Mercedes roars again, to launch AMG C 63 Coupe and AMG GT R on May 27
Just days after announcing that it has gradually resumed operations at its manufacturing facility in Chakan near Pune, Mercedes-Benz India on Friday announced that it will drive in two AMG models in one go, on May 27. The digital launch of AMG C 63 Coupe and AMG GT R is being projected as a statement of intent from the German luxury car maker after weeks of lockdown has cast a gloom on the Indian auto industry as a whole.
While there have been some indications that the luxury car market could especially take a hit in the times to come, there appears no stopping Mercedes as it looks at strengthening its already robust product portfolio with more options from the AMG line.
