The German carmaker achieved record-braking sales in the last year at 17,408 units and witnessed highest-ever production in its history.

According to Mercedes-Benz, these new offerings will comprise 50 per cent of new launches in the TEV (top-end vehicle) segment. Whereas, there will be three new all-electric cars coming to the country this year. We expect the brand to introduce updated GLA, refreshed Maybach GLS 600, CLE, new E-Class, GLB facelift, EQB facelifts, EQE saloon, EQS SUV, along with a handful of high-performance AMG versions should be in the pipeline.

Apart from that, Mercedes-Benz will invest Rs 200 crore in 2024 to manufacturing operations, new start-ups, and digitisation of the production process.
