"The launch of a high-end exclusive sedan like Mercedes-AMG S63 is a fine instance of our successful ‘top of the pyramid’ product strategy," Mercedes-Benz India Managing Director Eberhard Kern told reporters here.
This was the company's tenth launch of the year and it had been able to create "a lot of excitement" for the brand in a market that was gradually showing signs of improvement, Kern said.
