Mercedes-Benz India on Friday said it will raise the ex-showroom prices of its entire range from January 1, 2025.

The price hike would be up to 3 per cent.

The company said: “The combination of rising input costs, inflation, and higher operational expenses has been exerting a considerable pressure on Mercedes-Benz India’s business operations.

“The company has been absorbing the rise in operational cost since the last three quarters and has now decided to raise prices.”

Although the company will continue to absorb the bulk of these costs, a nominal portion will be passed on to the market.

Prices of Mercedes-Benz cars will be revised by ₹2 lakh for the GLC to ₹9 lakh for the top-end Mercedes-Maybach S 680 luxury limousine.
