₹10,44,340 to ₹11,99,340 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

This one is sold in a single variant, so that range is geography and nothing else: the same car, priced in each of the 25 states whose rates we hold.

Of the 25 states we can price it in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Telangana comes out highest. That is ₹10,44,340 against ₹11,99,340, a difference of ₹1,55,000 on the identical car. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

The way in at Rs 9.99 lakh, and Hyundai has priced nothing above it yet. You get the full safety set every Bayon has, six airbags, ESC, hill start and tyre pressure monitoring, and the same 115 PS engine as the dearest one. What you don't get is a screen, a camera or a single speaker, and the spare wheel is a puncture kit. Fine if the price is the point; the HX 3 is the first one with a touchscreen, once Hyundai says what it costs.

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
