HX 5 Knight or HX 5+, and what each costs
Where you start
HX 5 Knight
From ₹9.71L to ₹11.19L ex-showroom Delhi
About Rs 15,000 over HX 5 (Rs 19,000 on the diesel) for the all-black Knight look, and it brings real kit with it: black alloys in place of steel wheels, roof rails, leatherette seats and red calipers. Only the 1.2 petrol and diesel manuals.
- HX 5 Knight Petrol MT₹9.71L
- HX 5 Knight Diesel MT₹11.19L
The step up
HX 5+
₹10.00L ex-showroom Delhi
A 1.2-only comfort branch: LED headlamps, roof rails and wireless charging.
- HX 5+ Petrol MT₹10.00L
Our take
₹29,000 more buys headlamps (LED projector against Halogen) and auto headlamps
What HX 5 Knight to HX 5+ costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹29,870 to ₹73,060 on the road, against the ₹29,000 the price list shows.
Why the road figure moves, and by how much
Road tax is charged on what the car costs, so moving up a trim moves the tax up with it. The ₹29,000 is the distance between two price tags; the road figures add the tax and the charges that difference attracts.
The rate is your state's to choose, and they do not choose alike, so this one step is worth ₹43,190 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest, and Telangana comes out highest.
Only the rate where the car is registered applies to you, so hold a dealer's quote against your own state's figure rather than the range. The range is still worth knowing: it is why two owners can quote this step to each other, differ by ₹43,190, and both be right.
