What the GT Plus 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 GT Plus Turbo Petrol AT comes to ₹19,93,590 on the road in Itanagar and ₹22,74,890 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,81,300 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka 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.

The full story
At ₹18.85L ex-showroom this is the 10th of 12 Virtus variants by price, ₹2.50L above the Topline Turbo Petrol AT. GT Plus is sold this one way, as the Turbo Petrol 7-speed dual-clutch auto (dca). Stepping up to GT Plus Sport from here costs ₹35,000 more and changes none of the equipment we track, and opens up no engine the GT Plus cannot already be had with, so whatever separates them is something to see in person.

The 150 PS flagship: Topline's full kit on the 1.5 TSI Evo DSG with GT chrome details, laser red ambient lighting and red front calipers. The GT Plus Sport sells the same kit in black trim for Rs 35,000 more.
