BYD India will hike prices of its cars by up to Rs 1 lakh from May 1, 2026. Depending on the model, prices will go up by 2 to 3 percent, which translates to an increase of between Rs 50,000 and Rs 1 lakh. The turbulent conditions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz in the Middle East is a major factor behind BYD’s upcoming price hike. Meanwhile, Hyundai has also announced a price hike of up to 1 percent for May.
