Mercedes-Benz India has rolled out the new G450d diesel SUV, priced at ₹2.90 crore (ex-showroom), marking the arrival of a new diesel model to the iconic G-Class family, which mixes performance, a rugged exterior, and modern comfort.
The G450d features the new 3.0-litre inline-six diesel engine with mild-hybrid technology, offering a combination of high torque, a pay-load of power, and improved fuel economy. The launch of this diesel model is another step in Mercedes' efforts to enhance its luxury SUVs in the Indian market.

The Mercedes-Benz G450d is powered by an inline-six diesel engine that displaces 2,989cc, producing 367 bhp and 750 Nm of torque, paired with a 9G-Tronic automatic transmission. This setup means that the G450d delivers the same unrivaled off-road capabilities inherent in the G-Class, while improving drivability and efficiency in city use.
