Mahindra and Mahindra has announced that it will increase prices of its SUVs and commercial vehicles from April 6, 2026. The move will increase by up to 2.5 per cent on select models, while the overall average hike across the portfolio stands at around 1.6 per cent.
The carmaker has attributed its latest price revision to rising input costs and higher operating expenses, stating that the increase is necessary despite having partially absorbed the impact. The revised pricing will apply across a significant portion of its portfolio, including internal combustion engine (ICE) SUVs and commercial vehicles. The newly launched Mahindra XUV7XO will remain exempt from the price increase for now, with the first 40,000 bookings protected, and revised prices to apply only after these deliveries are completed.Customers are advised to contact authorised dealerships to check availability, waiting periods and billing timelines, and to confirm whether new bookings will be billed at existing or revised rates. With waiting periods for some models running into months, clarity on price protection at the time of booking remains important.
