Mercedes-Benz has finally brought the CLA EV to India, and this one feels like a big shift in its entry line-up. Priced from Rs 55 lakh (ex-showroom), the CLA EV now takes over as the brand’s most accessible model here, effectively replacing the A-Class Limousine, EQA and EQB. What makes this launch important is simple, the CLA is now fully electric for the first time in India. You get two versions, the 200 Standard Range and the 250+ Long Range at Rs 59 lakh, along with a Launch Edition at Rs 64 lakh with 19-inch wheels and a black and gold finish.<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV: Design</h2>On the outside, it still looks every bit a CLA, low, sleek and coupe-like, but now with a sharper EV identity. The drag coefficient of 0.21 is not just a number, it directly helps improve range and efficiency. The car is slightly larger than before, yet it feels tighter in how it cuts through air. The sloping roofline and frameless doors remain, keeping that familiar coupe silhouette intact.<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-Rear-View-1776335247708.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-Rear-View.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">What stands out instantly is the lighting setup. The three-pointed star theme runs across the car, including a front panel with 142 illuminated stars that grab attention at night. The 250+ variant brings the AMG Line package, adding revised bumpers and 18-inch aero wheels. It looks clean and purposeful, without trying too hard, which works well for a car in this segment.<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV: Interior</h2>Inside, the wide dashboard packs a 14-inch touchscreen and a 10.25-inch driver display, both easy to read and use on the move. The illuminated star pattern on the passenger side adds a unique touch. It is not just about design, it gives the cabin a distinct identity, especially during night drives.<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation-1776335226008.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">The AMG Line trim brings a flat-bottom steering wheel, metal pedals and sport seats, giving the cabin a slightly driver-focused feel. Practicality still holds up, with a 405-litre boot and a 101-litre frunk adding useful storage. For a car with this shape, it manages space well, which matters if you plan to use it as a daily driver.The feature list feels complete without being excessive. You get powered front seats with heating and massage, dual-zone climate control, ambient lighting and a panoramic glass roof. A Burmester 3D sound system and wireless charging are also included. Everything works as expected, and more importantly, it feels easy to live with on a daily basis.
 
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-Rear-Seat-1776335254589.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-Rear-Seat.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">Safety includes six airbags, a 360-degree camera and auto park assist. It also gets Level 2+ ADAS, which can take over some driving tasks in traffic or on highways. Mercedes-Benz has also worked on the suspension and ground clearance for Indian roads. That should help the CLA EV handle rough patches and speed breakers without constant concern.<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV: Powertrain</h2>Now to the important bit. The 200 Standard Range uses a 58kWh battery with 221bhp and 335Nm. It delivers a claimed range of 542km and manages 0 to 100km/h in 7.5 seconds. The 250+ Long Range moves to an 85kWh battery with 268bhp, keeping torque unchanged, but improving both performance and overall driving range.

Both variants use a two-speed gearbox, something you do not usually see in EVs. With an 800V system, fast charging goes up to 320kW, allowing a claimed 300km range top-up in just 10 minutes, making long-distance use more practical.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/mercedes-benz-a-class-first-drive-impressions-bringing-the-a-game-123332/">Mercedes-Benz CLA EV First Drive Impressions - Bringing the A-Game</a>At this price point, the CLA EV goes up against the BYD Seal. It brings a mix of long range, quick charging and a familiar badge. For buyers looking to move into a premium electric sedan, this could be one of the more relevant options currently available in the Indian market.

New Mercedes-Benz CLA EV Launched at Rs 55 Lakh; Claims 762km Range

Mercedes-Benz CLA EV offers up to 268bhp, an 85kWh battery, 792km range, and 320kW fast charging with a 300km top-up in 10 minutes for long-distance driving.

