Mercedes-Benz India has launched limited edition variants of the A-Class and B-Class, named Night Edition. Prices for the luxury hatchbacks start at Rs. 27.31 lakh and Rs. 29.34 lakh, respectively (ex-showroom Pune). Limited to just 100 cars, the new kit includes black painted ORVMs, glossy black finished front and rear bumpers and 17-inch 5-spoke alloy wheels.

The Urban Package (part of the special edition) includes features such as an 8-inch infotainment system with a smartphone integration package via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, leather wrapped sports seats with contrasting stitching, multi-functional steering wheel and gearknob. On the outside, the luxury hatchbacks get a diamond radiator grille with a black/chrome inserts and a chrome-plated tailpipe.

Power duties are handled by a 1.6-litre petrol engine which makes 120bhp and 200Nm of torque and a larger 2-litre diesel engine makes 134bhp and 300Nm. Both the engines are mated to a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox and come with four driving modes – Comfort, Eco, Sport and Individual. 6 airbags, traction control and Mercedes Benz’s attention assist package is all a part of the package.

At the launch Roland Folger, MD, Mercedes-Benz India stated “We are glad to remain the most preferred luxury car brand in India and we begin this year in style, by launching two products in the segment we have pioneered, ‘compact luxury’. The trendy and fashionable A-Class and B-Class ‘Night Edition’ are a synthesis of youthful design that emulates modern luxury without compromising on performance. We believe our new generation cars play a key role in attracting dynamic, affluent and young Indians to the brand and this success story will be further amplified by the launch of the ‘Night Edition’ variants.”

Mercedes-Benz India had launched more than one car every month last year, and with the launch of the Night Edition, we expect the same story to be followed in 2017.
