Mercedes-Benz India Announces 3% Price Hike Across Lineup From January 1

Mercedes-Benz India has become the first automaker to announce price hikes across its lineup for 2025. In its statement, the manufacturer said that it will increase the ex-showroom prices of its entire portfolio by three per cent, applicable from January 1, 2025. Similar to last year, the manufacturer cited rising input costs, inflation, and higher operational expenses as the reason behind this decision. As is customary at the start of the year, expect other car manufacturers to follow suit in the coming months, and introduce price hikes across their vehicle ranges.
