Acenta or N-Connecta, and what each costs
Where you start
Acenta
From ₹6.83L to ₹9.26L ex-showroom Delhi
The comfort step: automatic climate control, a height-adjust driver's seat and electric folding mirrors. Choose the turbo CVT here and push-button start with the i-Key comes with it.
The step up
N-Connecta
From ₹7.46L to ₹9.70L ex-showroom Delhi
The sweet spot: alloys, a 7in digital cluster, six-speaker Arkamys audio, auto-dimming mirror, rear USB-C and push-button start on every engine. One quirk worth knowing: its 8in connected touchscreen is smaller than the 9in unit on cheaper grades.
Our take
Keeps ₹63,000, and gives up only speakers (6 against 4) and driver display (7" digital against Semi-digital)
Buy the Nissan Magnite Acenta and keep the ₹63,000: the Magnite N-Connecta only adds small touches like speakers (6 against 4), driver display (7" digital against Semi-digital) and wheel type (Alloy against Steel). Nothing there changes the car.
What Acenta to N-Connecta costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹64,890 to ₹82,330 on the road, against the ₹63,000 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 ₹63,000 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 ₹17,440 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest, and Jharkhand 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 ₹17,440, and both be right.