The new <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mercedes-benz/c-class/">Mercedes-Benz C-Class </a>EV is one of the biggest reveals from the brand in recent years. The C-Class has always been one of Mercedes-Benz's most important models, but now it has gone fully electric for the first time. Unlike some EVs that are based on petrol car platforms, this one has been developed from scratch as an electric sedan. That means more space inside, better packaging and more advanced tech. It will go on sale in the US first, but this new EV is clearly being positioned as a global model for the future.<h2>New Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV: Design</h2>The electric C-Class moves away from the upright proportions of the combustion model, adopting a lower, more streamlined body with a sloping roofline that flows into a fastback-style tail. At the front, the car is distinguished by an illuminated grille bearing the Mercedes star, paired with LED headlamps that incorporate star-shaped daytime running light elements. Similar lighting details are already seen on models like the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mercedes-benz/s-class/">Mercedes-Benz S-Class</a>, Mercedes-Benz CLA and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mercedes-benz/eqs/">Mercedes-Benz EQS</a>.

Mercedes says the drag coefficient is just 0.22, which should help the car cut through the air more efficiently and improve range.<h2>New Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV: Interior</h2>Inside, the first thing you notice is the 39.1-inch MBUX Hyperscreen stretching across the dashboard. It gives the cabin a proper concept-car feel, but there is plenty of functionality behind it too. The system runs on Mercedes' new MB.OS software and supports over-the-air updates.<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-EV-Interior-1776426076246.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV Interior.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">There is also an AI-based voice assistant that uses ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Microsoft Bing for more natural voice interactions. Mercedes has also added features like a panoramic glass roof, ambient lighting, ventilated and massage seats, and more rear seat space thanks to the longer wheelbase.<h2>New Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV: Powertrain</h2>The headline numbers are impressive. The top-spec Mercedes-Benz C 400 4MATIC gets a 94kWh battery pack, dual motors and 360kW of power. Mercedes claims a 0-100km/h time of 4.0 seconds and a WLTP range of up to 762km, which puts it right up there with some of the longest-range EVs in its class. 
 
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/New-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-Side-1776691638227.webp" alt="New Mercedes-Benz C-Class Side.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">It also gets an 800V electrical setup and a two-speed transmission on the rear axle, with one gear focused on strong acceleration and the other tuned for efficiency at motorway speeds. The front motor can even disconnect during cruising to reduce drag and save energy.
 
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/New-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-Action-Shot-1776691633837.webp" alt="New Mercedes-Benz C-Class Action Shot.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">Mercedes has also loaded the electric C-Class with plenty of hardware worth noting. DC fast charging speeds of up to 330kW mean the car can replenish up to 325km of range in just 10 minutes under WLTP conditions. Buyers can also spec features like AIRMATIC suspension, adaptive dampers and rear-wheel steering, which cuts the turning circle down to 11.2 metres.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/mercedes-benz-a-class-first-drive-impressions-bringing-the-a-game-123332/">Mercedes-Benz A-Class EV First Drive Impressions - Bringing the A-Game</a>There is also a 470-litre boot, a 101-litre front trunk and a towing capacity of up to 1.8 tonnes. Mercedes has already confirmed that a rear-wheel-drive version with around 800km of claimed range is on the way as well.

New Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV Revealed with Up to 762km Claimed Range

New Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV gets a sleek coupe-like design, Hyperscreen dashboard, AI tech and star-shaped lighting details.

Subtlety clearly wasn’t part of the brief when Mercedes designed the new CLA EV. To say that it looks over-the-top wouldn’t be an understatement. Look at that front grille – it alone packs 142 LEDs! Bright enough to rival a busy street in Old Delhi on Diwali eve, isn’t it?

There was a time when Mercedes was all about class and elegance, but now it’s all about being loud and shouty. Has Mercedes lost the way? What’s wrong?You see, there is a solid reason behind all of this. Mercedes isn’t really catering to the dinosaurs of society anymore, especially with its entry-level cars. The focus now is on a younger audience. According to Mercedes, India is on the ‘cusp of an unprecedented intergenerational wealth transfer’, with roughly $1.5 trillion expected to change hands over the next decade. And the new rich aren’t old-school industrialists; they are startup founders, tech bosses, and NRIs. In short, a young and ambitious demographic. Want some more proof? The so-called Gen-Z alone accounted for 43% of consumption in 2025. So, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out which way the wind is blowing, and Mercedes is simply following suit. And this shift is now most apparent in the technology on offer in the new CLA.

