The full story
The Tiago base model is the Smart, from ₹4.77L ex-showroom; the top model is the Creative Plus, from ₹7.36L. That is ₹2.59L more. The dearest way to buy the Creative Plus is ₹7.91L.
The Creative Plus adds electronic stability control, 360° camera, blind spot monitor and tyre pressure monitor, and 16 more over the Smart.
Top of the ladder is not top of the price list here: the Creative CNG AT at ₹8.62L costs more.
4 trims sit between the two, so the jump is rarely how anyone actually buys.
The best value for money on this ladder is the step into the Creative, not the jump to the top; above it the Creative Plus adds auto-dimming mirror for the rest of the money.

Only the rows that differ. Most important first, and anything the top model gives up is marked, because a ladder is not always a straight climb.
