I checked out the car in a showroom & although I didn’t want to talk about the omitted features, I will make two exceptions.
BHPian pannags recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
Visited Magnum Honda, RMV, Bangalore, to have a first look at the Elevate. Opted for the morning slot (9-10 am) to avoid crowds. Surprisingly, we were the only ones at the showroom.
The displayed variant was the top-end manual in Red, and perhaps one of the cars employed for media test drives. The dealership had not taken an effort to clean the car thoroughly, resulting in fingerprint marks on the handles and interiors. A somewhat disappointing experience considering it’s a newly launched car on exhibit.
My observations are the following. I’ll skip what has been already discussed extensively (missing features, variants, reasonable pricing etc.).
I did not want to talk about omitted features, but will make two exceptions.
The three-point seat belt and a front parking camera are necessities conspicuous by their absence. While the latter can be easily added as an accessory, Honda seems to have cut a corner too much with a lap belt-only arrangement for the rear middle passenger.
