Mercedes S-Class 2021 to launch today: Price expectations
Mercedes-Benz is all set to launch S-Class 2021 in India today in a bid to appeal to the pinnacle of luxury sedan buyers here. The S-Class has been at the top of the sedan pyramid for Mercedes in India and the latest edition, showcased for the global market back in September of 2020, has sought to push the boundary in terms of luxury on offer.
The S-Class is primarily a chauffer-driven vehicle and as such, much emphasis has always been on the space and technology on offer for passengers at the rear. That said, the Mercedes sedan promises to also be a capable vehicle if someone chooses to get behind the wheels.
The Launch Edition of S-Class being launched will be brought in via the CBU route.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2021 variants and colour options:
The latest S-Class from Mercedes-Benz in India will be made available in S 400d and S 450 variants. There would be five colour choices which include White, Black, Blue, Red and Green.
