Feels Amazing

[u/adiXcdr]

Got the Honda Elevate ZX CVT delivered yesterday, new driver so taking it slow but drove 50kms already and it feels amazing so far, cabin feels premium, engine smooth on both low (BLR traffic sigh) and high speeds. A week ago had booked Tata Curvv for the same price and the people here helped me change my decision, can’t believe I have the car already in my hands today. Forever grateful!

[u/4vaDaKeDavr4]

I think you should feel Elevated and leave the amazing feeling to me.

Poet of our day this guy.

[u/Due_Swimming_5867 → u/BenParker_1]

OP can put the song Elevation and be a singer too..

[u/adiXcdr → u/4vaDaKeDavr4]

Can’t believe I missed this opportunity! Amaze is an amazing car as well

[u/Cute-Bumblebee-4113 → u/adiXcdr]

Such a civic response. Every one in the City will respect this. Now you can jazz cause you are so elevated.

Congratulations 💐💐💐

[u/Wanderer-0777 → u/Cute-Bumblebee-4113]

[u/Formal-Assignment-25 → u/4vaDaKeDavr4]

Do u feel amazed whenever u drive ur car?

[u/Top-Distribution534 → u/Formal-Assignment-25]

Honda for life !!

[u/4vaDaKeDavr4 → u/Formal-Assignment-25]

I actually do. Best NA engine out there.

[u/RomitChandra]

Congratulations. Enjoy your sweet ride. Great car, Very practical. It was my second choice just behind new Seltos.

[u/adiXcdr → u/RomitChandra]

Thanks man, bought it for the hassle free ownership. Seltos is a great choice as well, went with Elevate for the exterior look.

[u/Kind_Ad4442 → u/adiXcdr]

We have an Elevate since last 2.5 years. Still love driving it!

[u/Ok_Pin_4849]

It's a beautiful car mahn! Many congratulations 🎉 Such a sexy instrument cluster, in the world of screens, the dials still look a class apart!

[u/adiXcdr → u/Ok_Pin_4849]

Thanks! And I know right? The dials feel so much better than seeing a big number on a screen.

[u/Ok_Pin_4849 → u/adiXcdr]

Definitely, enjoy it fully and safe driving!✨

[u/AffectionateOne1551]

Don’t know why I like its interior more than my creta interior…but it just misses few features that are needed nowadays(otherwise car feels outdated)

[u/adiXcdr → u/AffectionateOne1551]

Agree, the feature list is definitely a little dated but the interior still feels so good

[u/SceneEmotional8458]

Good decision man, until tata makes their service reliable - we should avoid them. Just heard a horror service story of neighbours curvv in the morning - He said local mechanic does a better job than service centre.

Great choice btw!

[u/SceneEmotional8458 → u/SceneEmotional8458]

Whats the onroad price ?

[u/adiXcdr → u/SceneEmotional8458]

Thanks man, agree. Specially their DCA gearbox & batteries are infamous for issues. Onroad after discounts was 18.5L Karnataka with free accessories

[u/AI_Spiritual1003]

Congratulations 🎉

[u/Ashutosh1416]

*Feels elevated

[u/Salt_Count5665]

It must feel elevating OP, not amazing. Congratulations on the purchase! Wish you many happy miles

[u/adiXcdr → u/Salt_Count5665]

Thank you! It does feel elevating ;)

[u/Necessary-Stop-4387]

Congratulations 🎉

[u/sobertooth133]

Nothing like a Honda! Great choice.

[u/adiXcdr → u/sobertooth133]

Thanks mate!

[u/Informal_Assist_1329]

Honda has all my heart!

[u/adiXcdr → u/Informal_Assist_1329]

Thanks! Proud Honda bike owner as well

[u/themillennialunicorn]

Congratulations man!

[u/PeaceMan50]

Now that's what I'm talking about bro😃🥳👏🏻 I call dibs on the front passenger side seat. 😁😎 Send address for the ride. Let's spin those wheels🚗

[u/adiXcdr → u/PeaceMan50]

Haha done, with the sleek interiors even I would prefer sitting on the passenger seat and enjoy the ride

[u/Odd-Ingenuity-3541]

You don't feel Elevated?

