What the S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT comes to ₹17,04,840 on the road in Itanagar and ₹19,45,247 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,40,407 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹16.10L ex-showroom Delhi this is the 13th of 27 Creta variants by price, ₹18,000 above the S(O) Diesel MT. The same S(O) Knight Edition features start at ₹1.71L less as the S(O) Knight Edition Petrol MT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed manual. Worth a hard look before you sign: the cheapest SX actually costs ₹1.06L less than this variant and buys SOS call and sequential indicators among 7 additions, though it gives up electronic parking brake + auto hold. Worth knowing that the SX is not sold with the Diesel with the 6-speed manual, so the move changes the powertrain too.
More about the S(O) Knight Edition trim
About Rs 18,500 over S(O) for the Knight's black look: black alloys with red calipers, metal pedals, black roof rails and mirrors, and black upholstery with brass piping. The equipment is S(O)'s; manual only, petrol or diesel.
Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT?
- ₹16.10L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it 13th of 27 by price, ₹18,000 above the S(O) Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT?
- Expect ₹17,04,840 in Itanagar and ₹19,45,247 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,40,407 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT have?
- The Diesel, 116 PS, with the 6-speed manual. The maker's figure for it is 21.8 km/l.
- What features does the Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: Rear parking camera, Headlamps (LED projector), Drive modes, Terrain modes, Cruise control and Dual-zone climate control.
- What does the Hyundai Creta S(O) Knight Edition Diesel MT miss out on?
- The SX above it adds SOS call, sequential indicators, puddle lamps, touchscreen (10.25" against 8") and 3 more, for ₹1.06L less. That is a different engine or gearbox though: the SX is not sold with this one. It would also cost you electronic parking brake + auto hold and drive modes, so it is not purely a step up.
- Is the S(O) Knight Edition the right Creta to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Hyundai Creta which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
