The Japanese automotive giant, after being quiet for a long time, has finally unveiled its newest mid-size SUV, the Elevate, in India. This all-new SUV will go head-to-head with segment champions such as the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, and many others. While the company is yet to launch the Elevate in India and real-life driving of this SUV is yet to happen, the company recently shared its new TVC featuring the SUV being tested in real-life situations, along with discussions about its design and engineering.
The video of the Honda Elevate in action has been shared on Honda Cars India’s YouTube channel. The video begins with the background story of how the Honda Elevate came to be. It reveals that although the Honda Elevate is a global model, it has been designed with India in mind. It states that the car has been carefully engineered to suit the preferences of both young and old Indian buyers. It further adds that the idea for the Elevate was incubated during the pandemic, driven by the need for freedom.
