Highline Plus or GT Line, and what each costs
Where you start
Highline Plus
From ₹14.30L to ₹15.45L ex-showroom Delhi
The comfort step: electric sunroof, 8in digital cockpit, keyless entry, auto headlamps, rain-sensing wipers and auto-dimming mirror arrive together. Cruise still needs the automatic.
The step up
GT Line
From ₹14.60L to ₹15.75L ex-showroom Delhi
The Sport line's entry: Highline Plus equipment in black GT dress with 17in black alloys as the one hardware change. Laser red ambient lighting and alu pedals set the tone; you pay about Rs 30,000 over Highline Plus for the look and the wheels.
Our take
Keeps ₹30,000, and gives up only wheel size (17" against 16")
Buy the Volkswagen Taigun Highline Plus and keep the ₹30,000: the Taigun GT Line only adds small touches like wheel size (17" against 16"). Nothing there changes the car.
What Highline Plus to GT Line costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹31,200 to ₹35,961 on the road, against the ₹30,000 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 ₹30,000 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 ₹4,761 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 ₹4,761, and both be right.
