Why Skip The Elevate VX?

While the VX variant of the Honda Elevate gets a lot of features for a suitable premium over the Elevate V variant, it still might leave you wanting for more. The best features of the Elevate are limited to the top-spec ZX including the 10.25-inch touchscreen and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) for a premium of less than Rs 1.5 lakh. Also, do note that if you want the Elevate in a dual-tone paint option, it’s only possible with the fully loaded ZX CVT variant.
