The Bayon base model is the HX 2, from ₹10.00L ex-showroom; the top model is the HX 10, from ₹16.65L. That is ₹6.65L more. The dearest way to buy the HX 10 is ₹18.00L.
The HX 10 adds level 2 (full suite) ADAS, 360° camera, blind spot monitor and all-wheel disc brakes, and 29 more over the HX 2.
5 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 HX 5, not the jump to the top; above it the HX 10 adds all-wheel disc brakes, 360° camera and front parking sensors, and 19 more for the rest of the money.
