Z4 or Z6, and what each costs
Where you start
Z4
From ₹15.57L to ₹18.03L ex-showroom Delhi
The everyday kit step, and the first one you can plug a phone into: the 8in screen gains wired Android Auto and CarPlay, plus cruise control, a height-adjust seat with lumbar, a rear wiper and roof rails.
The step up
Z6
From ₹17.17L to ₹18.82L ex-showroom Delhi
Diesel-only middle child: a sunroof, a reversing camera, six speakers, drive modes and the 175 PS engine arrive here. Still on steel wheels, though.
Our take
₹1.60L more buys rear parking camera and single-pane sunroof
What Z4 to Z6 costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹1,19,700 to ₹1,36,651 on the road, against the ₹1,14,000 the price list shows.
Why the road figure moves, and by how much
Road tax is charged on what the car costs, so moving up a trim moves the tax up with it. The ₹1,14,000 is the distance between two price tags; the road figures add the tax and the charges that difference attracts.
The rate is your state's to choose, and they do not choose alike, so this one step is worth ₹16,951 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest, and Karnataka comes out highest.
Only the rate where the car is registered applies to you, so hold a dealer's quote against your own state's figure rather than the range. The range is still worth knowing: it is why two owners can quote this step to each other, differ by ₹16,951, and both be right.
