N-Connecta or Tekna, and what each costs
Where you start
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.
The step up
Tekna
From ₹8.39L to ₹10.65L ex-showroom Delhi
The kit trim: bi-LED projectors, 360 camera, auto headlamps, rain-sensing wipers, cooled glovebox and the PlasmaCluster air purifier. Cruise control skips the AMT, so pick the manual or the CVT if you want it.
Our take
₹93,000 more buys 360° camera and headlamps (Bi-LED projector against Halogen)
What N-Connecta to Tekna costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹95,790 to ₹1,07,453 on the road, against the ₹93,000 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 ₹93,000 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 ₹11,663 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 ₹11,663, and both be right.
