Worth knowing before you sign

  • The step from the HX 10 Knight Turbo Petrol AT to the HX 10 Diesel AT crosses Kerala's ₹15 lakh line: ₹83,000 more ex-showroom, but ₹43,750 more road tax, because the whole price moves from 15% to 17%.
  • The HX 2 Diesel MT is ₹2,20,350 more on the road here than the HX 2 Petrol MT, and ₹25,350 of that is Kerala's road tax.
  • On the Hyundai Venue HX 2 Petrol MT, Kochi is 5th dearest of 25 states: ₹80,200 over Arunachal Pradesh and ₹21,120 under Karnataka.

Which Venue to buy

Of every paid step up this ladder, HX 5 Knight to HX 5+ buys you the most for your money. In Kochi that step costs ₹32,770 on the road, rather than the ₹29,000 the showroom prices suggest.

Comprehensive own-damage cover
Not in this total. Lenders require it and most buyers take it, but it has been market-priced since 2007 and varies widely with insurer, cover value and no-claim bonus, so an honest single figure does not exist. Budget for it from real quotes on top of this total.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from
One figure here is weaker than the rest: the road safety cess is what Kerala is reported to charge, not something we could read in a notification. Treat that line as indicative and confirm it with your dealer. Everything else is computed from Kerala's own documents, last checked . Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
