Honda Car India has hiked the prices of its 2 biggest offerings in the country. The Honda City sedan and Elevate SUV are now dearer by Rs 20,000. These price hikes have been chalked up to the rise in input costs. However, this price hike does not apply to the manual variants of the Elevate. The automaker has also added a new Black Edition to the SUV’s lineup.
