Mercedes-Benz Cars To Cost More From September

| Friday | 17th August, 2018

Summary: Mercedes-Benz India has announced that it will increase the prices of all its cars come September 1. The prices of the entire range will be increased by 4 per cent because of rising input costs, rising inflation and the weakening rupee. The rupee recently touched an all-time low of 70 per US dollar. Mercedes-Benz has also upwardly revised its finance rates, though it states that the rates are still quite competitive. Here’s how the prices of the range (excluding the AMG cars) will be affected: Model Old Price (ex-showroom Delhi) New Price (expected) A-Class Rs 29.90 lakh to Rs 30.94 lakh Rs 31.09 lakh to Rs 32.18 lakh B-Class Rs 31.99 lakh to Rs 33.03 lakh Rs 33.27 lakh to Rs 34.35 lakh CLA Rs 31.72 lakh to Rs 35.54 lakh Rs 32.99 lakh to Rs 36.96 lakh GLA Rs 32.33 lakh to Rs 38.64 lakh Rs 33.62 lakh to Rs 40.19 lakh C-Class Rs 42.54 lakh to Rs 46.87 lakh Rs 44.24 lakh to Rs 48.74 lakh GLC Rs 49.94 lakh to Rs 54.5 lakh Rs 51.94 lakh to Rs 56.68 lakh E-Class Rs 58.61 lakh to Rs 72.85 lakh Rs 60.96 lakh to Rs 75.77 lakh GLE Rs 66.49 lakh to Rs 77.41 lakh Rs 69.15 lakh to Rs 80.51 lakh GLS Rs 85.42 lakh to Rs 86.9 lakh Rs 88.84 lakh to Rs 90.38 lakh S-Class Rs 1.33 crore to Rs 1.37 crore Rs 1.38 crore to Rs 1.43 crore Maybach S-Class Rs 1.86 crore to Rs 2.73 crore Rs 1.94 crore to Rs 2.84 crore Will this increase in price put off buyers?
