Why car prices are being hiked in India

Most automotive brands announce price hikes before the start of a new year. The common reasons for these increases are rising input costs, higher commodity prices and transportation costs, depending on the brand. As mentioned above, Audi is the third German brand to announce price hike, and the reasons cited by all three are similar.

All three brands have a long list of locally assembled, as well as fully imported models in their line-up, and the hike in prices is valid for the entire range.

For Audi, its locally assembled range includes the A4 and the A6 sedans, along with the Q3, Q3 Sportback, Q5 and Q7 SUVs. The brand also sells imports like the A5 Sportback, the Q8 SUV and its electric derivatives, and the e-tron GT and the RS e-tron GT in the Indian market.
