Which Nissan Tekton variant should you buy?
Best value for money: Tekna, at ₹1.70L over the N-Connecta. No other step you pay for is better value for money on the price list.
Above that there is one upgrade left, Tekna+, at ₹1.10L over Tekna. Nothing sits above it to weigh it against, so take it because you want what it adds, not because it is next.

What the road does to this ranking
Where you register does not change which step is the best buy here. N-Connecta to Tekna asks the least money for each point of kit it hands over on the price list, and that holds once road tax is counted too, in all 25 of the states we can price this ladder in.
Why the road could have changed this, and did not
Every price on this page is the showroom's. States charge their road tax as a share of that price and step the share up in bands, so a trim that carries a car past a band boundary is charged for the whole boundary. A ranking worked out on the price list is not automatically the ranking you pay.
Take the badged step, N-Connecta to Tekna: ₹1,70,000 on the price list, and anywhere from ₹1,81,900 to ₹2,27,980 on the road. Gujarat and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out highest, across the 25 states behind that range. Every other step moves by its own amount, and that is what can reorder them.
We ranked all 5 of the steps we can compare like for like again in each of those states, and the order came back the same every time. So the badge above is safe to act on wherever you buy the car.
Where the kit that matters lands
- Airbags
- All 6 are standard from the base Visia, so nobody has to spend up for them.
- Safety kit
- Tekna+, from ₹16.49L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best.
The good news
Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.- Cheapest automatic
- Acenta Turbo Petrol AT, ₹14.99L
Then there is the engine
Picking the trim is only half of it. The Tekton is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.

|---|---|---|---|
| Turbo Petrol100 PS | Visia₹10.49L | 6-speed manual | 19.4 km/l |
| Turbo Petrol163 PS | N-Connecta₹14.99L | 6-speed manual | 17.8 km/l |

- It is the only step above the best-value one, so nothing higher up competes with it: ₹1.10L over Tekna for 360° camera and ADAS (Level 2 (full suite) against Level 2 (core suite)). Worth it if you specifically want that kit, hard to justify otherwise.
