Hyundai Cars Could Get Costlier From June 1: Second Price Hike Of 2026

Hyundai Motor India is expected to increase the prices of its vehicles starting this June due to rising input costs, increasing commodity prices, and higher operational expenses. The South Korean automaker had originally planned to implement a price hike from May 1, 2026, but later decided to postpone the move considering customer interests and market conditions.

Hyundai Price Hike Expected From June 2026

However, the company is now expected to proceed with the planned price revision from June 1, 2026. According to multiple reports, the upcoming price hike could be as high as Rs 12,800 depending on the model and variant. This will also mark Hyundai's second price increase in 2026.

The company had already implemented a price hike across its portfolio in January 2026. With rising costs continuing to impact the automotive industry, manufacturers are increasingly finding it difficult to absorb additional expenses without passing a portion of the burden to customers.

The passenger vehicle market in India remains one of the most competitive automotive segments in the world. Despite intense competition, Hyundai has successfully maintained its position as one of India's leading car manufacturers for several years and has built a strong reputation among consumers through its wide range of products, features, and after-sales network.

However, competition continues to intensify as new manufacturers and brands enter the Indian market with aggressive pricing and feature-rich products. In such a highly competitive environment, pricing plays a crucial role as Indian consumers increasingly seek maximum value for their money.

At the same time, global economic uncertainties have led to rising commodity prices and increased raw material costs, putting significant pressure on automobile manufacturers worldwide. Several brands have already announced price hikes this year as they attempt to offset increasing production and logistics expenses.

Industry experts also point to ongoing disruptions in global trade routes and supply chains, which have made importing certain raw materials more challenging and expensive. Additionally, rising fuel and transportation costs have further increased manufacturing and operational expenses across the automotive sector.

Hyundai is one of the few manufacturers with a presence across almost every segment of the Indian automobile market, ranging from entry-level hatchbacks and compact SUVs to premium SUVs and electric vehicles.
