Mercedes-Benz Maybach GLS 600 price expectations
Mercedes-Benz Maybach GLS 600 SUV is, quite obviously, meant for the extremely affluent and buyers who are looking at pushing the luxury quotient offered by 'conventional' luxury SUV buyers. As such, while the GLS SUV is priced at ₹1.05 crore (ex-showroom), the Maybach GLS 600 SUV could well be priced three times higher.

The expected price of over ₹3 crore could also be because Mercedes-Benz is likely to drive in the Maybach GLS 600 SUV via the CBU route. As it isn't going to be a volume player, and obviously at that, it may not make sense to localize production in the country.

But the select units that do make it into the country will promise more luxury, even by Mercedes standards.
