Against the base XE 26 kWh, it costs ₹1,00,000 more and adds 16 features we value at ₹83,725. That is the best return per rupee across the 4-trim range — which is not the same as saying the upgrade pays for itself.

Is it better to buy a lower trim and add accessories afterwards?
It depends on what you're after. Cosmetic items — alloy wheels, seat covers, infotainment screens — can usually be fitted afterwards. Safety and structural equipment such as additional airbags, ESC, ADAS and a factory sunroof generally cannot be retrofitted, so if you want those they have to come from the factory.
