Classic Pack EV or Favoured Pack EV, and what each costs
Where you start
Classic Pack EV
The same single-motor drivetrain and electronics as Essential, with Vescin sports seats and two extra body colours. The step up costs roughly Rs 2.95 lakh over Essential and buys cabin trim, not more range or power.

The step up
Favoured Pack EV
Mini's own top single-motor pack: 19-inch Kaleido Spoke wheels and JCW sports seats in a choice of three Vescin colours, on the same 204 hp motor and 462 km WLTP range as Essential and Classic. If you want more power or all-wheel drive, that is the SE All4 below, not this pack.

Our take
Keeps ₹2.60L, and gives up only wheel size (19" against 17")
Buy the Mini Countryman Electric Classic Pack EV and keep the ₹2.60L: the Countryman Electric Favoured Pack EV only adds small touches like wheel size (19" against 17"). Nothing there changes the car.
What Classic Pack EV to Favoured Pack EV costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹2,62,600 to ₹2,99,000 on the road, against the ₹2,60,000 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 ₹2,60,000 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 ₹36,400 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 ₹36,400, and both be right.
