Honda cars has expanded the visual appeal of the 2026 Elevate facelift with a refreshed exterior design and a new colour option. The updated SUV cars is now available with a choice of seven single-tone exterior colours, including the newly introduced Nordic Forest Pearl.

Honda has also added black-roof dual-tone combinations for select variants, taking the total number of available exterior colour combinations to 10. The colour range includes familiar shades from the outgoing model along with the new green-blue inspired Nordic Forest Pearl.

The new colour choices are particularly relevant because the facelift brings a more aggressive front-end design, new lighting elements, gloss-black exterior detailing and redesigned alloy wheels.

2026 Honda Elevate Facelift Colour Options

New Nordic Forest Pearl Colour

The biggest colour-related change on the 2026 Elevate is the introduction of Nordic Forest Pearl. 

The shade gives the SUV a darker, sophisticated appearance and complements the facelift's more rugged styling. It is available as a single-tone colour and can also be paired with a Crystal Black Pearl roof on the top-end configuration.

For buyers looking for something different from the usual white, silver, grey or red finishes, Nordic Forest Pearl is likely to be one of the more distinctive choices in the new Elevate range.

Dual-Tone Colour Options

Honda has also introduced three dual-tone combinations for the facelifted Elevate:

• Nordic Forest Pearl with Crystal Black Pearl roof

• Radiant Red Metallic with Crystal Black Pearl roof

• Platinum White Pearl with Crystal Black Pearl roof

The contrasting black roof gives the SUV a sportier appearance and works particularly well with the updated gloss-black exterior elements.

The dual-tone combinations are restricted to higher-end versions rather than being available throughout the range. Current variant information indicates that these combinations are offered on the ZX+ CVT.

Variant-Wise Colour Availability

Not every colour is available with every Elevate variant.

The base SV is offered with a more limited selection, while the V, VX and ZX variants provide a wider choice. The top-spec ZX+ gets access to the full colour range, including the dual-tone combinations.

The ZX+ Black is positioned differently and is offered in Crystal Black Pearl.

What Is New on the 2026 Honda Elevate?

The facelift is not limited to new colours. Honda has made several exterior and interior changes to give the Elevate a more premium and contemporary appearance.

The front-end changes include a new Bold Mesh Grille, revised tri-bar LED position lights and gloss-black styling elements.

At the rear, the SUV gets a full-width connected LED tail lamp, while the 17-inch alloy wheels receive a new dual-tone finish with a dark clear treatment.

The updated design gives the Elevate a more substantial visual presence without changing its basic SUV proportions.

New Interior Colour Theme

The exterior colour choices are complemented by an updated cabin.

Honda has introduced a Premium Dual-Tone Ivory-Black interior with soft-touch surfaces, gloss-black elements and premium leather upholstery on applicable versions.

The facelift also brings several comfort and convenience upgrades, including:

• Front-seat active ventilation

• Rear-seat active ventilation

• Wrap-around ambient lighting

• Electrostatic-touch LED cabin light

• USB-C charging ports

• Power-adjustable front seats

• Improved cabin refinement

These changes are intended to make the Elevate feel more premium compared with the pre-facelift model.

Honda Elevate Facelift: Price in India

The 2026 Honda Elevate facelift is priced from Rs. 11.80 lakh ex-showroom in India, with the range extending to around Rs. 18.30 lakh depending on the variant and transmission.

The facelift is available with multiple variants, while the new ZX+ grade sits at the top of the regular range.

The final on-road price will vary depending on the city, insurance, registration charges and selected variant.

Engine and Mechanical Package

Honda has retained the familiar 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine for the facelift.

The engine continues to be offered with a 6-speed manual transmission and CVT automatic transmission with paddle shifters.

The major changes for 2026 are therefore focused on styling, equipment, comfort and technology rather than introducing a new powertrain.

Which Honda Elevate Colour Should You Choose?

The choice largely depends on the type of look you want.

Nordic Forest Pearl is the most distinctive option and gives the facelift a sophisticated appearance. Platinum White Pearl is likely to appeal to buyers looking for a clean and premium finish, while Crystal Black Pearl delivers a darker and more aggressive look.

For buyers who prefer a sportier appearance, the Radiant Red Metallic with black roof combination offers a stronger visual contrast.

The dual-tone options also make the top-spec versions look more distinctive than the standard single-tone configurations.
