What the HTX Turbo Petrol iMT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTX Turbo Petrol iMT comes to ₹19,30,590 on the road in Itanagar and ₹22,02,968 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,72,378 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 ₹18.25L ex-showroom Delhi this is the 17th of 26 Carens Clavis variants by price, ₹29,000 above the HTX Turbo Petrol MT. The same HTX kit starts at ₹29,000 less as the HTX Turbo Petrol MT; the extra here buys the Turbo Petrol with the 6-speed clutchless manual (imt). Stepping up to HTX+ from here starts at ₹44,000 more and buys speakers (8 against 6) and Bose premium sound system among 6 additions. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the Turbo Petrol with the 6-speed clutchless manual (imt), the HTX+ starts at ₹19.21L.

Kia Carens Clavis HTX: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Kia Carens Clavis HTX Turbo Petrol iMT?
- ₹18.25L, ex-showroom Delhi. That makes it 17th of 26 by price, ₹29,000 above the HTX Turbo Petrol MT.
- What is the on-road price of the Kia Carens Clavis HTX Turbo Petrol iMT?
- Expect ₹19,30,590 in Itanagar and ₹22,02,968 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,72,378 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 HTX Turbo Petrol iMT have?
- The Turbo Petrol, 160 PS, with the 6-speed clutchless manual (iMT). The maker's figure for it is 16 km/l.
- What features does the Kia Carens Clavis HTX Turbo Petrol iMT get?
- The kit worth naming on this trim: 360° camera, Headlamps (LED projector), Connected car tech, Driver display (10.25" digital), Front parking sensors and Cruise control.
- What does the Kia Carens Clavis HTX Turbo Petrol iMT miss out on?
- The HTX+ above it adds speakers (8 against 6), Bose premium sound system, rain-sensing wipers, ventilated front seats and 2 more, for ₹44,000 more. That is the cheapest way into the HTX+ though, on a different engine or gearbox: keeping this one, it is ₹96,000 more.
- Is the HTX 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.