 
 
 
 


<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV Interior, Features &amp; AI tech</h2>

Mercedes claims the new CLA has the processing power of four supercomputers. Plus, it’s also the first Mercedes to feature the new MB.OS operating system, the MBUX virtual assistant, and AI integrations, including ChatGPT and Google Gemini. It all makes sense because, as per Mercedes, around 82% of Gen Z today actively use AI tools. However, despite being tailored to Gen Z needs, the cabin actually feels like a typical Mercedes-Benz.
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-Electric-Interior-1773120132042.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA Electric Interior.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 The dashboard is a tech fest, dominated by a 14-inch touchscreen infotainment and a 10-inch digital driver display. The AC vents are, again, quite neat, and you have a haptic touch panel for your volume adjustment and ‘Dynamic Select’, which controls the driving modes. You also get parking cameras all around, plus it gets a heck of a lot of sensors for its ADAS functions. Overall, the cabin oozes high quality. However, that’s not to say that everything is perfect here. The plastic quality definitely leaves you wanting more. For example, the buttons around the cup holder are a little too flimsy for a Rs 60-lakh car. Similarly, the plastic in the lower half of the dashboard is scratchy, and it’s not particularly high-quality.I love the front seats for they are body-hugging AMG-esque sport units, and even in terms of ergonomics, they are spot-on. There’s no seat ventilation, though they get heating functionality. Strange. Plus, there’s a large moonroof but no sunshade, so it gets quite warm inside on a hot day, even when the AC is on full blast.
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-Rear-Seat-1776335254589.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-Rear-Seat.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 The CLA has four seats, but it’s not a four-seater per se. Legroom is just about adequate, but since you sit with your knees pointing up, it’s not the most comfortable rear bench.

 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV Battery, Performance &amp; Range</h2>

If there’s one area where the CLA EV doesn’t feel all that Gen Z, it’s in terms of driving experience, which is to say that it doesn’t feel numb or detached from behind the wheel. The CLA 250+ on test here gets an 85.5kWh battery pack, which powers a rear-axle motor rated at 268bhp. Merc says it can clock 0-100km/h in 6.7 seconds. Not earth-shattering, but it’s quick by EV standards. What stands out the most is the power delivery – it’s measured and linear. Instantaneous, but not violent. In most EVs, stepping on the throttle is like an on-off affair, but here it’s progressive and fluid.
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-side-profile-dynamic-1776335236480.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-side-profile-dynamic.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 And then there’s the grip. There’s plenty of it. Plus, it’s driven from the rear wheels, so there’s a bit of playful adjustability on offer. One thing I do miss, though, is manual control via steering paddles for regen modes. It does have adaptive regen and one-pedal driving, but I would have preferred paddle shifters for a more engaging feel.

<h2>CLA EV Ride, Handling &amp; Driving Experience</h2>

The most impressive bit has to be the refinement. Sure, all EVs are quiet, but this one isolates you from virtually every noise from the outside world – the insulation is simply phenomenal. 
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-Rear-View-1776335247708.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-Rear-View.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 The icing on the cake is its ride quality. The suspension has been tuned for Indian conditions, and it glides over bumps and bad roads with aplomb. You barely feel any surface imperfection filter into the cabin. The only time you feel slight discomfort is over sharp bumps, as the suspension produces a loud thud. However, 95% of the time during the drive, the CLA tackled the bad, broken roads around Nandi Hills without much trouble. The ground clearance has also been increased in the India-spec model, and during my time with the CLA, it didn’t scrape its underbelly anywhere.
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation-1776335226008.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-View-Of-Steering-Console-And-Instrumentation.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 

Now, one interesting bit about the CLA EV is that it comes with a two-speed gearbox. That means at low speeds, it runs a shorter ratio, and at highway speeds, it shifts to a taller one. This reduces strain on the motor and improves efficiency. We’ve seen similar setups in cars like the Porsche Taycan and Audi e-tron GT. That’s also the reason behind its spectacular claimed range of 793km! It will be lower than that in the real world, no doubt, but you can still expect it to be around 600–650km, which is phenomenal.

