What the Smart Turbo Petrol MT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the Smart Turbo Petrol MT comes to ₹7,76,540 on the road in Itanagar and ₹8,70,336 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹93,796 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
Going all the way to the top Fearless+ A PS Red Dark would buy you level 2 (core suite) ADAS, 360° camera and tyre pressure monitor, and 23 more.
₹7.40L ex-showroom makes this the cheapest Nexon there is, ₹82,000 below the next one up. It is also the cheapest of the 2 ways into Smart: the same features as the Smart CNG MT for ₹95,000 less. Stepping up to Smart+ from here starts at ₹82,000 more and buys 7" touchscreen and wired CarPlay / Android Auto among 3 additions.
