BYD India has announced a price revision across its electric passenger vehicle portfolio, citing sustained foreign exchange fluctuations as the primary reason for the increase. With hikes ranging between 1% and 2% depending on the model and variant.
To ease the transition for customers, the company confirmed that buyers who complete their bookings during May and June 2026 will continue to benefit from current pricing, provided vehicle deliveries are completed on or before July 31, 2026. Orders placed from July 1 onward will be subject to the updated prices.
Commenting on the decision, Rajeev Chauhan, Head of Electric Passenger Vehicles Business at BYD India, said the revision was necessary due to ongoing currency fluctuations. He emphasized that despite market challenges, the company remains committed to delivering premium electric mobility solutions featuring advanced technology, safety, and performance.
The announcement comes as BYD continues to witness strong demand for its electric vehicle lineup in India, particularly the BYD ATTO 3 premium SUV and the recently launched BYD SEALION 7. According to the company, growing consumer confidence in premium electric mobility has contributed to positive market reception for these models.
BYD attributes much of its success to its in-house technological innovations, including the Blade Battery, Cell-to-Body integration, and its 8-in-1 electric powertrain. These technologies are designed to enhance vehicle safety, improve driving range, optimize cabin space, and provide a connected driving experience.
Globally, BYD continues to strengthen its position as a leader in the new energy vehicle (NEV) sector. The company recently introduced its second-generation Blade Battery and advanced flash-charging technology, aimed at improving charging speeds, battery safety, energy efficiency, and overall vehicle performance.
In India, BYD has expanded its retail and service footprint to 48 dealerships across 40 cities, reflecting its focus on improving customer accessibility and ownership experience. The company is also growing its BYD Pioneers Club, a community platform that brings together customers and electric vehicle enthusiasts through events, drive experiences, and knowledge-sharing initiatives.
Established in India in 2007, BYD operates manufacturing facilities in Chennai and has invested more than $200 million in the country. Globally, the company sold over 4.6 million new energy vehicles in 2025, reinforcing its position as one of the world’s leading electric mobility brands.
The latest price revision highlights the impact of global currency movements on the automotive sector while underscoring BYD India’s continued focus on long-term growth and innovation in the country’s rapidly evolving EV market.
