The market around it
62% of 8 similar cars (2022 to 2024), each adjusted to this one, ask more than it does.
What to offer
- Owners who came down on a car like this came down about 5.7%.
- It already asks ₹12,000 less than our fair price of ₹4.6 lakh, so do not push too hard.
From how far sellers here have actually come down, not a promise. An inspection prices every fault it finds, and that moves a seller further.
Asking prices from live listings, not sale prices.

What to check on this one at 10,000 km
- Timing chain, not a belt, so no scheduled change. A rattle for a second on a cold start points to a stretched chain: listen for it.
- Still young, so wear is not the worry: accident repairs and a genuine odometer are. Paint depth and panel gaps tell you more than the service book.
