What the X Turbo Petrol AT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the X Turbo Petrol AT comes to ₹1,53,21,108 on the road in Aizawl and ₹1,76,07,708 in Kochi.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹22,86,600 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out 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
Going all the way to the top V8 would buy you air purifier.
₹1.43Cr ex-showroom Delhi makes this the cheapest Defender 90 there is, ₹20.00L below the next one up. X is sold this one way, as the Turbo Petrol 8-speed torque-converter auto. Stepping up to V8 from here starts at ₹20.00L more and buys air purifier. Worth knowing that the V8 is not sold with the Turbo Petrol with the 8-speed torque-converter auto, so the move changes the powertrain too.
More about the X trim
Where the Defender 90 starts: the short, three-door Defender, P425, with adaptive LED headlamps, a 3D surround camera, a panoramic roof, Meridian sound and cooled front seats as standard.
