Mercedes-Benz India has expanded its presence in Bihar by launching its first luxury car showroom in Patna, operated by the Landmark Group. The new facility is part of the automaker’s broader strategy to reach emerging markets in India, attracting affluent buyers beyond the country’s major metros.

The new facility is spread across 16,500 sqft and will showcase Mercedes-Benz’s full suite of sales and service capabilities to Patna, including test drives of the complete model range – from core sedans to ultra-luxury vehicles.

Customers will benefit from a top-end vehicle lounge, exclusive hospitality areas, dedicated handover bays and a 60kW fast-charging point for electric vehicles.

The company stated that the retail experience emphasises cutting-edge digital integration, with personalised consultations, digital specification stands and private consulting rooms designed to create an immersive luxury journey for buyers.

Patna is among a series of smaller cities targeted by Mercedes-Benz India as high-potential markets with a growing appetite for luxury products. The company has committed to launching 20 new outlets in 2025, focusing on cities such as Kanpur, Varanasi and Patna.

Landmark Group, already a key Mercedes-Benz franchise partner in other Indian metros, brings its experience in automotive retail to Patna with this launch. The company aims to set regional benchmarks for luxury sales, aftersales support, and customer engagement through the new showroom.

The luxury car market in India still accounts for just over 1 percent of total vehicle sales, but Mercedes-Benz believes smaller cities represent enormous untapped potential.

Santosh Iyer, MD, Mercedes-Benz India, said, “We are delighted to inaugurate Patna’s first-ever luxury car showroom, marking a significant milestone in Mercedes-Benz’s India journey. Patna represents the evolving aspirations of new-age customers in Patna, with a growing appetite for luxury products, services and experiences. As part of our ‘Go-to customer’ strategy, Mercedes-Benz’s presence in Patna underlines the rising demand for our vehicles, driving us closer to discerning customers in the region. We are confident our long-standing partner Landmark Cars, will deliver a world-class customer experience that reflects the values of the Three-Pointed Star in Patna.”
