Honda Elevate review

Honda nailed it with the pricing! Finally! This car is value for money considering other manufacturers! Buying experience: should be good Looks and performance: looks high class, looks like its global models abroad. Performance for a natural aspirated model is quite good. Mileage is good too. Pros: looks, build quality, engine, price Cons: few features like ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof is missing.

This is amazing car

I don’t have this car but it is my dream car I don’t have enough money to buy this car I really like this car when I purchased this car I will drive with my mom and brother because we purchased a first car.