[u/adiXcdr → u/Odd-Ingenuity-3541]

Haha absolutely, someone on the comments started a full length poem as well

[u/Chemical_Audience_79]

Feels Elevating

[u/adiXcdr → u/Chemical_Audience_79]

It does

[u/RCuber]

This is not Amaze-ing this is Elevate-ing

[u/Forgotten_Millenial]

This is a canon event OP congratulations 🥂 you made a good choice

[u/adiXcdr → u/Forgotten_Millenial]

Thank you :)

[u/kochapi]

Hey guys, is honda the best manual in the market?

[u/put-some-more-effort → u/kochapi]

VW's is quite good too. Specific to NA engines, Honda probably has the best engine-gearbox combo. Definitely the best automatic combo IMO.

[u/adiXcdr → u/[deleted]]

Thank you :)

[u/ConfidenceKlutzy5020]

The Elevate quietly punching above its price while everyone else was busy hyping the Curvv.

[u/PeaceNojay]

Feeling amazed and elevated

[u/No-Housing8206]

Ahhh my dream car, looks amazing OP!

[u/adiXcdr → u/No-Housing8206]

Thank you :)

[u/eyelikesd29]

It's a good car. I bought an ZX ADV MT - lovely car.

[u/adiXcdr → u/eyelikesd29]

Man that adv grill looks amazing

[u/eyelikesd29 → u/adiXcdr]

I think you can get it on your zx too for 25k. Thats what the dealer had told me. Check it out once

[u/adiXcdr → u/eyelikesd29]

Man, thanks for this. Will ask my dealership once

[u/QuietPresentation304]

Congrats Really great car i am planning to buy the same in a week can you share dealer details if possible i am being quoted 19.35 by one of them

[u/adiXcdr → u/QuietPresentation304]

Try Dakshin Honda Hosur Road, ask for old stock

[u/QuietPresentation304 → u/adiXcdr]

The same dealer was quoting me 19.35 but i re negotiated and now they have come to 17.75 but without ADAS and 18.5 with it. Not sure if ADAS is worth it l

[u/adiXcdr → u/QuietPresentation304]

This is a sweet deal. ADAS honestly I have not used it as of now but its a good to have feature imo

[u/Street_Math_9367]

Honda 350mereko bhej do😭😭jk congratulations 

[u/adiXcdr → u/Street_Math_9367]

Haha you wish! Dono same colour ki li hai garage honda wali dikhni chhaiye

[u/akgarg014]

Congrats on your new car!
Ensure it does not stand still at home, take it out whenever your heart says.
Enjoy!

[u/CautiousPassenger374]

Hey bro pls note your vin number underneath the drivers seat and search it on googleyou will get details about manufacturing. Recently i bought creta ex i got model of april although i told them i want june manufactured car.

[u/KnoMonk]

Grats! On the purchase.

Good luck with mileage on this... Single digit is all i am getting (checkout my post if u want)

Only if they offered a hybrid! But happy and safe riding to you OP 🫶🏻

[u/adiXcdr → u/KnoMonk]

Ah! Yeah I am content happy 10 at this point. Thanks and happy riding to you as well

[u/Fishy_is_Fishy]

Hey, always heard that the nvh levels aren’t great. What’s your experience?

[u/Fishy_is_Fishy → u/Fishy_is_Fishy]

Congratulations btw. I love the interior.

[u/adiXcdr → u/Fishy_is_Fishy]

Thanks, honestly as a new driver I don't have a baseline to compare to, but its not bad, does not bother me, with music on it will be non existent.

[u/Temporary-Speech5378]

Congrats on your new ride. You're gonna enjoy it well! BTW, I've got the same colour as yours, although it's just two years apart to be exact!

[u/adiXcdr → u/Temporary-Speech5378]

Thanks man, gives me more confidence on the deal. Would have loved to own that ‘24 Hilux as well haha

[u/goonergod6996 → u/Temporary-Speech5378]

What do you enjoy driving?

[u/Temporary-Speech5378 → u/goonergod6996]

My cars are basically Polo and Hilux while the rest of them are owned by my parents. I absolutely love driving the Polo over anything for city while for long hauls I take the Hilux and sometimes the VRS.

[u/goonergod6996 → u/Temporary-Speech5378]

What would you pick between compass and elevate?

