Mercedes-Benz has a date for the 2026 Mercedes-Benz S-Class facelift in India — June 15. And this one is different from every S-Class that has come before it in this market. For the first time, Mercedes is bringing a plug-in hybrid S-Class to India, outside of its AMG performance range. The car has been heavily reworked underneath that familiar silhouette — Mercedes-Benz itself says up to 90 percent of the vehicle is new. The design changes are there but measured. The real shift is under the skin, with new electronics, a new operating system, and a powertrain that has not been offered here before.
