Honda Elevate vs Creta vs Kushaq vs Taigun vs Astor | Best compact SUV

[@shivamshukla8145]

Hi bhai, I needed this video 2 months back😅..jokes apart very nice explanation. Though as your subscriber I took the decision after discussing with you over live streams and I went with creta sx tech ivt. I have drivern it more than 2000 kms in 1 month and I am impressed. I was underestimating it earlier and was confused between elevate and creta. But now I am completely satisfied with my decision and ofcourse with your suggestion. It has more than enough power as per my needs and It surprised me. Nice road presence with black colour, great comfort and adas is really helpful. I am completely satisfied with millage also getting 20+ on highway and 8-10 in heavy traffic. Though every car is nice in its own way but for my needs I found the correct one. Kudos to your efforts and quality content. Keep it up brother. Will try to join you soon in another live stream.

​@@Humani11why unsafe? If u say elevate is safe as it's built on city platform, creta is safer too as it's built on 5 star Verna platform. Any is unsafe after 80km/hr speed, all crash tests are done at 64km/hr.

[@jairajarora7933]

A very balanced analysis! Thanks a ton for your efforts & diligence ! Inclusion of atleast one either GV or Hyrider would have made it complete? Another important data point for analysis would have been pricing which has not been considered at all as features......some of them quite unnecessary come at a price but one is forced to pay for it? Elevate, otherwise a fantastic car, needs to upgrade/ add some basic essential features like TPMS, improved NVH, cruise control in VX variant, 360 degree camera (I am glad that they hve not provided panoramic sunroof) pretty quickly to stay relevant in the market? I am sure with addition of these features alone, Elevate will offer very stiff competition to Creta & its sale nos would go up to 4000-5000 range!

Also you should have included Toyota Hyrider and grand vitara as they are being sold in higher numbers compared to MG Astor.

Felt like the video should be practical so we can atleast see the vehicles on our right and left side ...

Great video, but I would like to disagree with one of your point. For comfort, you kept Astor as second, but it’s extremely bad. It is best and way ahead of all cars in terms of looks, premium interiors and great touch n feel. Has the worst suspension of all the cars out there, extremely stiff and highly uncomfortable. If there are few pot holes and bumps in city roads, then this is a nightmare for people sitting in the back. Also has the worst mileage.

Completely go with your choice bec both are good . Elevate is more relax , safe , long term and Creta is inclined towards more enthusiast

[@Mr.HiBuddy]

Creta looks good and has extra space for 3 passengers compared to elevate. IVT is faster than CVT in upshifting. The new creta looks appealing because of its facelift. Whereas Honda has launched Elevate in September 2023. Sadly I dont see Honda promoting much compared to other brands. I own Elevate ZX CVT R variant. I bought it just for its reliable all rounder performance of 1.5 ivtech and CVT which is smooth and best for city purpose and especially doesn't heat up on b2b traffic. Also it will never trouble you if periodical service is done as per manual. Moreover Honda has offered wonderful steering and seating comfort which are the sole purpose for a driver and passenger. I would say Elevate missed the built quality compared to City. Also its nvh is neither bad nor good. You will hear wind and engine noise post 80kmph. Some call it as enjoyable but i feel awful which makes me think am I labouring the engine? Next no 360. The left side blind spot and rear cameras are awful and for namesake. When you hear music even at level 16, the music can be heard outside. Doors are not that well built. We can feel the vibrations due to bass. Needs better built door panels or damping. Switches to operate rear windows are not illuminated and not easy to access. No movable armrest. Bodyroll at speeds above 50kmph on steep turns. Highlights: Boot space Bonnet visibility Good steering Seat comfort Smooth Engine inside city

They aren't that's the thing, personally I am fond of the looks of seltos , much better than facelift creta. But the thing is seltos in its rear doesn't give out much features ( I have htk+ in my budget) no adjustable headrests,no arm rest , no 60:40 split ,no auto-fold orvms , etc whereas all the above are present in creta s (optional) and the price diff is less than 50k (creta being expensive) so I am puzzled ,what to sacrifice and what to take ;_; seltos offers all its premiumness in front row.

I bought Creta 2 years ago. Elevate was not available then. Suspension of Creta is the poorest. And definitely not a drivers car. But shows the worth of money through plush interior and features. Kushaq and Taigun have an excellent suspension. And are drivers car, with good torque and power. And stability in the road. Only issue is width is less and features are not very great. The driving position is like a hatchback. Yet to drive an elevate. But the looks are not great and interiors suck. Nissan kicks is the best in all category.. but very poor interior.

I don't agree with some of the observations made about the Astor. As far as fuel economy goes, it does not match up to the competition but it is a very good car even in the city.. I have found the Astor very maneuverable inside the city with a good turning radius, which is critical. Out on the highway, it is rock solid and stays planted even at triple digit speeds. He talks of speed masking of the Elevate, I think he has not driven the Astor extensively on the highway. The Astor, especially the turbo, reaches triple digit speeds in a giffy and you wouldn't realise the speed until you look at the speedo. That's very good speed masking if you ask me. Then he talks of MG as a new brand whose longterm reliability is in question. People have been buying the Hector and I haven't heard anyone say anything bad about the reliability of that car. The Astor is a global product and I am sure it will be as reliable as the Hector if not more. So to cast as aspesion on reliability is, I feel, unfortunate. I cannot comment on the other cars mentioned here but as for the Astor, the observations are off the mark and inaccurate.
