Honda Cars India has launched the Elevate ADV Edition, a more rugged and stylish take on its popular compact SUV. Priced at ₹15.29 lakh (ex-showroom), this new variant adds a dose of adventure-inspired design and feature upgrades, making the Elevate even more appealing for buyers seeking a youthful yet premium SUV.
What’s New in the Elevate ADV Edition?
The Honda Elevate ADV Edition builds upon the ZX CVT variant, which is the top trim in the standard lineup. As its name suggests, this version takes design inspiration from adventure SUVs, with several cosmetic enhancements that set it apart from the regular model.
The most striking change is the bold orange accents — prominently featured on the front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and roof rails. These vibrant highlights give the Elevate a sporty, eye-catching look, perfectly complementing its already muscular stance.
In addition to the orange inserts, Honda has also added:
- Front skid plate and bumper garnish for a tougher appeal
- Door visors, tailgate spoiler, and roof rails
- ADV Edition body graphics
- Puddle lamps for added convenience
- Black ORVMs and alloy wheels, providing a contrast to the bright highlights
These updates together give the Elevate ADV Edition a distinctive, adventure-ready appearance that will surely attract attention on the road.
Interior and Features
Step inside, and the cabin continues the sporty, adventurous theme. The dual-tone black-and-orange interior gives the SUV a fresh and youthful energy. Orange stitching runs across the seats and soft-touch surfaces, elevating the cabin’s premium appeal.
The ADV Edition retains all the features from the top-spec ZX variant, including:
- 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay
- 7-inch TFT digital instrument cluster
- Wireless phone charger
- Automatic climate control
- Leatherette seat upholstery
- Honda Sensing ADAS suite, featuring collision mitigation braking, lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and road departure mitigation
These ensure that even with its adventure-focused look, the Elevate ADV Edition doesn’t compromise on comfort, safety, or technology.
Powertrain and Performance
Under the hood, the Elevate ADV Edition continues with the reliable 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine, which produces 121PS and 145Nm of torque. It’s paired with a CVT automatic gearbox in this variant.
There are no mechanical changes, meaning it retains the Elevate’s refined driving dynamics and smooth performance. The CVT ensures seamless shifts, while the i-VTEC engine continues to deliver Honda’s signature balance of power and efficiency — ideal for both city commutes and long highway drives.
Price and Availability
The Honda Elevate ADV Edition is priced at ₹15.29 lakh (ex-showroom) and is available across Honda dealerships in India. It’s offered in multiple colour options, including Phoenix Orange, Platinum White Pearl, Radiant Red Metallic, Obsidian Blue Pearl, and Meteoroid Gray Metallic — all enhanced with the ADV Edition’s signature orange detailing.
Honda’s decision to introduce the ADV Edition is aimed at keeping the Elevate fresh and competitive in the crowded midsize SUV segment, where it rivals models like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder.
Final Thoughts
The Honda Elevate ADV Edition adds a refreshing visual twist to one of India’s most balanced compact SUVs. With its orange accents, rugged styling, and feature-loaded cabin, this edition injects new life into the Elevate lineup without changing its proven mechanicals.
For those who love the reliability and comfort of the standard Elevate but want something that stands out visually, the ADV Edition is the perfect fit.
