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 Diesel MT₹11.19L
Our take
Keeps ₹15,000, and gives up only wheel type (Alloy against Steel) and roof rails
Buy the Hyundai Venue HX 5 and keep the ₹15,000: the Venue HX 5 Knight only adds small touches like wheel type (Alloy against Steel), roof rails and leatherette upholstery. Nothing there changes the car.
What HX 5 to HX 5 Knight costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹15,450 to ₹17,331 on the road, against the ₹15,000 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 ₹15,000 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 ₹1,881 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest, and Karnataka 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 ₹1,881, and both be right.
