The new R-Class model has been developed in a completely new avatar with more aggressive front section along with styling cues borrowed from Mercedes' popular SUV and saloon models. With this, the R-Class model comes equipped with the latest Blue EFFICIENCY technology of Mercedes-Benz, making it one of the most environment-friendly and economical vehicles in the premium car segment. The mileage that it offers is around 7.6 l per 100 km, which is around 7 percent less than the fuel economy of the preceding model.

The company has a lot of surprises and is exploring a number of options for the Indian market, as per a statement given by Dr. Wilfried Aulbur, managing director & CEO, Mercedes-Benz India to a leading media group. However he refused to comment on the launch of R-Class in India.
