Volvo Car India has announced a price hike for some of its models on sale in India. The price hike in these vehicles is up to 1.8 per cent compared to earlier prices.
For the XC40, Volvo has hiked the price from INR 55.9 lakh to INR 56.9 lakh. The XC60’s price has been bumped up from INR 65.9 lakh to INR 66.5 lakh. The flagship XC90 is now dearer by INR 1.6 lakh and is priced at INR 96.5 lakh.

The new prices will be effective from today, that is, 25th November 2022. Customers who have already booked their cars will avoid facing this price hike. Volvo has said they are committed to price protection offered to customers who have booked their vehicles until 24th November 2022. All bookings made after this date will have the new prices applicable.
