How to judge an upgrade
The price gap is the selected variant’s price minus the starting variant’s price. A negative gap means you selected a cheaper variant. We compare equipment for the exact variants using the same feature rules as the model guide. A changed feature is not always an improvement; read its detail.
For example, a hypothetical ₹80,000 step-up costs about ₹1,333 per month over five years before financing. Decide whether the features you will use justify that cost. Read our variant-selection guide.

All 38 current combinations across 11 trims and five powertrains match the linked 2026 brochure and Kia’s Delhi/N10 configurator feed. Ex-showroom prices are rounded to the nearest rupee because some API rows contain paise fractions; raw values are retained in the audit. Eight dual-tone alternatives have variant-specific premiums, not a flat paint surcharge. Bengaluru on-road totals are estimates. Older website FAQs and comparison cells mention withdrawn combinations; current brochure plus priced manufacturer codes take precedence. Certified mileage is unverified; ownership efficiency and colour swatches are estimates/illustrations.

On-road prices, real-world efficiency, running costs and buying verdicts are Let’s Pick My Car estimates or opinions. “Not verified” means the reviewed sources do not settle that fact.
