In January 2023, Maruti Suzuki had hiked the prices of its vehicles across all models by about 1.1% to offset the impact of rising input costs and make provisions to update the model range to conform to the stringent RDE emission norms, ET Auto reported.
By Yash Jhunjhunwala New Delhi: In line with the BS VI Phase II, automakers have announced hike in prices. In the four-wheeler segment, Kia India has increased its prices by around 2%-3% for its RDE. Kia announced in a press release that the prices for the updated RDE variants of Sonet, Seltos and Carens will be starting from INR 7.79 lakh, 10.89 lakh and 10.45 lakhs onwards respectively.
Tata motors also announced on Tuesday that it is going to hike up to 5% of the price for their entire commercial vehicle portfolio, April 1, 2023 onwards. The company cited that the hike in price comes as a result of the Phase 2 of BS VI which is going to be effective from April 1, 2023.
The company also refreshed its passenger vehicle range with E20-compliant engines to conform with the new emission norms. In January 2023, Maruti Suzuki had hiked the prices of its vehicles across all models by about 1.1% to offset the impact of rising input costs and make provisions to update the model range to conform to the stringent RDE emission norms, ET Auto reported.
In the two-wheeler category, Hero MotoCorp will be revising the prices by 2% and the prices will vary by specific models and markets, the OEM said in a press release. The price revision comes as a result of cost increase on account of OBD 2 transition.
- Hero MotoCorp will continue to provide financing solutions to cushion the customers.
- Interestingly Indian consumers have absorbed price hikes and till now the demand has sustained.
- Since the pending orders are high, there will be a marginal impact but in the long run, the net disposable income will also impact consumer demand,” Gaurav Vangaal, Associate Director, S&P Global Mobility, said.
“The hike in prices is going to impact the lower end of the market. Since mobility has become a necessity, and auto industry contributes nearly 50% of the manufacturing GDP and around 7-8% of the national GDP – government should reconsider the tax policies for the industry as GST and cess on the higher end goes as high as to 52%,” Nikunj Sanghi, MD, JS Fourwheels said.
As a part of Real time Driving Emission (RDE) Phase II of BS VI norms, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are required to mandate their vehicles with an onboard self-diagnostic device (OBD device) which will be monitoring emissions in real time – using components like oxygen sensor and catalytic converter.
At any time, the vehicle exceeds the norm, an alert will be prompted to the owner. Vehicles running on a diesel engine will be required to have Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems onboard.
