Mercedes-Benz India has just revised the pricing for its E-Class sedan, one of its most popular luxury cars. The updated prices are already in effect, and while the changes don’t apply to every variant, they’re definitely worth noting if you’re in the market for this premium German offering.
Variants
The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is available in three main variants in India — the E200, E220d, and the 450 4Matic. Among these, only the E200 and E220d have seen a price hike. Each of these two variants now costs Rs. 1 lakh more than before.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the new pricing:
| Variant | Previous Price | New Price (Ex-showroom) |
|---|---|---|
| E200 | Rs. 78.50 lakh | Rs. 79.50 lakh |
| E220d | Rs. 81.50 lakh | Rs. 82.50 lakh |
| 450 4Matic | Rs. 92.50 lakh | Rs. 92.50 lakh (unchanged) |
If you’re eyeing the top-end 450 4Matic, the good news is that its price remains unchanged for now.
Engines
The E-Class offers a nice balance of options when it comes to powertrains. You get two petrol variants and one diesel option. For those preferring diesel, the E220d comes with a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder engine that produces 194bhp and 440Nm of torque — ideal for long-distance cruisers and efficiency lovers.
On the petrol side, there’s a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder unit under the hood of the E200. It makes 201bhp and 320Nm, delivering smooth and refined performance for daily drives and occasional highway runs. At the top of the performance pyramid is the E-Class 450 4Matic. This one houses a 3.0-litre, six-cylinder motor that churns out 375bhp and 500Nm — giving it the punch you’d expect from a high-end Mercedes.
All three variants come with a 48V mild-hybrid system for added efficiency and better performance. A nine-speed automatic gearbox is standard across the range, delivering seamless shifts and a smooth drive.
Impact
While a Rs. 1 lakh hike may not seem huge in the luxury car segment, it still changes the price positioning slightly. For buyers considering the E200 or E220d, this may prompt a reassessment of budgets, especially with rivals offering competitive features and pricing. That said, the E-Class remains a strong player in its segment, known for its comfort, performance, and brand value.
If you’re planning to make a move, now might be the right time to compare alternatives or maybe lock in your decision before another price revision sneaks in.
