Honda Cars India has launched the 2026 Elevate facelift in India, giving its popular mid-size SUV a refreshed design, a more premium cabin, and a longer list of features. Prices start at Rs. 11.80 lakh (ex-showroom), while the updated model is available in six variants and a wider range of exterior colour options. India is also the first market globally to receive the new Elevate.
The 2026 Honda Elevate is offered in SV, V, VX, ZX, ZX Plus and ZX Plus Black variants. The new ZX Plus sits at the top of the regular range, while the ZX Plus Black is positioned as a distinctive black-themed version. The addition of these variants gives buyers more choice, particularly at the premium end of the lineup.
2026 Honda Elevate Colour Options
Honda has expanded the Elevate’s colour palette with the introduction of Nordic Forest Pearl. The SUV is available in seven single-tone shades: Platinum White Pearl, Lunar Silver Metallic, Meteoroid Gray Metallic, Radiant Red Metallic, Obsidian Blue Pearl, Crystal Black Pearl and Nordic Forest Pearl.
Three dual-tone combinations are also available, featuring a Crystal Black Pearl roof. These include Platinum White Pearl with a black roof, Radiant Red Metallic with a black roof, and the new Nordic Forest Pearl with a black roof.
However, colour availability varies by variant. The base SV is restricted to four colours: Platinum White Pearl, Lunar Silver Metallic, Meteoroid Gray Metallic and Crystal Black Pearl. The V, VX and ZX variants offer the wider seven-colour selection, while the ZX Plus gets access to the dual-tone options. The ZX Plus Black is offered exclusively in Crystal Black Pearl.
More Features, Same Petrol Engine
The facelift brings substantial equipment upgrades without changing the mechanical package. The Elevate continues with Honda’s 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine, paired with a six-speed manual or CVT automatic transmission.
Feature highlights include front and rear ventilated seats, a 360-degree surround-view camera, powered front seats, wireless charging, USB-C ports, an electric parking brake and updated Honda Sensing ADAS technology with Low-Speed Follow. The exterior also gets a redesigned grille, tri-bar LED position lights, connected LED tail lamps and revised alloy wheels.
With the facelift, Honda has focused on addressing several feature gaps while retaining the Elevate’s familiar petrol powertrain and practical SUV character. The combination of new variants, additional equipment and fresh colour choices could help the model remain competitive against rivals such as the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara and Toyota Hyryder.
