₹4.3 Crore G-Wagon: Mercedes unveils ultra-limited G 63 Collector's Edition in India

Mercedes-Benz has introduced a highly exclusive edition of its performance SUV in India — the Mercedes-AMG G 63 'Collector's Edition'. Priced at ₹ 4.3 crore (ex-showroom), this special version of the G-Class is limited to just 30 units, with bookings now open and deliveries expected to begin by the end of 2025. The Collector's Edition is a tribute to the spirit of India, with the monsoon season serving as its central theme. Designed specifically for the Indian market, this bespoke model is available in two unique Manufaktur paint finishes — Mid Green Magno, inspired by the lush greenery of the Indian monsoon, and Red Magno, evoking the reddish, mineral-rich soil found across many parts of the country. These colours are exclusive to this edition and have been developed to resonate with Indian natural landscapes. Mechanically, the special edition remains identical to the standard AMG G 63. Under the bonnet lies a 4.0-litre biturbo V8 petrol engine paired with 48V mild-hybrid assistance, delivering a formidable 585 bhp and 850 Nm of peak torque. An Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) contributes an additional 20 bhp and 200 Nm, providing seamless performance and improved efficiency. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a 9-speed automatic gearbox, retaining the G 63's renowned off-road prowess and dynamic capabilities. The exterior is further enhanced by 22-inch AMG alloy wheels finished in gold, adding to its visual exclusivity. A custom 'Collector's Edition' badge on the side protection strips and a 'One of Thirty' emblem on the rear spare wheel cover reinforce its limited-edition status. Inside, the cabin exemplifies bespoke craftsmanship. The SUV is trimmed in two-tone Manufaktur Catalana Beige and Black Nappa leather, contrasted with an open-pore walnut wood dashboard, blending modern luxury with classic refinement. Perhaps the most personalised touch is the option for buyers to have their name engraved on the front passenger grab handle, ensuring each unit is truly one of a kind.

Mercedes-Benz sees surge in customisation; luxury EV sales up 66%

Mercedes-Benz India, which recently launched a collector's edition of the Mercedes-AMG G63 priced at ₹4.3 crore, says demand for customisation is rising in the top-end vehicle (TEV) segment, as buyers increasingly want their cars to stand out. Some customers are spending an additional ₹60 lakh to ₹1.5 crore on personalisation alone. Santosh Iyer, managing director and chief executive officer (CEO) of Mercedes-Benz India, said this trend is being driven by a small, exclusive community of TEV owners who seek to differentiate their cars within their social circles. Customisation options include bespoke colours, personalised engravings on grab handles, and edition-specific branding. Mercedes also offers personalisation kits priced around ₹10 lakh. The company believes the appetite for customisation is growing — and not just among younger buyers. For models like the G63, nearly 75 per cent of units sold are personalised. For others, such as the Maybach S-Class, the figure is around 60 per cent. Iyer also highlighted the strong performance of luxury electric vehicles (EVs) this year, with industry volumes rising 66 per cent to cross 2,000 units in the first five months of 2025. Mercedes-Benz India's own EV sales grew 73 per cent, with EVs now accounting for 11 per cent of the luxury segment. As for the AMG G63 collector's edition, just 30 units will be offered in India. Bookings opened on Thursday. The special edition was developed in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Research & Development India (MBRDI). 'At MBRDI, we are proud to have played a key role in shaping this India-inspired collector's edition of the AMG G63. With this edition, we aimed to go beyond performance and create a vehicle that resonates with India's unique identity,' said Manu Saale, MD and CEO, MBRDI.
