Luxury carmaker Mercedes-Benz India on Friday (2) launched two seven seater sports utility vehicles — GLB and EQB — in the country priced between Rs 63.8 lakh (£63,862) and Rs 74.5 lakh (£74,573) (ex-showroom).
The three trims of the GLB range are priced at Rs 63.8 lakh, Rs 66.8 lakh (£66,865) and Rs 69.8 lakh (£68,868), respectively.
The full electric EQB 300 4MATIC is tagged at Rs 74.5 lakh.
“Both these SUVs are highly versatile, spacious and ideal for large nuclear families requiring extra space and a pair of seats, for the pre-teens or even pets,” Mercedes-Benz India managing director & CEO Martin Schwenk said in a statement.
For the first time, the company is offering three powertrains, a petrol, diesel, and an electric for customers, he noted.
“The launch of the EQB is also a significant step towards our vision of transitioning to a climate neutral fleet gradually, with four luxury EVs in the Mercedes-Benz India portfolio,” Schwenk said.
The Pune-based automaker said it has set up 30 ultra-fast chargers across the country and there will be 10 more by the end of this year.
