Kicking off the year 2025 in style, Honda is enhancing the allure of its Elevate SUV by introducing a Black Edition. On January 10th, 2025, Honda unveiled the Elevate Black Edition and the Signature Black Edition. Notably, units had begun to arrive at dealerships ahead of the official launch. Let's explore all the exciting features of Elevate’s sleek new look.

Honda Elevate Black Series Launch

Elevate SUV was the most important launch for Honda Cars India Ltd post BS6 emission norms implementation. It established Honda as an SUV manufacturer again, operating in the highly lucrative compact SUV space. Now, the company has launched a Black Edition and Signature Black Edition of Elevate for that stealth look.

Honda's introduction of special editions featuring darker hues is a positive step, especially considering their success in the compact and sub-4m SUV markets. These models offer a sleek, stealthy aesthetic and an air of refined sophistication. Additionally, this strategy is likely to enhance Honda's sales, as the compact SUV segment has expanded to include up to 11 competitors.

As seen in the images, Honda Elevate Black Series looks stunning and stealthy in the new Crystal Black Pearl colour. Black Edition is a strictly cosmetic update and gets no mechanical changes. Also, there are no additional features with Elevate Black Edition, unlike a few rivals with special editions.

The exterior features notable updates, such as a stunning glossy Black hue and body-matched door handles that lack chrome accents. The 17-inch alloy wheels on the Black Edition sport a sleek Black finish. While the standard Elevate comes with body-coloured side cladding, the Black Edition showcases a striking Silver finish for added contrast and flair.

Under the bonnet, we still get the same 1.5L 4-cylinder NA Petrol i-VTEC engine that is capable of generating 119 bhp of peak power and 145 Nm of peak torque. This engine is mated to either a 6-speed manual gearbox or a CVT automatic. Honda Elevate Black Series will rival other special editions in the compact SUV space like Creta Knight Edition.
