A lot of anticipation has started to build up ever since Mercedes-Benz teased the new S-Class a few days ago. The teaser image and previous spy pictures suggest that the new-generation Mercedes-Benz S-Class will be a leap over its predecessor both in terms of design and technology. That said, we in India will still have to wait for the new model as its launch is not slated this year. Speaking to the media, Martin Schwenk, Managing Director & CEO- Mercedes-Benz India confirmed that the new S-Class is not going to be launched in India this year. It is expected to go on sale in our market in 2021.
