Mercedes-Benz India has given its flagship full-size luxury SUV a performance-inspired update with the introduction of the GLS AMG\u202fLine variants. Available in both petrol (GLS 450 AMG\u202fLine<\/strong>) and diesel (GLS 450d AMG\u202fLine<\/strong>) guises, the updated GLS<\/a><\/strong><\/span> arrives with sharper styling, premium interior touches, and retains its powerful inline-six punch.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pricing & Positioning<\/span><\/h2>\n

1. GLS\u202f450 AMG\u202fLine (petrol)<\/strong>: \u20b91.40\u202fcrore (ex-showroom)<\/span><\/p>\n

2. GLS\u202f450d AMG\u202fLine (diesel)<\/strong>: \u20b91.43\u202fcrore (ex-showroom)<\/span><\/p>\n

Both versions carry a modest premium over their standard counterparts\u2014\u20b93 lakh extra on petrol and \u20b91 lakh on diesel, making it a cost-effective upgrade for AMG styling and features.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

– Distinctive AMG front and rear bumpers with enlarged air intakes and diffuser-style detailing.<\/span><\/p>\n

– Sporty body-coloured wheel arches and side sills to match the updated rugged aesthetic.<\/span><\/p>\n

– 21-inch AMG alloy wheels, large perforated front brakes, and \u201cMercedes-Benz\u201d branded brake callipers.<\/span><\/p>\n

– AMG Night Package options: blacked-out exterior trim pieces\u2014mirror caps, window frames, roof rails\u2014with dark chrome grille slats.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Powertrain & Performance<\/span><\/h2>\n

The AMG\u202fLine retains the mechanical package of the standard GLS:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. GLS\u202f450 (petrol)<\/strong>: 3.0\u202fL turbocharged inline6 producing 375\u202fhp and 500\u202fNm.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. GLS\u202f450d (diesel)<\/strong>: 3.0\u202fL inline6 delivering 362\u202fhp and 750\u202fNm.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Market Impact & Mercedes-Benz Momentum<\/span><\/h2>\n

This launch is timely:<\/strong> Mercedes-Benz India has just reported record-breaking Q1 sales(April\u2013June 2025), with 4,238 units sold\u2014a 10% year-on-year increase. <\/span><\/p>\n

The GLS contributes significantly, with over 16,000 units sold in India to date. Notably, top-end and EV models saw even stronger interest, with top-end luxury vehicles up 20% and BEV sales surging 157% year-on-year.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Verdict: AMG Appeal with Familiar Heart<\/span><\/h2>\n

The GLS AMG\u202fLine doesn\u2019t reinvent the wheel\u2014it builds on an already impressive platform. With enhanced visual aggression, tasteful interior upgrades, and no compromise in ride comfort or performance, it targets buyers seeking a sharper edge without diving into full AMG territory. <\/span><\/p>\n
