Honda has started testing the Elevate facelift in India. A heavily camouflaged test mule was recently spotted on public roads, suggesting an update to the compact SUV may be on the cards in the coming months.
The overall shape of the SUV looks similar to the current model, though the camouflage hides most design changes.
The front is expected to get a fresh grille design, new lighting elements, and an updated bumper. On the side, new alloy wheels are likely to be the only major update. At the back, revised LED taillight graphics are visible in the spy shots. Expect a new rear bumper design as well.

Inside the cabin, the facelift may bring new upholstery, fresh trim finishes and some feature upgrades. Many expect a larger touchscreen, better connectivity, and possibly more widespread availability of the Honda Sensing ADAS suite.
The engine setup is likely to stay the same. The Elevate will continue with the 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine producing 121 hp, offered with a 6-speed manual or CVT automatic.
With many segment rivals offering/preparing to introduce a hybrid powertrain, Honda could do the same, but there is no confirmation yet.
A launch is expected later this year or by early 2027.
