The full story

Engine or equipment, and only you can price that: the Tekton Tekna+ asks ₹9,000 more for level 2 (full suite) ADAS, blind spot monitor and ventilated front seats, but the Tata Harrier Adventure X costs less and has the stronger engine, at the diesel's 350 Nm against the petrol's 280 Nm. The useful extras on top: front parking sensors and connected car tech.

  • Also on the Tekton Tekna+: 6-way powered driver seat, speakers (6 against 4) and electronic parking brake + auto hold, and some minor trim beyond that
  • Going to the Tekton Tekna+, you give up headlamps (Bi-LED projector against LED projector), touchscreen (10.25" against 10.1") and wired CarPlay / Android Auto, which the Harrier Adventure X keeps

Whichever you pick, the variant is where the money goes
