Honda Car India has introduced a new limited-edition variant of its popular Elevate SUV, called the Apex Summer Edition. This special edition is now listed on the brand’s official website and brings several cosmetic and feature upgrades over the standard model. It is available in both manual and automatic forms, with prices starting at Rs. 12.39 lakh and going up to Rs. 13.59 lakh (ex-showroom).
Overview
The Elevate Apex Summer Edition is based on the V variant of the standard Elevate. What makes it stand out is the added value it offers in terms of features while maintaining a lower price point than higher trims. This approach makes it an attractive deal for buyers who want more without going all the way up the variant ladder.
Design
On the outside, the Apex Summer Edition follows the styling cues of previous Apex variants. It sports a piano black finish with chrome detailing on the front and rear, giving it a more stylish and premium look. The Apex Edition badging on the exterior helps it stand apart from the regular Elevate trims.
Step inside, and the interior receives a dual-tone colour scheme with upgraded leatherette seat upholstery. Additional enhancements include new door trims, ambient lighting, and seat cushions — small touches that improve cabin comfort and appearance.
Features
The Elevate Apex Summer Edition focuses on enhancing tech and convenience features. The key highlight is a larger nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which offers better visibility and interface than the standard unit.
Another major upgrade is the inclusion of a 360-degree camera, a valuable feature that aids in safer parking and manoeuvring — especially in tight urban spaces.
Here’s a quick features summary:
| Feature | Apex Summer Edition |

| Exterior Trim | Piano black with chrome |
| Seat Upholstery | Leatherette, dual-tone |

Engine and Transmission
Honda has made no changes to the mechanical side of things. The Elevate Apex Summer Edition continues to be powered by the same 1.5-litre petrol engine that delivers 119bhp and 145Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed CVT automatic.
This engine-transmission setup is already known for its refinement, smooth power delivery, and decent fuel efficiency, making it ideal for daily use and occasional road trips.
Availability
Bookings for the Elevate Apex Summer Edition are now open at authorised Honda dealerships across India. Since this is a limited-edition model, availability will vary by location and may be subject to stock. Delivery timelines are also expected to be dealer-dependent, so interested buyers should reach out to their nearest showroom for details.
Honda’s Elevate Apex Summer Edition adds style and functionality to an already capable SUV package. With no changes in performance but a bunch of premium features at a competitive price, it offers great value to customers looking for something exclusive.
