Why Did Toyota Increase Prices?
Toyota Kirloskar Motor has stated that the price hike is due to rising input costs.
- Raw Materials: The cost of steel, aluminum, and other parts used to make cars has gone up.

- Industry Trend: It is common for car companies in India to increase prices at the start of a new calendar year to manage inflation.
What Should Buyers Do Next?
If you have already booked a car before these dates, you should check with your local dealership. In most cases, the price at the time of delivery is applicable, meaning you might have to pay the new rates. However, some dealers might offer protection against the hike if the booking was made much earlier.
