While Toyota announced the price revision in the new year, nearly all carmakers declared price hikes for 2024 in December itself. Price hikes are rather common around the new year’s with manufacturers aiming to mitigate costs, especially after churning out discounts, offers, benefits and more around the festive season right before.
Toyota’s range starts from the Glanza hatchback, moving up with the Rumion, UC Hyryder, Innova Crysta, Innova Hycross, Hilux pick-up, Fortuner and Camry in the mass market space. The automaker also retails premium models like the Vellfire luxury van and Land Cruiser LC300.
