The full story
Moving up costs you ₹4.99L ex-showroom Delhi on the same engine and gearbox: ₹87.49L for the Couture Edition against ₹82.50L for the GT.
None of the equipment we track changes here, and the Couture Edition opens up no engine the GT cannot be had with. Worth asking a dealer what the money buys before you spend it.
GT or Couture Edition, and what each costs
Where you start
GT
₹82.50L ex-showroom Delhi
The only spec MG sells, so nothing is optional: 510 PS, scissor doors, Brembo brakes, the triple-screen cockpit and a roof that drops in ten seconds.
- GT Electric AT₹82.50L
The step up
Couture Edition
₹87.49L ex-showroom Delhi
One of 50, for about Rs 4,99,000 more: white paint with orange Serpent Infinity streaks, Serpent Infinity bonnet badges, gold-finish MG emblems and embroidered logos on the tonneau cover, designed with Gaurav Gupta. The car underneath is identical, so this is a collector's choice rather than a better-equipped one.
- Couture Edition Electric AT₹87.49L
Our take
Nothing on the spec sheet separates these, so the only question is what you pay.
What GT to Couture Edition costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹5,03,990 to ₹5,73,850 on the road, against the ₹4,99,000 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 ₹4,99,000 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 ₹69,860 more in one place than in another. Of the 17 states we can price this step in, 9 of them are level at the lowest, and Assam 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 ₹69,860, and both be right.
What the Couture Edition adds
Nothing we track, and no engine the GT cannot be had with either. Ask a dealer what the difference actually is before you pay for it.
