The S450e Manufaktur Edition tops the range at ₹2.38Cr ex-showroom Delhi. On the equipment this site tracks it matches the base S450e Launch Edition, so what separates the two is something we do not list.

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 S450e Launch Edition Plug-in Hybrid AT comes to ₹2,35,68,631 in Aizawl and ₹2,70,88,831 in Kochi, a difference of ₹35,20,200 on the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price it in, Mizoram and Arunachal Pradesh are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out highest. 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.

None of the features we track changes from the S450e Launch Edition, and it opens up no engine or gearbox the S450e Launch Edition cannot have, so whatever sets it apart is something to see in person.
