Starting price is not the whole range. Each model starts below Above ₹40 Lakh ex-showroom. The ranges above include higher trims that can cost considerably more, and exclude registration, road tax and insurance.

Read the rating in context. *Global NCAP results refer to the tested variant and protocol, not every trim on sale. "Not listed" means no result has been published for that model, which is not the same as a poor one.

Which is the cheapest car above ₹40 lakh?

Which is the safest car above ₹40 lakh?

The BMW X1, Mercedes-Benz GLC and BMW X3 carry the best crash-test result here: 5 stars, though under different programmes (Euro NCAP, ANCAP), and results are not directly comparable across them. Check the variant you pick, as airbag count and ESC can differ by trim.

Which cars above ₹40 lakh are available with an automatic gearbox?

I'm the Automotive Editor at My Wheels Expert, and I write the MWE verdicts. Every model is scored on powertrain, tech, safety, comfort, efficiency and value — always against its own segment rather than the whole market, so an 8.4 on a hatchback isn't pretending to be an 8.4 on a luxury SUV. I came to cars from digital marketing and SEO, which left me stubborn about one thing: a price page should answer your question, not bury it three scrolls under an ad.
