Volvo Car India today announced its price hike for its range of models. Customers planning to buy one will have to pay up to 4 per cent more on the ex-showroom price. The price increase ranges from 1 lakh to 3 lakhs, depending upon the exact trim and model. The carmaker mentioned that the increase in input cost compelled them to make this decision.
This price is applicable from immediate effect. And hence the customers who have done their bookings prior to April 12 will get the benefit of price protection. All the bookings post- 12th April will go on sale with the price hike. The last price hike was announced at the beginning of the year. Since then, the disruption in the global supply chain and increasing logistic cost has further increased the input costs.
