Mercedes-Benz to increase car prices in India twice this year

Mercedes-Benz has announced another round of price hikes in India. The next round of price updates will take place in two stages — in June and September, respectively. The German marque admitted that the continued steep Forex rate increase to 10% over the last four months, have increased the cost of components and CBU products in its India lineup.

Although Mercedes-Benz claims to have absorbed this steep cost increase so far, it is now compelled to pass on minimal cost onto the market, to offset the impact on operational expenses and maintain business sustainability. The carmaker says that it continues to deepen its localization initiatives in India. 

The first stage of price update will take place on June 1 this year followed by the second phase starting on 1 September 2025. This two-phase price adjustment gives customers the opportunity to plan their purchases and financing options more effectively, helping them avoid a sudden and significant price increase driven by current market pricing challenges.

Effective 1 June 2025, the first stage of price update will result in the entry-level C200 becoming more expensive by Rs 90,000 whereas the flagship Maybach S680 will be dearer by Rs 12.20 lakh. The updated price list of Mercedes-Benz models is mentioned below.

The second phase, effective September 1, will introduce an additional price increase of up to 1.5 percent  across the entire portfolio. For popular models like the GLA and GLC, the company states that the monthly EMI rise will remain below Rs 2,000.
