Mercedes-Benz has come up with something special once again! This time the M-Class Grand Edition has hit the Indian market. Mercedes-Benz has launched it in two variants – Grand Sports & Grand Executive. The Sport Edition is priced at Rs. 54.11 Lakhs whereas the Executive Edition costs Rs. 47.91 lakhs (both ex-showroom Pune). Regal interiors and elegant exterior features at an attractive price point make the Grand edition special at the outset.

The German carmaker has come up with a few changes to the standard M-class which makes the Grand edition distinctive. In the Grand avatar, the M-class looks a touch- me-not beauty and more sporty. The company has redesigned the front end with slightly darkened headlamps and LED daytime driving lights incorporated with the front bumper. 19” alloy wheels in a 10-spoke design make the M-Class Grand Edition all the more special.

The interiors of this SUV model have been adorned using better quality material and a better visual and touch appeal. The two-tone color scheme of the interior, too, is something interesting and adds to the décor of the royal interiors. A special AMG ergonomic sports unit has been introduced in the steering wheel. The central console takes the beauty of the vehicle to the pinnacle with a Grand Edition Badge. The spare wheel gets a place in the boot of the car now. Mercedes-Benz expects that new variant of the M-Class will certainly be an irresistible temptation for the wider spectrum of SUV fans.

Following are the main attributes of the Grand Avatar which tempt the car lovers:

• Permanent four-wheel drive and 4ETS traction system
• Acceleration skid control (ASR)
• Downhill Speed Regulation
• Off-road ABS system
• Heated seats
• AIRMATIC air suspension
• Adaptive Damping System (ADS)
• PARKTRONIC & NECK-PRO

Dr. Wilfried Aulbur, Managing Director and CEO of Mercedes-Benz India said, “The M-Class has been a popular model series in India. The “Sports Edition” and the “Executive Edition” are very aggressively priced considering the loadings and features of this marquee. We are confident that customers who expect highest standards from their vehicles will find the M-Class a vehicle that exceeds their expectations- both on and off the road.”
