In the segment, the car will take on rivals such as Creta (Hyundai), Grand Vitara (Maruti Suzuki), Seltos (Kia), and more.
The global unveiling of Elevate, Honda's upcoming compact SUV, will take place early next month, the Japanese auto giant confirmed on Monday, and promised ‘something exciting’ for prospective customers.
“Witness the #WorldPremiere of the most awaited SUV, the all-new Honda Elevate on June 06, 2023. Mark your calendar for the big unveil!” it said in a tweet, dropping a teaser image with the post.

Replying to at least two comments below the post, Honda also teased ‘something exciting to share with you all very soon.’
This segment is really competitive now and I will be really interested if it’ll cost in between 11 to 18 lakh on road, looking forward to own my first four wheeler and none better than to start with HONDA ELEVATE. My first 2 wheeler was also from Honda which was Honda CBR 150R.

This is going to be a game changer for Honda Cars India. The exterior looks just amazing. Can't wait to drive it first hand. Can I get a test drive?

The teaser image, however, made it clear that the company will not offer a panoramic sunroof with the model, and in the comments section, people did not hide their disappointment.

Honda is likely to offer Elevate with the same 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine that powers the carmaker's new-generation City. The engine generates maximum power output of 120 bhp in the new-generation City.
Once launched later in the year, the SUV will take on rivals such as Creta (Hyundai), Grand Vitara (Maruti Suzuki), Seltos (Kia), and more. Also, it is Honda's first SUV for the Indian market since it discontinued models such as the CR-V and WR-V.
