What the HTK+ Diesel AT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTK+ Diesel AT comes to ₹18,46,590 on the road in Itanagar and ₹21,07,072 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,60,482 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 ₹17.45L ex-showroom Delhi this is the 14th of 26 Carens Clavis variants by price, ₹35,000 above the HTK+ (O) Diesel MT. The same HTK+ kit starts at ₹2.17L less as the HTK+ Turbo Petrol MT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. Worth a hard look before you sign: the cheapest HTK+ (O) actually costs ₹1.15L less than this variant and buys wheel size (17" against 16") and wireless phone charger. Worth knowing that the HTK+ (O) is not sold with the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto, so the move changes the powertrain too.

Kia Carens Clavis HTK+: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Kia Carens Clavis HTK+ Diesel AT?
- ₹17.45L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it 14th of 26 by price, ₹35,000 above the HTK+ (O) Diesel MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Kia Carens Clavis HTK+ Diesel AT?
- Expect ₹18,46,590 in Itanagar and ₹21,07,072 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,60,482 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the sticker 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 Kia Carens Clavis HTK+ Diesel AT have?
- The Diesel, 116 PS, with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. The maker's figure for it is 17.5 km/l.
- What features does the Kia Carens Clavis HTK+ Diesel AT get?
- The kit worth naming on this trim: Front parking sensors, Cruise control, Sunroof (Single-pane), Auto climate (single zone), Wheel type (Alloy) and Roof rails.
- What does the Kia Carens Clavis HTK+ Diesel AT miss out on?
- The HTK+ (O) above it adds wheel size (17" against 16") and wireless phone charger, for ₹1.15L less. That is a different engine or gearbox though: the HTK+ (O) is not sold with this one.
- Is the HTK+ the right Carens Clavis 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 Kia Carens Clavis which-variant page. The short version: pay for a step only where the kit it adds is kit you would actually use.
