Our methodology
Every "worth it" verdict is produced from five quantitative dimensions — Value for Money, Range, Features & Tech, Brand & Service, and Ownership Costs. Each is scored 0-10 using the vehicle's real data, body-type-specific benchmarks, and India-specific service network data. No sponsored content influences the score. We publish the formula in our methodology page for full transparency.
