Mercedes sedans, SUVs and AMGs to cost more from April 1. Check new prices
Mercedes-Benz India has decided to increase prices of its models across the range available in the country. The German luxury carmaker has announced that it will increase prices by around three percent from next month. On Thursday, Mercedes-Benz India came out with a statement saying that the new prices will be implemented starting April 1. The reason behind the price hike is aimed to partially offset the impact of rise in input costs.
According to the statement by Mercedes-Benz India, the increase in the prices of its cars would go up by at least ₹50,000. The highest spike in price could go up to ₹5 lakh. The models that will be impacted due to the change in prices are the A-Class, E-Class and S-Class limousine, GLA, GLC and GLS, besides the AMG GT 63S 4-door coupe among others.
"The imminent price correction would be in the range of 3 per cent, across the entire model range. The constant increase in input costs in addition to an increase in logistics costs have been exerting significant pressure on the overall costs of the company," the Pune-based German luxury carmaker said in a statement today. It added that rising input costs has led to a significant increase in the company’s operational costs.

Martin Schwenk, MD and CEO at Mercedes-Benz India, said, "At Mercedes-Benz we continue to offer the most technologically advanced products for an unmatched product experience. However, to run a sustainable business a price correction is necessary to offset the continuous rise in input and operational costs."
