Whether you’re eyeing your first luxury car or upgrading to your next premium ride, 2025 offers something exciting across every price segment. From compact luxury SUVs to executive sedans and full-size 3-row flagships, we’ve curated the 10 best luxury cars currently available in India, divided by budget brackets.
Let’s dive in and find the right luxury experience for you.
Segment 1: Luxury Cars Under ₹70 Lakhs
1. BMW X1
The all-new BMW X1 has grown in presence, tech and comfort. It’s no longer just a compact crossover—it feels more grown-up, with premium interiors, bold styling, and the latest iDrive operating system. Available in both petrol (sDrive18i) and diesel (sDrive18d) variants, it’s ideal for first-time luxury car buyers.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Compact Luxury SUV |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹50.80 lakh |
| Engine Options | 1.5L 3-Cyl Turbo Petrol (sDrive18i) / 2.0L 4-Cyl Turbo Diesel (sDrive18d) |
| Power & Torque | 136 hp / 230 Nm (Petrol) • 150 hp / 360 Nm (Diesel) |
| Transmission | 7-speed DCT |
| 0–100 km/h | 9.2 seconds (Petrol) / 8.9 seconds (Diesel) |
| Key Tech | Curved dual-screen display, iDrive 9, ADAS |
| Why It Stands Out | Bold redesign, refined drive quality, class-leading infotainment tech |
2. Volvo XC60
The Volvo XC60 blends Scandinavian elegance with class-leading safety and intuitive tech. A 2.0L turbocharged petrol mild-hybrid engine powers it, offering a clean, minimalist interior that’s both calming and functional. Google built-in infotainment, Pilot Assist, and a plush ride make it a favorite for calm, confident daily driving.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Midsize Luxury SUV |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹70.75 lakh |
| Engine | 2.0L Turbo Petrol + 48V Mild Hybrid (B5 Ultra) |
| Power & Torque | 250 hp / 360 Nm |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic, AWD |
| 0–100 km/h | 7.3 seconds |
| Key Tech | Adaptive cruise control, Google built-in, 360° camera, ADAS |
| Why It Stands Out | Clean design, safety-first approach, and a tech-rich yet soothing cabin |
3. Mercedes-Benz C-Class
The C-Class is often referred to as the ‘baby S-Class’—and for good reason. With its stretched proportions, ultra-luxurious dashboard, and twin powertrain options, it brings sophistication and punch to the under-₹70L segment. Choose the C 200 petrol for refined cruising or the C 220d diesel for spirited performance.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Entry-Level Luxury Sedan |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹60.30 lakh (C 200) / ₹61.20 lakh (C 220d) |
| Engine Options | 1.5L Turbo Petrol (C 200), 2.0L Diesel (C 220d) |
| Power & Torque | 204 hp / 300 Nm (Petrol), 200 hp / 440 Nm (Diesel) |
| Transmission | 9-speed automatic |
| 0–100 km/h | 7.3s (C 200), 7.3s (C 220d) |
| Key Tech | MBUX, 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof |
| Why It Stands Out | S-Class-inspired tech, classy interiors, and dual fuel choices for flexibility |
Segment 2: ₹70 Lakhs to ₹1 Crore
4. Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB
The E-Class Long Wheelbase is tailor-made for India, offering a first-class rear seat experience in a sedan format. It’s available with a petrol (E 200) or diesel (E 220d) engine, and both versions come with limousine-like legroom, rear reclining seats, and soft ride quality—perfect for chauffeur-driven buyers.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Executive Luxury Sedan (LWB) |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹81.50 lakh (E 200) / ₹84.00 lakh (E 220d) |
| Engine Options | 2.0L Petrol (E 200), 2.0L Diesel (E 220d) |
| Power & Torque | 204 hp / 320 Nm (Petrol), 197 hp / 440 Nm (Diesel) |
| Transmission | 9-speed automatic |
| 0–100 km/h | 7.5s (E 200), 7.6s (E 220d) |
| Key Tech | Rear reclining seats, Burmester audio, panoramic sunroof, 4-zone automatic climate control |
| Why It Stands Out | India-specific LWB format, unmatched back seat comfort in its class |
5. Range Rover Velar
