What the Essence (5-seater) Electric AT costs on the road
The price above is the sticker. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the Essence (5-seater) Electric AT comes to ₹23,48,655 on the road in Aizawl and ₹26,70,655 in Guwahati.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹3,22,000 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 21 states we can price this variant in, 13 of them are level at the lowest, and Assam 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.
