Tata Motors, Kia India to hike passenger vehicle prices from Jan 2025

Tata Motors and Kia India on Monday announced plans to hike vehicle prices from January to offset the impact of rising input costs. Tata Motors said it will hike the price of its passenger vehicle portfolio, including electric vehicles, by up to 3 per cent from January next year. The price hike is being undertaken to partially offset the rise in input costs and inflation, the Mumbai-based auto major said in a statement. "Effective January 2025, the price increase will vary depending on model and variant," it added. Tata Motors sells a range of passenger vehicle models ranging from Tiago hatchback to SUVs Harrier and Safari. Kia India, which sells models like Seltos and Sonet, said it will increase prices of its entire model range by 2 per cent from January. The price hike, effective from January 1, 2025, is primarily due to rising commodity prices and escalating supply chain-related costs, the automaker said in a statement.
