Tekna or Tekna Launch Edition, and what each costs
Where you start
Tekna
From ₹8.08L to ₹8.64L ex-showroom Delhi
The top of the range: LED headlamps, suede and leatherette seats, i-Key push start, a 7in digital cluster, auto lamps and wipers, front sensors and six speakers. Cruise control is manual-only here, and the wheels are styled steel, not alloys.
- Tekna Petrol MT₹8.08L
- Tekna Petrol AT₹8.64L
The step up
Tekna Launch Edition
From ₹8.53L to ₹9.09L ex-showroom Delhi
Tekna plus a Rs 44,500 bundle of Nissan accessories: JBL speakers, a dual dashcam, an air purifier, ambient mood lighting, a wireless charger, cushions and aero styling. They are fitted accessories with a supplier warranty rather than factory equipment, so weigh that bundle against buying the pieces you actually want.
Our take
Nothing on the spec sheet separates these, so the only question is what you pay.
What Tekna to Tekna Launch Edition costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹46,350 to ₹51,993 on the road, against the ₹45,000 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 ₹45,000 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 ₹5,643 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 ₹5,643, and both be right.
What the Tekna Launch Edition adds
Nothing we track, and no engine the Tekna cannot be had with either. Ask a dealer what the difference actually is before you pay for it.
