Honda Cars India has officially teased the updated Elevate SUV ahead of its launch and price announcement on October 6, 2026. The facelift brings noticeable styling revisions along with several expected feature upgrades as Honda looks to strengthen its offering in the competitive midsize SUV segment in India. Pre-booking for the updated SUV has also opened at the authorised Honda dealerships for ₹21,000. India will be the first market globally to receive the refreshed Elevate.
New Exterior Design Takes Centre Stage
The teaser reveals major changes to the front profile of the Honda Elevate facelift. The SUV gets a redesigned grille and a segmented LED light ned across the upper fascia. The Honda logo has also been repositioned towards the edge of the bonnet. At the rear, twin connected LED tail lamps are expected to give the SUV a more modern look. Revised bumpers and new alloy wheel designs are also expected.
Updated Cabin With More Features
Honda is also expected to make subtle changes inside the cabin. The teaser showcases a tweaked dashboard design and the addition of ambient lighting. The facelift could also bring features such as ventilated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control and a 360-degree camera, depending on the variant. These additions would address some of the equipment gaps in the current Elevate.
Same Petrol Engine Expected
The mechanical package is expected to remain largely unchanged. The Elevate facelift is likely to continue with the existing 1.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder i-VTEC petrol engine, paired with either a six-speed manual or CVT automatic transmission. The engine currently produces around 121 PS and 145 Nm.
Prices To Be Revealed On October 6
Honda will officially reveal the facelifted Elevate and announce its prices on October 6. With refreshed styling, additional equipment and a more premium cabin, the updated SUV is expected to continue competing in the midsize SUV segment alongside models such as the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara
