Two of the three new products unveiled at the Auto Expo hereby Mercedes-Benz are compact vehicles, reinforcing the German luxury carmaker’s focus on this segment.
The company lifted the curtain on GLA, a compact SUV that is yet to make its commercial debut globally, and the CLA 45 AMG sedan.
Launched worldwide a few months ago, the CLA is a new entrant in the Mercedes-Benz portfolio, and is positioned between the compact hatchback and the C-Class, till now the entry-level sedan.
Both cars will be introduced in the Indian market this year.
“The Indian market is growing in importance and showing good momentum. We believe it will double as a whole by 2020 and the premium segment will grow proportionally,” said Ola Kallenius, a Mercedes-Benz Cars board member responsible for sales and marketing.
Eberhard Kern, MD and CEO, Mercedes-Benz India, said January sales grew more than 30 per cent.
