India’s largest luxury carmaker, Mercedes-Benz India, has today announced that the company will be increasing the prices of its entire model range by up to 3 per cent from April 1, 2022. As per the company, the constantly rising input costs is the primary reason for this price hike. It is worth mentioning that this will be the second price hike for Mercedes-Benz cars in India in 2022. The company increased the prices of its products in January as well.
“The constant increase in input costs in addition to an increase in logistics costs have been exerting significant pressure on the overall costs of the company. The rising input costs also led to a significant increase in the company’s operational costs, prompting Mercedes-Benz to revise the ex-showroom price of the entire model range in its endeavour to operate a sustainable and fundamentally strong business,” Mercedes-Benz India said in its official press statement.
Mercedes-Benz India has also revealed the new starting ex-showroom prices (valid from April 1, 2022) of its select cars. They are mentioned below:
