BYD India has officially implemented a price revision across its electric passenger vehicle lineup, effective July 1, 2026. Price tags for select models have increased by Rs 50,000 to Rs 1,00,000, aligning with a broader trend of price hikes across the Indian automotive industry.
Key Highlights of the Price Revision
-
Affected Models: The price hike impacts specific variants of the BYD Atto 3, BYD Seal, and the newly launched BYD Sealion 7.
-
Price Increase Range: Prices have gone up by Rs 50,000 to Rs 1,00,000 depending on the model and variant.
-
Models Spared: Certain variants of the Atto 3 and the BYD eMAX 7 remain unaffected by this upward revision.
According to the automaker, the adjustments are a direct response to rising input costs, ongoing inflationary pressures, and continuous investments toward expanding their service network and technology offerings in India.
“As we continue to invest in technology, customer experience, and network expansion, we have implemented a price revision on a few variants in our range.” — Rajeev Chauhan, Head of Electric Passenger Vehicles (EPV) Business, BYD India

Key Upgrade: Features an upgraded, larger 71.8 kWh battery pack designed to offer enhanced range and value.
A Broader Industry Trend
BYD is far from alone in adjusting its prices this season. The move mirrors recent decisions by several major automakers in India—including Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, Kia India, and Mercedes-Benz—who have all bumped up prices citing similar economic and supply chain pressures.
