Hyundai & Nissan Price Hike

While the Hyundai cars will get pricier by up to Rs 1 lakh, the quantum of increase for the Nissan and Datsun models is up to Rs 30,000.

In a bit to offset the rising manufacturing cost, several car manufacturers have announced to increase the prices of their entire product lineup. Now, Hyundai and Nissan Group of India too have announced a price increase across their complete model range in the country. While the Hyundai cars will get pricier by up to Rs 1 lakh, the quantum of increase for the Nissan and Datsun models is up to Rs 30,000. The revised prices will be effective from January 1, 2017.

Commenting on the price hike, Mr. Rakesh Srivastava, Sr. Vice President, Sales and Marketing said, “In these challenging year end market conditions, we are constrained to consider price increase on account of factors like increased input costs, fluctuating exchange rates and increasing marketing expenses. The proposed price increase will be up to Rs. 1,00,000 and will be effective from January 2017 across all models from Eon to Santa Fe.”

Mr. Arun Malhotra, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India Pvt. Ltd. said, “The price increase comes as a result of rising input costs. The revision of prices will help us offset the impact of this and maintain our competitiveness in the industry.”
