Volvo increases prices of its select models in India by up to Rs. 2 lakh

Volvo Car India announced that it will increase prices of select cars from May 3, 2021. The company said that it will increase prices of the S90 sedan along with its SUV range which consists of the XC40, XC60 and the XC90. The quantum of price hike would be between ₹ 1 lakh to ₹ 2 lakh. The decision comes in the backdrop of rising input costs and weakening of the Indian currency. The last price hike by the company was announced in 2018 and since then it has maintained the price line for all its products. The decision comes as a result of increased cost in production, a volatile forex situation over the years and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the routine business set up.

Jyoti Malhotra, Managing Director, Volvo Car India “Our commitment to the Indian market and our customers is reflected in the fact that while the Indian auto industry went through price escalation across the spectrum, we at Volvo Cars maintained the prices of all our products for three years since 2018. We are however now faced with a situation where rising input costs leave us with no other option but to share some of these costs with the customer. We may have to relook at the prices and take further increase later in the year, depending on how input costs develop. As an organization focused on safety, we will continue to keep our promise towards our customers and prioritise their safety & well-being.”
