Audi vehicles will become more costly as of this date: This is why, and how much of it

Across the board, Audi India has announced price increases for its vehicles of up to 2%. The revised rates will go into effect on June 1, 2024. The German luxury automaker claims that growing input and shipping expenses are to blame for the price hike.

Mr. Balbir Singh Dhillon, Head of Audi India, made the announcement of the price rise, saying, “Rising input costs are compelling us to increase prices by up to 2% effective June 1, 2024.”

The goal of the pricing adjustment is to guarantee Audi India’s and our dealer partners’ steady development. As usual, we strive to minimize the negative effects of growing expenses for our clients.
