Details of the Price Hike

Hyundai explained that rising input costs have forced the company to pass on some of the burden to customers. The price revision will apply across the range, but the specific increase for each model has not been detailed yet.

Based on current prices, the hike is expected to raise prices by Rs 5,500 to Rs 4.63 lakh, depending on the model. This adjustment marks Hyundai's second price increase in 2026. The company previously raised prices by 0.6 percent in January 2026.

Recent Price Changes and Model Impact

Earlier in March 2026, Hyundai increased the price of the Venue by Rs 20,000 after its introductory offer ended. The upcoming revision in May may further affect the Venue’s price, especially since the compact SUV has already seen a recent adjustment.

Hyundai has not provided a detailed breakdown of the new prices for each model. The company has stated that the extent of the increase will depend on the specific variant and model.

These changes reflect ongoing cost pressures in the automotive industry. Hyundai’s decision follows similar moves by other manufacturers facing higher input costs.
