Honda Elevate and Amaze now available with retrofitted CNG kits

Honda has officially started selling CNG versions of the Elevate and Amaze in the Indian market. However, these are retrofitted CNG kits that are installed at the dealer level. Honda says that these CNG kits are approved by the government. However, to book one, the customer would need to visit the authorised dealership as the bookings for the CNG variants cannot be made through the online website.

The brand has not made any cosmetic changes to the CNG versions of the Elevate and Amaze. The CNG tank will be positioned in the boot, which means boot space will be compromised. The only change to the interior will be the addition of a button to switch fuel between CNG and petrol.
