of what the variant costs extra

AX7L 2.0 Petrol AT costs ₹1,01,500 more than Star Edition 2.0 Petrol AT and brings 3 features we value at ₹95,950, roughly 94% 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.
