The diesel version is selling like hot cakes; it is extremely frugal and gives a stiff competition to other cars in its segment like Ford Figo and new Maruti Swift. Launched at an introductory price of Rs 4.29 lakh (e-showroom price), the company in the beginning of the year hiked the Chevrolet Beat diesel price by Rs 15,000, later as effect of the hike in cess levied on hatchbacks, the company further hiked the car prices across its range.
