of what the variant costs extra

Pure L 1.5 Petrol MT costs ₹65,000 more than Pure 1.5 Petrol MT and brings 2 features we value at ₹47,000, roughly 72% 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.

Most of it — ₹47,000 of the ₹47,000 — is equipment we value against parts you can buy and fit afterwards, led by 17-Inch Alloy Wheels and Leatherette Upholstery. Our figures for those are mid-market accessory prices, not a quote, so it is worth pricing them from a fitter against the ₹65,000 this variant costs extra.

Of the equipment this variant adds, at our valuations. Which features count as fit-later is set per feature in the methodology.
