The full story
Engine or equipment, and only you can price that: the Brezza ZXi+ asks ₹55,000 more for 360° camera, blind spot monitor and head-up display, but the Hyundai Venue HX 8 costs less and has the stronger engine, at 120 PS against 103 PS. The useful extras on top: front parking sensors. The rest of the additions are minor trim.
- Going to the Brezza ZXi+, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, touchscreen (10.25" against 10.1") and 4-way powered driver seat, which the Venue HX 8 keeps
Whichever you pick, the variant is where the money goes
