Arent you specifying type of transmission? For Indian made 80hp Suzuki Swift, automated manual transmission (slow and jerky unless gently accelerating) is 450$ premium, which matches the price difference of your truck.

For 80hp Suzuki Baleno and 110hp Yaris, CVT had $1200 premium, for 120hp Hyundai Verna, 6 sped TC had $1200 premium.

Prices above are for a 5-speed manual transmission vs CVT.
