N-Connecta or Tekna, and what each costs
Where you start
N-Connecta
From ₹13.69L to ₹16.49L ex-showroom Delhi
The value peak: panoramic sunroof, 18in alloys, dual-zone climate with the PlasmaCluster purifier, cruise on every gearbox, a 10.25in digital cockpit and semi-leatherette seats. The wireless charger needs the DCT.
The step up
Tekna
From ₹15.39L to ₹17.79L ex-showroom Delhi
The safety step: 15 ADAS functions including AEB, lane keep assist and blind spot warning, plus ventilated seats, a powered driver's seat and an e-parking brake on every gearbox. Adaptive cruise and hill descent control need the DCT.
Our take
₹1.70L more buys level 2 (core suite) ADAS and blind spot monitor
What N-Connecta to Tekna costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹1,81,900 to ₹2,27,980 on the road, against the ₹1,70,000 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 ₹1,70,000 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 ₹46,080 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Gujarat and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala 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 ₹46,080, and both be right.
