Here’s What Company’s Top Official Says About Price Hike

While confirming the news, National Head (Sales and Marketing) at Kia

India, Hardeep Brar said that the steps have been taken amid the rise of production costs. He said there are a lot of car makers who have already hiked the price post-April. But, Kia was the only one that did not take that step. Now, the prices of raw materials are skyrocketing. So, the company had to take the decision, Brar added.
