Re: Mercedes-Benz GL500 Launched and soon to be assembled in India Sorry for updating this dead topic but made more sense than to create a new one,
ML is now in it's 3rd generation which will be launched in April 2012 under the ML350 CDI and few weeks after that will be the launch of ML250 CDI, these will be highly competitive and also will see the CKD assembly operations which makes the overall cost come down.
For now the current ML 350 CDI has been introduced as a corporate edition at a price of 45,89,770 /- INR and these are a part of the grand editions which include some funky alloys and a few interior upgrades like leather dash etc.
GL Grand Edition / Final edition should also be here soon perhaps by Q42011, as it's also now in it's final year of production to be replaced by an all new model sometime in the year 2012 so expect it in India by 2013, and if volumes are good enough by then expect that to be locally assembled too and perhaps with a lot more local content by then.
