Honda Cars India has announced that starting from June, it will be increasing the prices of its sedans City and Amaze by a maximum of one percent in response to rising cost pressures. The price hike is intended to counterbalance the impact of these increased costs.

In a statement, Kunal Behl, Vice President (Sales and Marketing) of Honda Cars India,"While our endeavour is to partially offset the increase, it has become imperative to pass on some of the impact. We have planned to increase prices for City and Amaze up to 1 per cent from June which shall vary across variants."

The current pricing for the Amaze sedan ranges from 6.99 lakh to 9.6 lakh, while the City sedan, including its strong hybrid trims, is priced between 11.55 lakh and 20.39 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The upcoming price hike will not affect the strong hybrid trims of the mid-sized sedan.

Meanwhile, Honda India Cars confirmed the launch date of its latest SUV. The car manufacturer will unveil the Honda Elevate SUV on June 6, 2023. Honda has released a teaser image of the upcoming SUV via a Twitter post which shows its sharp design.

“Witness the #WorldPremiere of the most awaited SUV, the all-new Honda Elevate on June 06, 2023. Mark your calendar for the big unveil!," the post reads.

Honda Elevate SUV will compete against the likes of Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara. The SUV’s name was announced by the company earlier this month.

The company earlier said, “Honda Elevate has been developed as a new global model in Honda’s line-up to cater to the robust demand for SUVs world-wide. The new model incorporates people’s lifestyle requirements and their expectations for Honda’s New SUV. India will be the first market to launch the Honda Elevate."

In the tease image, one can see that there will be no panoramic sunroof on the Honda Elevate SUV. The image also shows body coloured outside rear view mirror (ORVM) and shark-fin antenna among others.
