Honda Elevate facelift in Crystal Black Pearl

The Honda Elevate specifications rest on one petrol engine shared across the whole range. It is a 1.5 litre i-VTEC unit of 1498 cc, making 121 PS at 6600 rpm. Torque is 145 Nm at 4300 rpm, enough for easy town and highway work.

You pick between two gearboxes, a six speed manual and a 7-speed CVT automatic. The CVT suits buyers who spend most of their time in city traffic, while the manual keeps the price down.

On fuel the manual is rated at 15.31 kmpl and the CVT at 16.61 kmpl. Those are fair figures for a petrol SUV of this size and weight. The engine is also E20 compliant, so it runs on the newer ethanol-blended petrol without any change.

The dimensions favour space and rough-road ability. At 4312 mm long the Elevate stays easy to park, yet it holds a 458 litre boot. Ground clearance is a high 220 mm, and the 40 litre tank gives a useful touring range. Five adults sit in comfort. For the running-cost side, check the Elevate mileage by gearbox.

Safety and feature kit build sharply through the grades. The ZX adds Honda Sensing driver aids and ventilated front seats, and the ZX+ tops it with a 360 degree camera and power front seats. Read the sheet as a whole and the facelifted Elevate comes across as a practical SUV that now wants for very little at the top.

Honda Elevate Facelift power and torque explained

The Elevate gives you one engine, a 1.5 litre i-VTEC petrol with 121 PS. What changes is the gearbox. You can have a six speed manual or a CVT automatic, so your choice is really about how you like to drive, not how much power you get.

By nature it is a smooth petrol that prefers revs to low down grunt. Around town it stays calm and easy to drive, so it never feels highly strung in stop and go traffic.

How to read this chart. Torque is the push you feel when you accelerate, and it peaks low on the rev range. Power is how hard the engine keeps pulling as it revs higher, and it peaks further up. The two dots mark those peaks. The shaded strip between them is the flexibility band: a wider band pulls easily across more revs and feels relaxed in traffic, while a narrower band asks you to rev the engine more to get its best.

Peak figures come from the 1.5L i-VTEC Petrol spec sheet. The line between the two peaks is not a measured dyno curve.

The 1.5 i-VTEC makes its peak 145 Nm of torque at 4300 rpm, and the full 121 PS lands high at 6600 rpm, 2300 rpm further up. So the strongest pull sits in the upper half of the rev range, and there is little low down shove. For a confident highway overtake, drop a gear and let it climb, because that is where it feels keenest. A full load of passengers up a long climb will ask for more revs too. If your days are mostly city traffic, the CVT keeps things effortless, while the six speed manual rewards you if you enjoy holding a gear. It helps to compare how the trims and both gearboxes stack up before you decide. Once a grade fits, it is worth checking what it comes to on the road in your city before booking.
