PUNE :

India’s largest luxury carmaker Mercedes-Benz India today, introduced the much-awaited iconic SUV, the G-Class, for the Indian market. The G-Class 400d is launched in two attractive variants, G 400d Adventure Edition, and the sporty G 400d AMG Line. The company also commenced the booking of the G 400d and deliveries of the vehicle will begin from Q4 this year. Deliveries will be based on exclusive allocations for the Indian market owing to the high demand for this iconic off-roader.

The G 400d Adventure Edition is a ‘special edition’ configured especially for the Indian market, while the G 400d AMG Line makes the timeless off-roader, sporty, and lifestyle vehicle. Customers can avail either of the models with a booking amount of INR 1.5 Lakhs.

Mercedes-Benz India’s TEV (Top-End Vehicle) segment witnessed a strong 107% growth in Q1 2023. This segment also remained Mercedes-Benz India’s highest-growing segment in CY 2022, with a 69% Y-o-Y growth.

The TEVs remain a key focus area for the company, with more than half of the upcoming launches in 2023 planned from this segment. The addition of the G 400d further enhances Mercedes-Benz’s desirable TEV portfolio for the Indian market.

“We’ve launched the G 400d in two distinct lifestyle and adventure avatars, adding to the appeal of this iconic vehicle. The India-specific G 400d ‘Adventure Edition’ is meant for adventure enthusiasts, capable of going anywhere, being at home on any city tarmac through to the extreme terrains of the rugged Himalayas. This vehicle inspires customers to go off-roading, explore all four corners of India and anywhere in between. For those that prefer a sporty and athletic appearance, we have the ‘AMG Line’ which is distinguished by the unique AMG exterior styling and AMG multi-spoke alloy wheels. The ‘AMG Line’ remains equally capable on or off-road whilst making a powerful style statement for lifestyle aficionados,” said Lance Bennett, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Mercedes-Benz India.
