Max 1.2 Petrol MT costs ₹2,73,000 more than You 1.2 Petrol MT and brings 21 features we value at ₹2,20,000, roughly 80% of the price difference. Reasonable if you specifically want what it adds; not a bargain.

We price the equipment that separates these two trims. The rest of the difference pays for things we don't itemise — materials, fit and finish, and the manufacturer's own margin. An upgrade that clears 100% is one where the equipment alone is worth what it costs.
