Volvo Car India announced a price increase in the ex-showroom prices by up to 2 percent from January 1, 2024 onwards, on the back of rising input costs and volatile foreign exchange rates.

exchange rate fluctuations, and rising input costs. This move aims to maintain a
crucial balance, ensuring the continued delivery of high standards and best driving
experiences, reaffirming our commitment to uncompromised quality and safety” said Jyoti Malhotra, Managing Director, Volvo Car India.
Volvo’s Electric car range with C40 Recharge, XC40 Recharge and all other petrol
