Mercedes-Benz launches A-Class Limousine

Mumbai: German luxury carmaker Mercedes-Benz on Thursday launched the much-awaited A-Class Limousine in India at an introductory price of Rs 39.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Both petrol and diesel variants have been launched. The A-Class sedan had made its debut at the Auto Expo in Greater Noida last year.

In addition, the carmaker rolled-out the locally produced AMG A35 4MATIC priced at Rs 56.24 lakh (ex-showroom India). "We are glad to introduce the highly anticipated A Class Limousine in the Indian market. The A-Class Limousine imbibes all that is core to a Mercedes-Benz product. We are confident the A Class Limo will set a new benchmark in the segment and attract a lot of new customers," said Martin Schwenk, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Mercedes-Benz India. The A-Class also comes with hassle-free ownership experience driven by industry first eight years warranty on engine and transmission, Schwenk said.

"We are equally thrilled to roll-out the first-ever 'AMG 35 series' for the Indian market with the AMG A 35 4MATIC. This is also the second AMG model we are locally manufacturing from our production facility, underlining our growing focus on the AMG brand in India and our long-term commitment to our AMG customers," he said. "We want the AMG brand to play an even larger role in our overall product offering in India. With as many as seven new AMGs planned this year, we are strongly placed to maintain our firm leadership in the performance motoring segment in India," he added.
