According to Y.V.S. Vijay Kumar (Executive Vice- President, Hindustan Motors), "In the last year and a half, the Yen has appreciated 40 per cent against the rupee. This, combined with the appreciation of the US dollar, has come as a double whammy for us".
According to the new price list Outlander and Pajero from the SUV segment bare the additional cost of Rs 1 lakh. All new Montero, a premium SUV price would also go higher as it comes to India as a completely built unit.
Mitsubishi Cedia will be costlier by Rs 50,000 and Lancer by Rs 40,000. There is also possibility of Montero being assembled at its Chennai plant.
