Honda Accord Hybrid Price Hiked in India: Honda launched the 9th generation Accord in India for INR 37 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) in October 2016. After just 14 months and due to uneven placement of hybrid cars, it is now placed at INR 43.21 lakh (Post-GST price). The increase is quite shocking as buyers now have a long list of fully equipped German as well as British sedans for this price tag. All this happened when hybrid cars were moved into regular tax brackets by the government.
