Here is everything you need to know!

Mercedes-Benz India has launched the GLE and GLS Night Edition, a limited-series version of its two highest-selling luxury SUVs in the country. The edition comes in two colours: Obsidian Black and Alpine Grey, with Alpine Grey being exclusive to this series and not available on standard models. Both variants get black Nappa leather upholstery and Anthracite open-pore oak wooden trim, neither of which is offered on the regular GLE or GLS. A Head-Up Display is standard on both models, and the GLE Night Edition also gets AIRMATIC suspension, which the standard GLE does not have.

-- On pricing, the GLE 300d Night Edition starts at Rs. 1.05 Cr. and the GLE 450 at Rs. 1.14 Cr. The GLS 450 is priced at Rs. 1.41 Cr. and the GLS 450d at Rs. 1.43 Cr., all ex-showroom. All four variants use a 9G-TRONIC transmission and come with AIRMATIC suspension as standard. India is also noted as one of Mercedes-Benz's top global markets for both the GLE and GLS, which adds context to why this limited series is being offered here.
