Nissan to hike Micra, Sunny prices from Nov 1

Nissan Motor India on Tuesday said it will increase the prices of its hatchback Micra and midsize sedan Sunny with effect from November 1 to offset rising input and transportation costs.

Commenting on the proposed price increase, Hover Automotive India Director (Sales & Marketing) Nitish Tipnis, said:

"The prices are being revised to partially offset appreciation in input and transportation costs.

The hatchback Micra is currently priced between Rs 422,000 and Rs 642,000, while Sunny is available between Rs 593,000 and Rs 893,000 (ex-showroom Delhi).
