Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the P4 Diesel MT comes to ₹12,15,368 in Itanagar and ₹13,97,127 in Bengaluru, a difference of ₹1,81,759 on the identical car. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

What owners and testers say

Independent evidence only. Never the maker’s own marketing.

+ Autocar India's verdict is that it is honest to the core: it does exactly what it sets out to do, which is move nine people over roads that would trouble anything else at the price+ The suspension is proper hardware, double wishbones with coil springs at the front and a coil-sprung multi-link rear, and Autocar India rates it as feeling close to unbreakable next to similarly priced monocoque SUVs+ The 2.2 litre mHawk diesel, detuned here to 120 PS and 280 Nm, is exceptionally tractable: Autocar India found enough pull below 1,500 rpm to move off without stalling and enough between 1,800 and 2,800 rpm to overtake in a high gear− The side-facing third row bench does not come with seatbelts, per Autocar India. If you are buying this to carry a family, that is the single most important sentence here− Two front airbags even on the top P10, where most rivals now fit six as standard− No crash programme has tested the Neo Plus. Its shorter sibling the Bolero Neo took one star from Global NCAP in 2024 on an unstable passenger cell, which is not this car's result but is not encouraging about the family either

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
