The launch of the AMG GLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupe is a strategic decision aimed at strengthening our AMG portfolio by introducing the much-awaited ‘AMG 53 series’ in India. The AMG portfolio is one of the fastest-growing segments for us and the addition of the ’53 series’ will further popularise the segment. The AMG GLE 53 4MATIC+ Coupe offers more power and enhanced driving experience for the customers and it is the successor of the outgoing AMG GLE 43 in India.
