The Honda Elevate has crossed the 1 lakh sales mark. It is important to note that the Tata Curvv and Hyundai Creta crossed this mark at the end of January 2025, meaning Honda has arrived late to the party. Let’s understand what this means for the Japanese SUV.

Honda has managed to sell 53,326 units of the Elevate in India and exported 47,653 units to countries like Japan, Nepal, South Africa and Bhutan. The statistics suggest that Elevate accounts for 79% of Honda’s sales. The most common buying group which is a household having 2 cars, accounts for 43% of Elevate’s sales.

The Elevate is sold in four variants: SV, V, VX and ZX variant, priced between Rs. 11.91 lakhs to Rs. 16.73 lakhs (ex-showroom). The latter is the most preferred variant in the lineup equipped with ADAS accounting for 53% of the sales, generally with the CVT Transmission option. The CVT Variant is available in the variants above the SV Variant, is the base model.

Honda Elevate Increased Export Growth
The average monthly sales of the Elevate were just 2000 units between the April 2024 to January 2025 period. However, the exports have seen a rapid rise as they were nearly double the Indian Sales figure in Q1 of FY25. Honda started selling the Elevate internationally in 2023 and in markets like Japan, it is known as the Honda WR-V.
Honda reported 65% growth in FY2024 and over 92% growth in FY2025 of the Elevate, a sizeable figure. With this, Honda can contribute to the nation’s economy as well.
Outlook
Honda has also launched the Elevate Black Edition catering to the audience wanting a sportier feel. In addition to confirming all of its cars i.e. Amaze and City being E20 Compliant, the Japanese manufacturer seems poised to take on the most popular segment in India.
