Classic or Classic+, and what each costs

Skoda Kylaq Classic

Where you start

Classic

₹7.59L
ex-showroom Delhi

Six airbags, ESC and roof rails even at the floor price, but no touchscreen at all: the audio is wiring and tweeters awaiting a radio. MT only.

Skoda Kylaq Classic+

The step up

Classic+

₹8.29L to ₹9.29L
ex-showroom Delhi

One rung up buys the electric sunroof, cruise, rain-sensing wipers and an auto-dimming mirror. Still screenless, but the automatic starts here.

What Classic to Classic+ costs on the road

What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹72,100 to ₹80,878 on the road, against the ₹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 ₹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 ₹8,778 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 ₹8,778, and both be right.
