I've seen some suggested retail pricing from $425 to €560, depending on local tariffs, fees, shipping, etc. If that holds, it's a pretty impressive spec for that kind of money.
Alas, when the HIT made its way through the modern-era supply chain and showed up in the NA market, it was a six-speed, did not have generator/dynamo/magneto lighting, and was ~$600.
