What the HTX (O) Turbo Petrol AT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTX (O) Turbo Petrol AT comes to ₹20,61,840 on the road in Itanagar and ₹23,52,805 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,90,965 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 ₹19.50L ex-showroom Delhi this is the 21st of 26 Carens Clavis variants by price, ₹29,000 above the HTX+ Turbo Petrol iMT. HTX (O) is sold this one way, as the Turbo Petrol 7-speed dual-clutch auto (dca). Stepping up to GTX from here starts at ₹41,000 more and buys LED fog lamps, though it gives up speakers (8 against 6).
More about the HTX (O) trim
The cheaper route to the DCT: Bose, drive modes and the parking brake by wire, without HTX+ money.
