We’re only halfway through 2021, and Maruti Suzuki models are set to get dearer for the third time. The carmaker has cited rising input costs as the reason behind it. While a specific deadline hasn’t been revealed, the carmaker has said it will happen in the third quarter of 2021. Basically somewhere in the period of July-September 2021. Here’s the current prices of the entire Maruti Suzuki lineup:

Model	Price Range (ex-showroom)
Alto 800	Rs 2.99 lakh to Rs 4.60 lakh
S-Presso	Rs 3.78 lakh to Rs 5.26 lakh
Eeco	Rs 4.08 lakh to Rs 5.29 lakh
Celerio	Rs 4.65 lakh to Rs 5.90 lakh
Celerio X	Rs 5.11 lakh to Rs 5.91 lakh
Wagon R	Rs 4.80 lakh to Rs 6.33 lakh
Swift	Rs 5.73 lakh to Rs 8.27 lakh
Dzire	Rs 5.98 lakh to Rs 9.02 lakh
Ertiga	Rs 7.81 lakh to Rs 10.59 lakh
Vitara Brezza	Rs 7.51 lakh to Rs 11.25 lakh
Ignis	Rs 4.95 lakh to Rs 7.36 lakh
Baleno	Rs 5.98 lakh to Rs 9.30 lakh
Ciaz	Rs 8.52 lakh to Rs 11.50 lakh
S-Cross	Rs 8.39 lakh to Rs 12.39 lakh
XL6	Rs 9.94 lakh to Rs 11.73 lakh

This will be the third time this year that the carmaker will be hiking prices after the previous hikes in April 2021 and January 2021. The effect of the price hike will depend on the model. Previously, the Arena range of models saw an increment of up to Rs 22,500, whereas the Nexa models carried a hike of up to Rs 20,000.

Aside from this, Maruti Suzuki is preparing to introduce the next-gen Alto and Celerio later this year, with the latter’s design being leaked via patent images. We’re also expected to see the much-awaited Jimny off-roader by 2022.
