Toyota is yet to announce the quantum of the price hike

Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has announced that it plans to increase prices across its model range with effect from April 1, 2021. The automaker said that the increase in input costs for raw materials necessitated the price hike. However, Toyota did say that it has tried to absorb the cost increase and only a minimal portion will be passed on to customers. The rising input costs have been a steady concern for automakers as other brands have also announced price hikes from next month onwards.

During such testing times, it has been our endeavour to absorb cost increases through our internal efforts, and only a minimal portion will be reflected onto the prices. As a customer-centric company, we reinforce our commitment to cater to the ever-evolving needs of our customers by consciously minimizing the impact of rising costs on consumers.”
