Hyundai India will increase prices of its popular Grand i10 hatchback from August 2018 onwards by 3 percent, citing a corresponding increase in input and material costs.
The Grand i10 currently retails from Rs 4.74 lakh to Rs 7.51 lakh. This increase will see prices rise by about Rs 14,000 to Rs 22,000, depending on the engine option and trim level. The car is available with a 83hp, 1.2-litre petrol engine and 75hp, 1.2-litre diesel engine. Both come mated to a five-speed manual transmission as standard though the petrol motor also gets the option of a four-speed torque converter automatic.
The Korean brand is gearing up to launch a new small hatchback that will sit under the Grand i10 in its line-up. The tall-boy hatchback, which will replace the now aging Eon, may be called the Santro, reviving the brand name of its first model made in India.
The Eon is currently priced between Rs 3.33 lakh and Rs 4.70 lakh. As the new hatchback is expected to carry a similar price tag, it could be that the increase in the Grand i10’s price would be to minimise overlap between the new Hyundai hatchback and the larger Grand i10.
