Mercedes-Benz EQE price cut by Rs 20 lakh in India, loyalty vouchers for existing customers
Mercedes Benz India has implemented a price cut of EQE SUV in India by Rs 20 lakh, reported Business Today. After the price cut, the Mercedes-Benz EQE costs Rs 1.19 crore (ex-showroom). The company has taken this step in order to put a difference between the EQS SUV (that launched recently) and the EQE.
The Mercedes Benz EQE SUV launched at Rs 1.41 crore and is brought to the country as a CKD (completely knocked-down) unit. On the other hand, the EQE was previously brought to India as a CBU (completely built-up) unit. The difference in prices makes a clear gap between the EQS and EQE. The company has also mentioned that the existing owners of EQE in India will receive a Rs 5 lakh voucher. This voucher will be applicable to any new Mercedes-Benz car purchased in the next three years. This is seen as a move to encourage customer loyalty.
