After much deliberation, discussion and calculation, we decided to go with the Carens Petrol 1.5 Luxury iMT model in Imperial Blue color.
Booking has been done and hope to get it soon.

Great choice! Congratulations and happy mile munching to you and your family. Carens is one car which is hard to reject once you experience it. I am sure you kids must have loved it even more.

Amazing choice buddy! Hope to see a writeup on that! The Carens is a feature-packed family car, so it'll keep all the family members happy! The engine is a very smooth engine - very less engine noise, smooth shifting, the works!

Just a quick question, is Apple Carplay/Android Auto wireless or wired? Asking for a friend!

Thank you!

I did not specifically check, but as per the brochure, all variants except Premium (base) have it wireless.

If your prime importance is spacious 5 seater, i would blindly recommend City ZX. Recently needed 2nd car in my garage and i added pre worshipped 5th Gen City ZX MT and my family is absolutely loving the space and comfort it offers over our Verna

Congrats on a great purchase
Looking forward to an ownership review once you've driven enough and are comfortable.

What is going on with Honda though? Multiple accounts of don't care attitude across regions!
Was their customer service department fired and weren't expecting the Elevate to do so well?
The market has rewarded Honda with astounding response to the Elevate, I hope they don't squander it away with poor service.

Would recommend looking at Ertiga for the application. Decent space and boot. I would also seriously look at ciaz, Brezza too if I were in your place.
