In a move that’s sure to have car enthusiasts and financial planners alike scratching their heads in bemusement, Mercedes-Benz India has announced a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to maximize depreciation benefits on its A-Class sedan. Yes, you read that correctly. As the luxury car giant celebrates three decades of opulence and engineering excellence in India, it’s inviting you to join the party—with benefits that sound too good to be true.
Starting with an EMI that’s suspiciously affordable for a Mercedes, at just INR 50,000, the company is rolling out the red carpet for anyone who’s ever dreamed of owning a slice of automotive luxury without selling a kidney. But it’s not just about getting you behind the wheel of the new A-Class sedan; it’s about making you feel like royalty, with loyalty and corporate on-top benefits that scream, “We love you, now please buy our car.”
For those who bleed Mercedes-Benz, or even those who just casually like the brand, there’s a loyalty benefit that applies to all customers. Yes, even if your loyalty was previously swaying towards a bicycle, Mercedes-Benz India has got something for you. And let’s not forget the service package and the extended warranty for the 4th year, which is part of the Star Agility+ programme offered by Mercedes-Benz Financial Services India. Because nothing says “happy 30th anniversary” like not having to worry about your car breaking down.
The A-Class is available in both petrol and diesel engines in India, with prices that start at a modest INR 43.80 lakh. Inside the new A-Class Limousine, it’s all about you, the driver. With a wide range of connectivity and safety innovations, including the further-improved MBUX multimedia system and comfort seats, it’s clear that Mercedes-Benz wants to pamper you silly.
And let’s talk about those comfort seats, draped in ARTICO man-made leather in shades of macchiato beige and black, complete with luggage nets on the backrests. Because nothing says luxury like having a place to stash your stuff. Plus, the rear seat backrests split-folding in a ratio of 40/20/40, because… well, we’re not quite sure, but it sounds impressive.
But wait, there’s more! Get ready to be floored by the 8-year warranty on the engine and transmission from the date of purchase. That’s right, eight whole years. You could probably drive to the moon and back in that time (note: not actually recommended).
So, if you’ve ever fantasized about cruising down the streets in a Mercedes-Benz, now’s your chance. Just remember, when you’re signing on that dotted line, this isn’t just a car purchase; it’s an invitation to a 30-year celebration. And who knows? By the time you’re done maximizing those depreciation benefits, you might just be ready to throw your own lavish bash.