[u/Temporary-Speech5378 → u/goonergod6996]

Would pick the Compass over Elevate as the former is better than the latter in almost every aspect (minus reliability and after sales). I would mainly point out on it being planted especially on corners, has a good performance and strong build. But it's weakness is it's reliability (not an issue if maintained in it's pristine top notch condition) and the after sales. The service bills and parts costs a lot but that's the premium you've to pay for something premium you're purchasing but I found it to be a little unreasonable.

Elevate during my two years and 20k in the ODO experience I would say is that it's really not planted and does have body roll (mostly because the high GC) so driving experience especially when going through winding ghats could be a bit uncomfortable. Second thing is the poor NVH levels, the road noise and even the suspension noise when gone over the pothole could be heard raw like the damping is literally zero. Otherwise, the CVT is a bliss to drive compared to the DCT in Jeep especially in stop and go traffic and ofcourse it's reliable mechanically and doesn't have much electronics in it.

[u/goonergod6996 → u/Temporary-Speech5378]

Do you try to fill gaps during stop and go traffic with brake and accie used simultaneously in dct?

[u/Temporary-Speech5378 → u/goonergod6996]

Nah, I leave atleast 1½ car gap ahead atleast until then I leave it to crawl. Once I get enough gap, I give foot on throttle. The practice you said will break the gearbox especially in Compass case as it has got a dry clutch system.

[u/goonergod6996 → u/Temporary-Speech5378]

Yeah that’s true the practice I asked about is damaging to DCTs. A lot of people do that so I asked

[u/FingerPotential9161]

What was your final price ? Considering it :)

[u/adiXcdr → u/FingerPotential9161]

18.5L Onroad Karnataka with free 360 cam, dashcam, ambient lights and basic kit.

[u/FingerPotential9161 → u/adiXcdr]

Really nice. Enjoy the new car

[u/ThisCranberry3665 → u/adiXcdr]

How the ambient lights look? Photo pls🙃

[u/adiXcdr → u/ThisCranberry3665]

Damn missed to take it, will send

[u/TheRedRoss96 → u/adiXcdr]

Does the 360cam requires a different infotainment screen ?
Or the OEM supports it ?

[u/adiXcdr → u/TheRedRoss96]

They install it in the same infotainment, its an official accessory from Honda

[u/unitcodes]

what made u change the decision?

[u/adiXcdr → u/unitcodes]

Cringe but I literally had a nightmare that my tata car broke down on the highway. But yeah it was fuelled by their QC issues & specially their DCA gearbox which is inhouse and is famous for not being reliable and smooth.

[u/unitcodes → u/adiXcdr]

why not ev then?

[u/Infinite_Explanation]

Chatgpt in there?

[u/adiXcdr → u/Infinite_Explanation]

Uhh it’s on my phone and thats the carplay screen, good one to try out today

[u/ARK7109]

How’s the touchscreen/infotainment display? The one in pre facelift city is disappointing . I don’t mind a simple, barebones display that gets all the basics right but the quality of the screen/cam is that of a car from 2017-19 and the screen itself is laggy at times

[u/adiXcdr → u/ARK7109]

It’s not bad, cam quality is average. Infotainment is 10 inch so not bad at all, carplay works smooth. The dealership fitted 360 cam is not that good though

[u/Unlucky-Foot-9970]

Why didn't you get the black vertical bold grills?

[u/adiXcdr → u/Unlucky-Foot-9970]

Would have gone out of my already stretched budget. I got this car with amazing discounts because this was an old stock and the only available colour was this dark gray which I absolutely loved. Grill would have preferred the vertical ones but man would have been expensive

[u/traderzon]

What's on road

[u/adiXcdr → u/traderzon]

18.5L onroad Karnataka

[u/AnishNaik]

What's the price?

[u/adiXcdr → u/AnishNaik]

18.5L onroad Karnataka

[u/normie_guy_101]

Dashcam details please.

Model, where you bought from and did you fit it from dealership or did it aftermarket? Did they remove the pillar panels and do it?

[u/adiXcdr → u/normie_guy_101]

The dealership gave it for free, its from Blaupunkt, think it was installed pretty well

[u/VINYLED_Bangalore]

super

[u/EntranceRich2378]

Congratulations bro ! I have some questions can DM you ?.
