If you are buying a used Audi in India, the single most useful thing to know is the date April 2020. Every A4, A6, Q3, Q5 and Q7 sold new after that point is a turbo-petrol, because Audi India dropped diesel entirely at the BS6 switchover. Before it, most of these cars were diesels. That one split decides your running costs, your registration life in Delhi NCR, and which faults you should be hunting for
The BMW X6 is now sold in India only as the X6 M60i xDrive, a fully imported model priced at Rs 1,77,90,000 ex-showroom. It pairs a 530hp, 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 with all-wheel drive and rear-wheel steering, and it is properly quick: BMW claims 0-100kph in 4.3 seconds, and Autocar India’s timed run came in at 4.11 seconds. It is a superb performance SUV with a compromised back seat, and anyone who wants the X6 shape
The facelifted Mercedes-Maybach S-Class launched in India on 5 October 2026 at Rs 3.35 crore (ex-showroom), and it arrives only as the S 580e plug-in hybrid. A 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol engine and an electric motor replace the old 4.0-litre V8, making 585hp and 750Nm combined, with a claimed electric-only range of up to 98km. Only 30 cars are coming in the first batch, so if you want one, the conversation with your dealer needs to
The Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric launches in India on 4 November 2026, with bookings already open and an expected price of Rs 80 lakh to Rs 90 lakh ex-showroom. BMW’s answer, a long-wheelbase iX3, is not due until 2027. So the real question for an Indian buyer today is not which one to buy, but whether the BMW is worth waiting a year for. On what we know now, the GLC is the safer bet for
BMW Premium Selection, Mercedes-Benz Certified, Audi Approved, and Volvo Selekt are the four main manufacturer-backed pre-owned programmes for luxury cars in India. They differ mainly in three things: how old and how far-driven a car can be to qualify, how detailed the inspection is, and how long the warranty runs. On published terms, Audi’s two-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty is the most generous, and Volvo publishes the clearest eligibility rules. The bigger lesson, though, is that the

Seven luxury SUVs on sale in India offer a real three-row, seven-seat layout in 2026: the Mercedes-Benz GLS, BMW X7, Land Rover Defender 130, Audi Q7, Volvo XC90, Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV and Land Rover Discovery Sport. Ex-showroom prices run from about Rs 63 lakh to about Rs 1.48 crore. We have not padded this to ten, because the other names buyers often expect (Range Rover, Lexus LX, Mercedes GLB) are not sold here with seven
India’s luxury convertible segment is small and getting smaller. As of this month, only eight open-top cars from established luxury marques are on sale new in the country, down from the wider field of a few years ago now that Porsche’s 718 Boxster, the Lamborghini Huracán Spyder and Ferrari’s V12 spider have all fallen off the price lists. Ranked here by how complete a convertible ownership experience each one offers an Indian buyer (day-to-day usability,
The best luxury cars above Rs 2 crore in India right now are the Porsche 911, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Lexus LM, Range Rover, BMW XM, Mercedes-Benz G-Class, Lexus LX, and the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class. Each one starts at or near the Rs 2 crore mark, ex-showroom, and each gets a clear verdict below. How we ranked them. We included only cars currently on sale in India from the brands Motozite covers (Audi, BMW, Land Rover, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz,
If you’re shopping for a two-door luxury coupe in India today, the real options are fewer than they used to be. BMW has quietly ended the 8 Series and M8 globally, Porsche has pulled the 718 Cayman and Boxster from its India website, and Audi hasn’t had a proper coupe on sale here since the TT and R8 were discontinued. Checking every brand’s current India lineup still lands on a genuine ten, ranked below by
