Car maker Renault India plans to hike prices of its entire range of vehicles by up to 2.5 per cent from next month to partially offset the impact of rising input costs.

The increase will be up to 2.5 per cent and will be effective from January 1, 2015, the company said in a statement.

'So far we have absorbed the rising input costs, but a sustained challenging market environment has compelled us to increase our prices,' Renault India, Vice President, Sales and Marketing Rafael Treguer said.