The Range Rover Velar sits beautifully between luxury and minimalism. With its flush door handles, floating screens, and refined diesel engine, it appeals to buyers who want exclusivity in design without going all-in on bulkier SUVs. It’s equally at home in the city or a luxury retreat.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Midsize Luxury SUV |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹84.90 (P250) / ₹89.90 lakh (D200) |
| Engine | 2.0L Petrol (P250) / 2.0L Diesel (D200) |
| Power & Torque | 246 hp, 365 Nm (P250) / 201 hp, 430 Nm (D200) |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic, AWD |
| 0–100 km/h | 7.5 seconds (Petrol) / 8.3 seconds (Diesel) |
| Key Tech | Touch Pro Duo, air suspension, Meridian audio, matrix laser LED lights |
| Why It Stands Out | Striking design, signature Range Rover feel in a manageable size |
6. Audi A6
The Audi A6 is a timeless sedan that nails the basics—clean design, excellent ride comfort, and a strong petrol engine. It’s also one of the most tech-forward in its class with a virtual cockpit, twin touchscreen layout, and ADAS features.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Executive Luxury Sedan |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹66.05 lakh (Premium Plus) / ₹72.43 lakh (Technology) |
| Engine | 2.0L Turbo Engine |
| Power & Torque | 261 hp / 370 Nm |
| Transmission | 7-speed dual-clutch automatic (S tronic) |
| 0–100 km/h | 6.7 seconds |
| Key Tech | Audi Virtual Cockpit Plus, twin MMI touchscreens, 4-zone climate control |
| Why It Stands Out | Classy design, balanced performance, and premium German quality |
Segment 3: ₹1 Crore to ₹1.5 Crore
7. Porsche Macan
Note: Standard variant pricing starts at ₹96.05 lakh without optional equipment. Most customer-spec units cross ₹1 Cr ex-showroom.
The Porsche Macan remains the most driver-focused SUV under ₹1.5 Cr. Whether you choose the base version or the high-performance GTS, what you get is precise steering, a performance-first cabin layout, and the assurance of Porsche engineering.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Compact Performance SUV |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹96.05 lakh (Standard)* |
| Engine | 2.0L Turbo Petrol |
| Power & Torque | 265 hp / 400 Nm (Standard) |
| Transmission | 7-speed PDK, AWD |
| 0–100 km/h | 6.4s (Standard), |
| Key Tech | Sport Chrono Pack, adaptive air suspension (Optional), Porsche Communication Management |
| Why It Stands Out | Sharpest handling SUV in the segment with true sports car DNA |
8. Range Rover Sport
The Range Rover Sport is where sportiness meets British luxury. With the D300 diesel engine, you get powerful torque, air suspension comfort, and a new-gen interior design with floating displays and soft-touch materials throughout. It’s built for both prestige and practicality.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Performance SUV |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹1.47 Cr |
| Engine | 3.0L Petrol (P400) / 3.0L Diesel (D350) |
| Power & Torque | 394 hp – 550 Nm (P400) / 345 hp – 700 Nm (D350) |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic, AWD |
| 0–100 km/h | 5.5 seconds (Petrol) / 5.8 seconds (Diesel) |
| Key Tech | Dynamic air suspension, Pivi Pro, Meridian sound, 360° camera |
| Why It Stands Out | Luxury and dynamic ability combined in a sleek, commanding package |
9. Volvo XC90
If you’re after timeless design, Scandinavian comfort, and family-focused practicality, the Volvo XC90 B5 Ultimate checks all the boxes. This petrol mild-hybrid variant skips the plug but retains all the signature Volvo traits: clean interiors, advanced safety, and three rows of usable space.
| Specification | Details |
| Type | Midsize Luxury SUV (Mild-Hybrid Petrol) |
| Starting Ex-Showroom Price | ₹1.03 Crore |
| Engine | 2.0L Turbo Petrol + 48V Mild-Hybrid System |
| Power & Torque | 250 hp / 360 Nm |
| Transmission | 8-speed automatic, AWD |
| 0–100 km/h | 7.7 seconds |
| Key Tech | Air purifier, Google built-in, Bowers & Wilkins sound, ADAS suite |
| Why It Stands Out | Understated design, top-tier comfort, and Volvo’s legendary safety in a family-ready package |
