Pros & Cons

Elevate Pros & Cons	Syros Pros & Cons	Kushaq Pros & Cons
Pros	Comes equipped with the popular VTEC engine. Provides utmost comfort in the cabin. It has LEVEL 2 ADAS for added safety. It is one of the biggest in dimensions compared to its rivals. Boot space is the best in the segment with 458L on offer. The CVT gearbox is smooth with shifts.	Boasts a boxy and unique exterior, making it one of the most stylish compact SUVs in its segment. Loaded with advanced features like a large 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bose sound system, and ventilated seats, it offers great value for money. Two engine options including turbocharged options ensures a variety of choices to suit performance and efficiency needs. The interior materials and build quality are premium and provide a good feel. Equipped with 6 airbags, ABS, ESC, and ADAS (in top variants), it ensures driver and passenger safety. Big on space on the inside, the reclining and sliding rear seat offers good space Big boot space of up to 465 litres The base variant is equipped with a decent number of features	Simple yet stylish exterior design with signature Skoda design language Powerful 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine with 148 bhp of power and an option of smooth DSG transmission The 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine is sporty with an engaging 6-speed MT & a smooth AT gearbox The interior is simple and practical with good storage space The cabin offers good ergonomics, comfortable seats, ample legroom The feature offering is good which includes an electric sunroof, electrically adjustable front seats, and a big touchscreen infotainment, among others A good number of safety features such as 6-airbags, ESC, brake disc wiping, and others It boasts a 5-star GNCAP crash test safety rating
Cons	It misses on the Hybrid/diesel engine which the competition offers Lacks some premium features like ventilated seats, and a 360-degree camera.	The carmaker is not offering any naturally aspirated engine with the Syros. The availability of an NA engine can make the model more affordable. The turbocharged petrol variants may not be as fuel-efficient as naturally aspirated engines. Whereas the design part is unique and stylish for many, Syros’s design may look polarising to some who are inclined toward conventional aesthetics. Not a driver’s car, the Syros offers decent ride quality but it is not meant for dynamism and enthusiastic driving The suspension is on the softer side which can be a concern for some peopl The placement of the headlamps could have been better, they are prone to get scratched easily	The interior width is not that good fitting 3 adults in the rear seat might be difficult It misses on some features as compared to its rivals such as a panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, ADAS, USB charging ports No diesel engine is available in the lineup The DSG gearbox has reliability issues and it has faced breakdowns previously The top-spec variants cost over Rs 20 lakh on-road which is quite expensive considering the feature offering Turbo petrol engines are not much fuel-efficient Skoda’s after-sales service is not that great as compared to rivals like Hyundai, KIA and Maruti Suzuki The boot space is quite less as compared to other cars in the segment

  The rear seats are new, comfortable, and recliner-style, offering a good seating experience. On highways, some outside noise is noticeable, and a broader wheelbase would improve stability. A dashcam is included, but the seats could still be more comfortable, and additional boot space would be appreciated. Overall, it’s an okay car with room for improvement.

  The Honda Elevate is a great car with impressive performance and a well-tuned engine that reflects Honda’s engineering excellence. I get a mileage of around 14–15 kmpl in the city and 18–19 kmpl on the highway, which is quite satisfactory. However, I feel the maintenance costs and spare parts are on the higher side. Despite that, the driving experience is smooth and powerful. I would definitely recommend the Honda Elevate to those looking for a reliable and refined SUV.
