The HTE (O) Diesel MT is ₹1,96,005 more on the road here than the HTE Petrol MT, and ₹17,005 of that is Uttar Pradesh's road tax.
On the Kia Sonet HTE Petrol MT, Kanpur is 12th dearest of 25 states: ₹48,165 over Arunachal Pradesh and ₹45,756 under Karnataka.

Which Sonet to buy

Of every paid step up this ladder, HTK+ (O) to HTX buys you the most for your money. In Kanpur that step costs ₹84,375 on the road, rather than the ₹75,000 the showroom prices suggest.

The fine print

Road tax (9.5%): Derived 2026-08-07 from CarWale's published on-road breakdown for Lucknow, 10 cars from Rs 3.70L to Rs 59.65L. Above Rs 10 lakh: 6 observations, raw 11.42% to 11.67%, fitted slope 11.41% with Rs 3,362 fixed. Rs 4L to 10L: two observations, raw 9.69% and 9.92%, 9.27% net of that fixed component. Below Rs 4L: one observation at Rs 3.70L, 7.09% net; the boundary was moved down from Rs 6L after three cheap cars in Lucknow came out 7 to 8 points wide of the pack. NOT read from any Uttar Pradesh notification; the department's site refuses connections from outside India
Registration fee (central): CMVR Rule 81, as amended by GSR 1183(E) dated 29-12-2016
Third-party insurance (3 years, incl. 18% GST): Motor Vehicles (Third Party Insurance Base Premium and Liability) Rules 2022, G.S.R. 394(E) dated 25-05-2022, as amended by G.S.R. 32(E) dated 05-01-2024; both gazettes read from egazette.gov.in. PA cover per IRDAI circular IRDAI/NL/CIR/MOTP/158/09/2018
Personal accident cover (1 year, incl. 18% GST): Motor Vehicles (Third Party Insurance Base Premium and Liability) Rules 2022, G.S.R. 394(E) dated 25-05-2022, as amended by G.S.R. 32(E) dated 05-01-2024; both gazettes read from egazette.gov.in. PA cover per IRDAI circular IRDAI/NL/CIR/MOTP/158/09/2018; The Rs 15 lakh owner-driver cover is mandatory; this prescribed rate is what most insurers charge for the annual form.
FASTag: Tag cost only. Issuers add a deposit and minimum balance; dealer bundles commonly total Rs 500-600.
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.

Uttar Pradesh's rates here are derived from published on-road prices rather than read from the state's own schedule, so treat them as indicative and confirm with your dealer.

Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.

Where these figures come from

One figure here is weaker than the rest: the road tax is what Uttar Pradesh 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 Uttar Pradesh's own documents, last checked on 7 August 2026. Rates change with state budgets, so confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
