The full story
The Alcazar base model is the Executive, from ₹14.51L ex-showroom; the top model is the Signature, from ₹21.15L. That is ₹6.64L more.
The Signature adds level 2 (full suite) ADAS, 360° camera, blind spot monitor and Bose premium sound system, and 23 more over the Executive.
8 trims sit between the two, so the jump is rarely how anyone actually buys.
The best value for money on this ladder is the step into the Platinum (Diesel), not the jump to the top; above it the Signature adds panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats and rear ventilated seats, and 3 more for the rest of the money.
