Chinese electric vehicle maker BYD India has announced a price hike across its electric passenger vehicle lineup starting July 1, 2026.
The company said prices of its EV models will increase by 1% to 2%, depending on the model and variant.
According to BYD India, the decision has been taken due to continued foreign exchange fluctuations.
Existing Prices Available for Limited Time
There is still some relief for buyers planning to purchase a BYD electric car soon.
The company said customers who book their vehicles during May and June 2026 can still avail of the current prices.
However, deliveries must be completed on or before July 31, 2026.
