The price hike will be applicable to all mass market models, including Kia Sonet, Kia Seltos, and Kia Carens
The Korean automaker, Kia, has announced that it will increase the prices of its models, effective from 1st April 2024. The price hike will affect all mass-market models, including the Seltos, Sonet, and Carens which will become more expensive by up to 3 percent from next month. The last price hike on Kia cars was announced in October 2023, making this the first price hike on Kia models in 2024.
Reason For The Price Hike
Kia has stated that it is raising the prices of its cars due to the increase in commodity prices, rising input costs, and supply chain-related inputs.
Commenting on this decision, Mr. Hardeep Singh Brar, National Head -Sales and Marketing, Kia India, said, "At Kia, we consistently strive to deliver premium and technologically advanced products to our esteemed customers. However, due to the continuous increase in commodity prices, adverse exchange rate and rising input cost, we are compelled to implement a partial price hike. The company is absorbing a significant portion of the increase, allowing customers to continue driving their favourite Kia cars without a major dent in their pockets".
