of what the variant costs extra

Longitude Plus 2.0 Diesel AT costs ₹1,86,000 more than Longitude 2.0 Diesel AT and brings only ₹97,500 of equipment we can put a price on — about 52% of what you pay. Unless you specifically need something in the list below, Longitude 2.0 Diesel AT is the better buy.

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.

Most of it — ₹68,750 of the ₹97,500 this variant adds — is equipment that only comes from the factory, led by Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof. If you want it, a dearer variant is the only way to get it.
