Which Citroen AircrossX variant should you buy?
Best value for money: Plus, at ₹90,000 over the You Comfort Edition. No other step you pay for is better value for money on the price list.
Above that, the one to think hardest about is Turbo Max, at ₹98,000 over Turbo Plus Comfort Edition. Of the 2 steps above the best-value one that keep the same engine and gearbox, none is worse value for money, so take it because you want what it adds, not because it is next.
One more upgrade above the best-value step is left out of that ranking, because it changes the engine or the gearbox too and its price is not the price of its features.

Why some steps are not ranked
What the road does to this ranking
Where you register does not change which step is the best buy here. You Comfort Edition to Plus asks the least money for each feature it adds on the price list, and that holds once road tax is counted too, in all 25 of the states we can price this ladder in.
Why the road could have changed this, and did not
Every price on this page is the showroom's. States charge their road tax as a share of that price and step the share up in bands, so a trim that carries a car past a band boundary is charged for the whole boundary. A ranking worked out on the price list is not automatically the ranking you pay.
Take the badged step, You Comfort Edition to Plus: ₹90,000 on the price list, and anywhere from ₹92,700 to ₹1,03,986 on the road. Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest, and Karnataka comes out highest, across the 25 states behind that range. Every other step moves by its own amount, and that is what can reorder them.
In each of those states we ranked the 4 steps that keep the same engine and gearbox again, and the order came back the same every time. So the badge above is safe to act on wherever you buy the car.

No AircrossX has ADAS, a 360 camera, a sunroof or cruise control at any price, on any trim.
Then there is the engine
Picking the trim is only half of it. The AircrossX is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.
