Well, I would probably go with one of the hardtails. I don't think you need rear suspension for those kind of trails, and the rigid setup is way more versatile IMO.

those trails looks like hiking paths where bikes would not be allowed!

OK, so you have three bikes from the same company, each a higher spec than the last. You pay more, you get better spec. Buy the best bike you can reasonably afford. What's the question again? If you can afford it, gor fo the better components.
The prices are MSRP and are not generally the prices that bikes sell for depending on where you buy them. The prices are also not in USD so the majority of us have no basis to know if the prices are fair, even if those are the actual prices you will pay. Even if you do a currency exchange, it doesn't help much since the economies vary a lot between countries.
You need to be asking someone in your area that is familiar with the local market and what is available to you.
