Not every rung here is a straight upgrade. 4 of them hand back more equipment than they add, so they are shown in full but left out of the value ranking rather than dressed up as a step up.

Where the kit that matters lands

• Airbags: all 6 are standard from the base G-SLF 7S, so nobody has to spend up for them.
• Safety kit: ZX(O), from ₹31.84L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best. Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.
• Automatic: the cheapest is the G-SLF 7S Petrol AT at ₹18.70L. See it

Then there is the engine

Picking the trim is only half of it. The Innova Hycross is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.
