Moving on to the inside, the SUV is expected to get a 10-inch infotainment system with a semi-digital instrument cluster. Other expected features include a panoramic sunroof, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, wireless charging, ventilated front seats, automatic climate control, electric seats for the driver, 360-degree camera, engine start/stop button, connected car tech, PM 2.5 air filter and many more.

Talking about the powertrain, the Elevate is expected to be powered by a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder, NA petrol engine which puts out 121 PS of power and 145 Nm of torque. Gearbox options will include a 6-speed manual and a CVT Automatic. There will be no diesel engine on offer. However, at a later date, Honda might introduce a strong hybrid variant