<h2>Mercedes-Benz CLA EV Verdict: Should You Buy It?</h2>

Ultimately, the new CLA is not meant for purists. It’s aimed at the next generation, which cares more about the size of the screens than what’s under the bonnet.
 <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-EV-Badge-1776335261578.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA EV-Badge.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
 </div>
 And in that sense, it is virtually perfect. Big screens, AI, electric mobility, strong range, and that unmistakable Mercedes badge, plus plenty of bling. So, has Mercedes really lost the way? I don’t think so. Because it’s not Mercedes dictating the terms anymore, it’s the next generation leading the charge for the future of mobility.<iframe width="1440" height="489" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vbR26mCuLWg" title="Here’s What’s Wrong with Mercedes-Benz in 2026…(&amp; Why?) ft.

Mercedes-Benz CLA EV First Drive Impressions - Bringing the A-Game

Mercedes’ new CLA EV bets big on tech, AI, and style to woo Gen Z. A step in the right direction, or have they messed it all up? 

Mercedes-Benz has revealed the interior of the upcoming Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV before its global debut on 20 April, and the cabin looks like a major step forward for the brand’s next-generation EVs. Like the GLC EV, the new C-Class EV gets a full-width digital dashboard, but Mercedes has gone a step further here with more premium materials, extra lighting features, and a bigger focus on comfort. The biggest highlight is the huge 39.1-inch Hyperscreen, which dominates the dashboard and gives the cabin a futuristic feel that is more concept car than regular executive saloon.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/2027-mercedes-benz-eqs-revealed-globally-with-new-electric-architecture-123307/">2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS Revealed Globally With New Electric Architecture</a>The dashboard is clearly the centrepiece of the new C-Class EV interior. Mercedes-Benz has fitted a 39.1-inch Hyperscreen that combines multiple displays under one large glass panel. Buyers will also have the option of a Superscreen setup, which uses three separate displays hidden beneath one seamless surface. There are barely any physical buttons left, with most controls now integrated into the touchscreen system, giving the cabin a cleaner and more modern layout.Mercedes-Benz has also gone heavy on visual drama inside the cabin. The optional panoramic glass roof comes with 162 illuminated stars built into it, and these lights work together with the ambient lighting system spread across the dashboard and doors. Depending on the variant, buyers will be able to choose from metal, wood, or carbon fibre trim finishes. Upholstery options will include Nappa leather with a diamond pattern as well as vegan leather alternatives.Comfort seems to be a big part of the package as well. The front sports seats come with memory, cooling, and massage functions, which should make long highway drives much easier. Mercedes-Benz has also introduced a new climate control system that has been designed to work more efficiently in an EV. To keep the cabin quiet, the car gets better sound insulation, laminated safety glass, elastomer mounts, and aero-focused body design elements to reduce outside noise and vibrations.The new C-Class EV shares its platform with the GLC EV, which means both models will have similar cabin space and overall layout. Mercedes-Benz has not yet revealed details about the battery, range, or performance figures of the electric sedan. Those details will be announced when the car makes its official debut in South Korea on 20 April.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV Interior Revealed; Gets Massive 39.1-inch Display

The upcoming Mercedes-Benz C-Class EV interior will get a 39.1-inch Hyperscreen, star-lit roof, massage seats, and ambient lighting.

The 2027 <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mercedes-benz/">Mercedes-Benz </a>EQS is finally out, and this one is more than a routine update. Mercedes has moved the EQS to a new 800-volt architecture, replacing the older 400-volt setup, and that changes how this car charges, drives, and manages efficiency. The update spans the EQS 450+, EQS 500 4Matic, and EQS 580 4Matic. Battery capacity is now up to 122 kWh usable, and global sales are set to begin in the second half of 2026.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/industry-news/mercedes-benz-india-records-highest-ever-fiscal-sales-of-19363-units-in-fy26-123294/">Mercedes-Benz India Records Highest-Ever Fiscal Sales Of 19,363 Units In FY26</a>More than 25 per cent of the car is new or updated. Here is a closer look.<h2>2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS: Design</h2>The design tweaks are not loud, but they do enough to freshen things up. Up front, you now get a black grille panel with a backlit star pattern and chrome slats, which gives it a more defined face. The bonnet gets raised strakes, and the Digital Light headlamps now show a star-shaped DRL signature.
 
