Real-world Performance Comparison between Honda Elevate and Honda City CVTs
In 2023, Honda’s eagerly awaited small SUV, the Elevate, made its debut in India. It has the same base and powerplant as the Honda City, therefore many of its mechanical components are similar. We recently evaluated the practicality of these Honda twins by driving the automatic CVT versions of both of these vehicles. Let’s test the speed differential. Let’s look at their engine specs before moving on to the performance results:
Powertrain Details
| Specifications | Honda Elevate | Honda City |
| Engine | 1.5 liter naturally aspirated (NA) Petrol | |
| Power | 121 PS | |
| Torque | 145 Nm | |
| Transmission | CVT | |
Although both of these cars have the option of a manual transmission, we will only discuss the performance of the CVT variants that we tested.
Acceleration Test
| Tests | Honda Elevate CVT | Honda City CVT |
| 0-100 kmph | 12.35 seconds | 10.94 seconds |
| Quarter Mile | 18.64 seconds at 125.11 kmph | 17.87 seconds at 130.39 kmph |
| Kickdown (20-80kmph) | 7.2 seconds | 6.36 seconds |
The Honda City outperformed the Honda Elevate by 1.4 seconds in the 0-100 kmph sprint, while the gap was less than 1 second in the quarter mile. Again, there was less than a second’s difference in their timings during the kickdown from 20 to 80 kmph. The Honda Elevate weighs more than 100 kg more than the City, based on the available kerb weight statistics, which probably explains why the City was faster. The sedan’s faster performance over the SUV is probably also due to its relatively more aerodynamic shape.
Braking Test
| Tests | Honda Elevate CVT | Honda City CVT |
| 100-0 kmph | 37.98 metres | 41.88 metres |
| 80-0 kmph | 23.90 metres | 26.50 metres |
The Elevate stops about 4 meters faster than the Honda City while stopping from 100 kmph to a standstill. Honda’s SUV outperforms the City by 2.6 meters even while stopping at 80 kmph. The only disc brakes available on the Elevate and the City are in the front. On 17-inch alloy wheels, the Honda Elevate has wider 215-section tires, while the Honda City has comparatively smaller 185-section tires on 16-inch alloy wheels.
Key Points
Thus, the Honda City accelerates more quickly than the Honda Elevate, but the Elevate stops better than the City. They may operate differently even when they have the same engine and transmission because of differences in their weights and wheel diameters.
Note of disclaimer: The performance numbers are subject to change based on the driver, road conditions, and weather.
Price
| Honda Elevate | Honda City |
| Rs 11.58 lakh to Rs 16.20 lakh | Rs 11.71 lakh to Rs 16.19 lakh |

Analysis of the Top-spec Hyundai Creta N Line N10 Variant: Is It Worth It?
The top-spec N10 model of the Hyundai Creta N Line costs significantly more but gains a few extra conveniences and safety technologies despite having the same appearance as the base N8 variant. Similar to the N8, the 160 PS turbo-petrol engine of the N10 version is available with both manual and automatic transmissions. Let’s examine whether expanding your budget makes sense:
|
Variant |
1.5-litre Turbo-petrol MT |
1.5-litre Turbo-petrol DCT |
|
N10 |
Rs 19.34 lakh |
Rs 20.30 lakh |
Why Give The Creta N Line N10 Any Thought?
The N10 version is the one to choose if you want to enjoy the premier Hyundai Creta N Line experience with all of the luxury features included with the SUV. In comparison to the N8, it has more features such power-adjustable driver’s seat, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), 360-degree camera, ventilated front seats, and dual 10. 25-inch displays (one for infotainment and the other for instruments). For an extra charge of up to Rs 2.52 lakh, all these extra functions are available.

What Could Have Been Better About The Creta N Line N10?
The N10 is a rather well-packaged model, but given that its costs are well above Rs 20 lakh, it should have benefitted from a few extra high-end features like a motorized co-driver seat and a heads-up display. That said, the N10 promises to deliver a sporty N Line feel on the well-liked Hyundai SUV, combined with the best comforts and safety technology.
| Variant | Verdict |
|
N8 |
Despite having a lot of technology, it lacks several unique characteristics. Select only if you can forgo the flagship experience in favor of the more affordable, sportier Creta with the MT. |
|
N10 |
If you want the full N Line-specific experience from the SUV and would rather have extra safety features, go for it. |
