Mercedes-Benz, which at present sells the C, E, S, GL and M Class vehicle range in India, says the R-Class will open a new segment for the company.
The crossover is powered by a 3.5-litre V6 engine, has multi-element headlamps and a top speed of about 230 km per hour. The company says the model is conceived to combine all the best characteristics of a luxury sport sedan with the versatility of an SUV, the 5-door design and finely tuned features.