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/2027-Mercedes-Benz-EQS-rear-1776147347981.webp" alt="2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS rear.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">Move to the rear, and the helix-style LED taillights stand out, along with a larger diffuser. AMG Line cars skip the chrome slats and get an illuminated central star instead.<h2>2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS: Interior and Features</h2>Inside, the big 55-inch MBUX Hyperscreen still dominates the dashboard, housing three displays under a single glass panel. Rear passengers now get a larger 13.1-inch screen, up from 11.6 inches, plus two remote controls. Mercedes has added heated seatbelts and rear-seat airbags as well. Everything runs on the new MB.OS, which improves response times for navigation and AI-based functions.<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/2027-Mercedes-Benz-EQS-Interior-1776147351710.webp" alt="2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS Interior.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">The tech story goes deeper with the new steer-by-wire system. There is no physical connection between the steering wheel and the front wheels now. Instead, you get a yoke-style steering wheel with just 170 degrees of rotation, so tight turns do not need hand-over-hand inputs. Rear-axle steering goes up to 10 degrees, and there are 27 sensors and cameras working in the background to handle obstacle avoidance. It also uses adaptive damping with Car-to-X communication to read the road ahead.<h2>2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS: Powertrain</h2>The EQS now uses in-house electric motors along with a new two-speed transmission on the rear axle to improve efficiency at higher speeds. On 4Matic versions, the front motor can disconnect completely when not needed, helping save energy. The claimed EPA range for the entry-level EQS 450+ stands at 926km. With the 800-volt setup, fast charging goes up to 350kW, and regenerative braking is rated at 385kW.<img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/2027-Mercedes-Benz-EQS-Powertrain-1776147355623.webp" alt="2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS Powertrain.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">To round things off, the battery pack on the 2027 <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mercedes-benz/eqs/">Mercedes-Benz EQS </a>has grown from 118kWh to 122kWh, and that brings a clear boost in usability. It now supports up to 350kW DC fast charging, a big step up from the earlier 200kW figures. Mercedes has also worked on the battery chemistry, improving power density, which should help with both performance and overall efficiency in real-world driving.

2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS Revealed Globally With New Electric Architecture

The 2027 Mercedes-Benz EQS gets a new 800V architecture, a larger 122kWh battery, and new electric motors, improving charging speed, efficiency, and range.

Mercedes-Benz India has had its strongest year yet in the country, clocking 19,363 retail sales in FY2025-26 and setting a new all-time record for the brand here. That is a 2.3 per cent rise over last year’s 18,928-unit tally, and it shows the three-pointed star still has serious momentum in India’s luxury car space. The company also carried that pace into the opening quarter of 2026, posting 5,131 sales between January and March, up 7 per cent year-on-year. Simply put, buyers continue to line up for everything from executive sedans and SUVs to AMG performance machines and high-end EVs.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/2027-mercedes-benz-gle-suv-breaks-cover-globally-india-launch-expected-next-year-123237/">2027 Mercedes-Benz GLE SUV Breaks Cover Globally; India Launch Expected Next Year</a>Much of that growth came from Mercedes-Benz’s top-end luxury models, and honestly, that is where the real action is. Cars like the S-Class, Maybach range and AMG models helped this segment grow 16 per cent in FY26, accounting for 27 per cent of the brand’s total sales. Demand remains so strong that waiting periods for the AMG G 63 and Maybach S-Class currently stretch from four months to as much as a year.The brand’s bread-and-butter models also continued to deliver solid numbers. The C-Class, E-Class, GLC and GLE remained key contributors, with the long-wheelbase E-Class once again holding its spot as India’s highest-selling luxury sedan. At the same time, entry-level luxury offerings saw sales drop 18 per cent, reflecting Mercedes-Benz India’s strategy of prioritising premium positioning over chasing volume at the lower end.
 
