Mercedes has launched the EQS SUV in India at an introductory price of Rs 1.41 crore, just days after the introduction of the Maybach EQS SUV. This is the sixth EV in Mercedes’ Indian line-up and is positioned between the EQE SUV and the Maybach EQS SUV. Moreover, the EQS SUV will be locally assembled here in India, just like the EQS sedan. Mercedes says India is the first market outside the USA to produce the EQE SUV.
