Maruti Suzuki Price Hike

Maruti Suzuki India has raised the prices of its entire lineup, including models like the Wagon R, Baleno, and Fronx, by up to 4% this month. The adjustment aims to offset rising input costs and operational expenses. Notably, this marks the third price increase in the first quarter of 2025, following similar hikes in January and February.

Currently, there is no confirmation on which model will see the steepest price rise. However, given the growing demand for SUVs, the extent of price adjustments is expected to vary across segments, from entry-level hatchbacks to premium SUVs. This move may also influence other automakers facing inflation and increasing commodity costs, prompting them to implement similar price revisions.