 <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Mercedes-Benz-CLA-Electric-250+-1773119734877.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz CLA Electric 250+.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">Mercedes-Benz’s electric vehicle push is also starting to gather pace. EVs accounted for 20 per cent of top-end luxury sales during FY26, showing that buyers in this bracket are warming up to battery-powered luxury. Demand for models priced above Rs 1.4 crore jumped 85 per cent, with the EQS SUV emerging as a major contributor. The upcoming CLA electric sedan, due in April 2026, should only add more momentum to the EV side of the business.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mercedes-amg-gle-coupe-performance-edition-launched-in-india-at-rs-152-crore-123292/">Mercedes-AMG GLE Coupe Performance Edition Launched in India at Rs 1.52 Crore</a>To support future growth, Mercedes-Benz India plans to open more than 20 new outlets across the country in 2026. The expansion will include newer markets such as Visakhapatnam, Varanasi and Goa, while metro hubs like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR and Bengaluru will also see network upgrades. Franchise partners are set to invest over Rs 450 crore in the next two years, while the company continues to widen its AMG range with additions like the AMG A 45 S Aero Track Edition and AMG GLE 53 Coupe Performance Edition.

Mercedes-Benz India Records Highest-Ever Fiscal Sales Of 19,363 Units In FY26

Mercedes-Benz India posts record FY26 sales with strong demand for AMG, Maybach and EVs, while expanding dealerships and premium luxury car offerings across India.

Mercedes-Benz has taken the wraps off the 2027 GLE, and this update brings meaningful changes across the board. The SUV now looks sharper, packs better tech inside, and moves towards electrification with updated hybrid systems. What stands out is that Mercedes hasn’t gone overboard with changes but has refined the GLE in areas that matter for daily driving and performance.

The new Mercedes-Benz CLA EV marks a major shift in how the brand is approaching its entry-level luxury cars.Gone is the understated design language that defined Mercedes for decades. In its place is a far more expressive, technology-heavy approach - illuminated grilles, massive screens, AI integrations, and an unmistakably digital-first cabin experience. But this change hasn’t happened by accident. Mercedes says a massive intergenerational wealth transfer is underway globally, with younger buyers - particularly startup founders, tech professionals, and entrepreneurs - emerging as the next wave of luxury car customers. Naturally, their expectations of a car are very different.The new CLA EV reflects that shift. It introduces Mercedes’ new MBOS operating system, AI-driven MBUX virtual assistant, deep integration with tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini, and one of the longest claimed driving ranges in its class.So, is Mercedes abandoning its traditional values of elegance and subtlety? Or is the brand simply evolving to match the expectations of the next generation? Shivank gets behind the wheel of the new CLA EV around Nandi Hills to find out.

Mercedes-Benz India will increase prices across its full model line-up from 1 April 2026. The company says the hike will be up to 2 per cent, depending on the model and variant. So, if you have been planning to buy a new Mercedes-Benz, this is worth noting because current prices will stay valid only till 31 March 2026 for bookings and deliveries completed within that period. The brand says the price revision is due to rising input costs and changing operational expenses. Mercedes-Benz has been absorbing some of that pressure, but it has now decided to pass on a part of the increase to customers. According to the company, this step is needed to support the business in the long run and maintain its service standards.Also Read:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/mercedes-benz-vle-debuts-with-313-inch-8k-foldable-display-over-700-km-range-and-more-123089/">Mercedes-Benz VLE Debuts with 31.3-Inch 8K Foldable Display, Over 700 Km Range, and More</a>This change will cover the entire Mercedes-Benz range in India, right from the entry-level luxury sedans to the top SUVs. The exact increase will differ across models and variants, but the company has confirmed that the maximum hike will be capped at 2 per cent. Detailed updated prices for each model are expected to reach dealerships in the coming weeks.

Mercedes-Benz has confirmed that the existing prices will apply to all bookings and deliveries completed by 31 March 2026. That gives customers a chance to lock in the current rates before the new pricing comes into effect from the next financial year.
