Powertrain
2.0 TSI EVO Petrol 4MOTION: The 204 PS 2.0 turbo-petrol moves this three-row SUV with unstressed, quiet ease, and 4MOTION keeps it planted whatever the surface. Petrol-only where rivals offer diesel, so expect refinement over range between fill-ups

What the Life Turbo Petrol AT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the Life Turbo Petrol AT comes to ₹45,23,738 on the road in Ahmedabad and ₹51,95,778 in Kochi.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹6,72,040 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Gujarat, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out 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.
