Following the Union Budget 2016, now Honda has also announced a price hike across its range in India. Effective from March 1, 2016, the levy of 'Infrastructure Cess' announced in Union Budget 2016 - 17 translates into an increase of up to Rs. 79,000 for Honda cars in India. One must note, Tata Motors, Hyundai and Maruti Suzuki have already announced a hike in the prices of their respective model range.
Other than the new Honda Amaze, whose prices were announced at its launch only last week, the rest of the line-up is now dearer by Rs. 5,000 - Rs. 79,000: with the most 'steeply' affected model being the Honda CR-V.
Watch: First Look: New Honda Amaze
| Model | Price Hike |
| Honda Brio | Rs. 4,000 - Rs. 6,000 |
| Honda Jazz | Rs. 5,000 - Rs. 19,500 |
| Honda Amaze | - |
| Honda City | Rs. 24,600 – Rs. 38,100 |
| Honda Mobilio | Rs. 21,800 - Rs. 37,700 |
| Honda CR-V | Rs. 66,500 - Rs. 79,000 |
While the introduction of infrastructure cess have led to a hike in the price of most cars in India, we believe this may act as the much needed push for carmakers to seriously consider addition of environment-friendly models in their respective line-ups. However, it is not just the manufacturers' onus: the government will need to work on sorting out several more details before green cars can become a reality in India.
