Mexico’s consumer price growth quickened in March 2026, with the Month-over-Month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.86%, up from a 0.50% increase in February 2026. The latest data, updated on 09 April 2026, point to a noticeable acceleration in short-term inflationary pressures.
The March reading means that price growth in Mexico accelerated compared with the previous month, when February’s 0.50% rise reflected a more moderate pace versus January. Under the Month-over-Month comparison, the current figure measures the change in prices during March relative to February, while the previous indicator captures February’s change relative to January. The pick-up in March will likely draw attention from investors and policymakers watching for signs of inflation momentum in Latin America’s second-largest economy.
