Mercedes-Benz to Locally Produce GLS Maybach in India, First Market Outside US

Mercedes-Benz will begin local production of its ultra-luxury GLS Maybach SUV in India, making it the first market outside the US to assemble the model. This move follows India becoming a top-five global market for the Maybach brand. Local production is expected to reduce the price of the GLS Maybach to Rs 2.75 crore from Rs 3.17 crore. Mercedes-Benz India also plans to launch 12 new products in 2026, including electric vehicles, and reported its best-ever revenue in 2025 despite a slight dip in sales volume.
