Upcoming Car Price Hikes in April 2025 – Here's What You Need to Know

Major automakers, including Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, and Mahindra, are set to increase the prices of their cars from April. The price hikes, varying between 2% and 4% based on the manufacturer and model, are mainly driven by the rising costs of key raw materials and increasing operational expenses. For several automakers, this marks the second price increase in the early months of 2025. It could significantly influence the purchasing behaviour of prospective buyers, potentially reducing demand in a market already sensitive to price changes.

Maruti Suzuki

Maruti Suzuki will increase prices across its entire vehicle range by up to 4%. The company cites rising input and operational costs as the reason for this decision. Price adjustments will vary depending on the specific model and variant.

Mahindra

Following industry trends, Mahindra will raise the cost of its cars in India by up to 3% from April onward. The company states that rising input costs are the main reason for this adjustment, along with growing operational expenses.

This price hike will affect Mahindra's current model range. This decision aligns with a wider trend in the automotive industry where manufacturers are raising prices due to increasing production costs.

Tata Motors

Tata Motors has confirmed that it will increase the prices of its models in April due to higher input costs. The precise percentage of the hike is currently unknown. However, it will vary by model and variant across the portfolio.

Hyundai

Hyundai cars will become up to 3% more expensive in April due to increased input, operational, and raw material costs.

Kia

Kia will increase the prices of all its cars, including the newly launched Syros, by up to 3% in April. Notably, the specific price change will depend on the model and variant. The upcoming price increase will be the brand's second in 2025. It will be driven by rising input costs.

Honda

Driven by increasing raw material expenses, Honda will join other automakers in implementing a price hike across its Indian model range in April. The company currently offers five models, including the City sedan and the Elevate SUV.

BMW

The prices of BMW and Mini cars in India will raise prices by as much as 3% from the next month. Without highlighting a specific cause, the company has hinted the price increase as a response to broader economic difficulties prevalent throughout the automotive industry.

Due to increasing input costs, Renault will increase prices on its models like the Triber, Kiger, and Kwid by up to 2% in April.
