but that feel of compromise comes up at times.
Build quality, specially panel gaps, are totally same in VX and ZX variants. Fit and finish of windows is also same across both these variants. The chassis and measurements of doors/boot/bonnet etc do not change at all, they are exactly the same across variants, changes are made on features and add-ons other than these basic structural parameters which build the fundamental structure of car, which is same in all variants. I am still happy and satisfied with Honda Elevate, it is an amazing product in this price. And because the prices have already increased, it becomes an even better product for customers like us who purchased at lesser price last year :)
@@mubaraksandhu Oh yes. I agree with you that compromises have been made on fit and finish and plastic quality. Just that structural integrity of chassis can be asserted only after crash test because it depends on the chassis skeleton. Anyway, on your last point on price, I booked ZX CVT last year and I'm expecting to receive it in May (I asked for May specifically). So, can you please tell me whether I'll be charged higher price or the price at which I booked? I'm very excited to finally get my hands on it.
@@zattwik You will be charged the current price now. When i purchased, the Honda representative informed me that whenever we take the delivery of car, the rates at the time of delivery apply to us and not the rates that were there at the time of booking.
Honda is waiting for NCAP testing to successfully launch elevate in all anticipated Countries then they will test crashing 😅
Honda is playing smart with marketing here, using the NCAP rating of City as reference for Elevate 😀
@@mubaraksandhuto improve sales everybody are following maruti/hyundai -poor build quality
Take it toyota -started selling maruti cars by re-badging
Vw/skoda 2.0 vehicle less quality than their discontinued products
Honda has degraded their body parts to lower quality ones(cost cutting)
Tata is the one which benefitted immensely by giving strong build quality and marketing it very well . Remember nexon was the first 5 star rated car! Then Mahindra started marketing xuv300 .
Tata and Mahindra managed with their marketing to cut down marutis market share !!
Honda/toyota could have easily done that .i feel Honda and toyota doesn’t deserve to be in India
Elevate sales getting down therefore they installed 6 airbags as a standard. Koreans cars have 6 air bag standard their sales is sky rocking.
I am owner of Elevate but not happy with the Elevate.
In coming months it's sales will not be increasing.
Questions honda should answer:
1) why stupid camera based ADAS, Indians are not stupid. Its just a gimmick and useless on Indian roads.
2) Why so much nvh when you compare it to the city?
3) Why no simple cruise system? Just simply let driver control the steering and brakes.
4) Also why not flat bedded the rear seat, why give a bumpy raised seat in mid. Especially when you selling it to India.
And poor track record of Honda with their varient launches and discontinuing them.
They just focus more on selling bikes and activa.
1) That's why i opted for VX variant :)
2) Yes, NVH is higher as compared, but somehow it is not a deal breaker because it is not that much!
3) Again, that's why i opted for VX variant :) Saved money by not going for such features :)
4) Yes, flat seat is definitely far more comfortable than the raised seat.
Honda Elevate is doing fine till now after one year of its launch. For the time being, it seems that Honda won't discontinue Elevate, it is not that bad in performance and sales. But yes, some issues are definitely there which must be addressed.
I have already made videos of many more issues than mentioned by you here, but thanks for writing and sharing your points👍
