Honda Elevate Mileage

Very low mileage, poor customer support after sales, recently I have purchased Honda elevate I got only less than 8.5 kilometers mileage per liter overall , I have expected overall at least 12 kilometer per litre.

M/sPeninsular Honda, Trivandrum was quite tempting as their salesman let the car speak first and then started the build up. Very efficient salesman. The driving experience was what that hooked me to the car. Here was one that outruns anything on wheels. A ghostly silent start and becoming kinetic without effort. The gear shifts are flawless as its cvt gearbox relays the raw power of 1.5 l ivtec petrol engine. The suspension system holds the car up in steady position until an odd gutter gives a murmur to slow down. Very premium feel to handle the car while piloting it from the high perch. Yes a commanding drive as the car responds without hesitation. It has an Almost 180degree visibility as you sit way higher than other cars and get an uncluttered view through the wide windscreen, Pros are the muscular engine that delivers about 120HP and the seamless mating with cvt gear box. The17 inch wheels sail over most gutters without wiggles .The hight and commanding view from driving seat has very few rivals. The ambience is s spacious and relaxing. The cons are serious enough to mar the appeal of the car. The worst part is engine and tire noise getting inside the car due to inefficient sound insulation. At higher speeds the sound is quite infuriating. Pl do rectify this in all the 3200odd cars sold so far. There should be disc brake on all the four wheels as smoothness ABS is reduced by the rear drums. The highway mileage is only 14 km/l while the claim is 16kpl. I have already asked my garage to report this and seek advice. I put seat covers as the upholstery was not to my liking. Lastly the running gear should be displayed instead of “D”. In short a very good car that could have been great.

Great buying experience. Driving couldn't have been better - have driven Seltos, Creta and Hyryder but liked the elevated experience of Honda. Executive styling and highway mileage of 16-17 km/l. This is great!!

Best driving experience, good road presence good mileage, very good staff of Honda and very good service and low maintenance. But low ride comfort and back seat low comfort. All things are good.
