The full story
The Innova Hycross base model is the G-SLF 7S, from ₹18.70L ex-showroom; the top model is the ZX(O), from ₹31.84L. That is ₹13.14L more.
The ZX(O) adds level 2 (core suite) ADAS, 360° camera, blind spot monitor and tyre pressure monitor, and 26 more over the G-SLF 7S.
10 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 GX(O) 7S, not the jump to the top; above it the ZX(O) adds tyre pressure monitor, blind spot monitor and level 2 (core suite) ADAS, and 16 more for the rest of the money.
