What the HTX (O) Diesel AT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTX (O) Diesel AT comes to ₹16,75,440 on the road in Itanagar and ₹19,11,683 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,36,243 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 ₹15.82L ex-showroom this is the dearest of the Syros's 17 variants, ₹82,000 over the HTX (O) Turbo Petrol AT beneath it. The same HTX (O) features start at ₹82,000 less as the HTX (O) Turbo Petrol AT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. There is no trim above HTX (O): money spent past this point buys powertrain, not equipment.

- Is there anything above the HTX (O) on the Kia Syros?
- No. HTX (O) is the top of the Syros range, so money spent past this point buys a different engine or gearbox rather than more equipment.
- Is the HTX (O) the right Syros 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 Syros which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
