2025 India Car Launch: Following a flurry of launches in early WFH‑era months, June 2025 stood out — from electrified SUVs to ultra‑luxury limited editions. Bharat’s roads welcomed exciting new machines across multiple segments.

1. Tata Harrier EV — Flagship Electric SUV (Launched 3 June 2025)

Tata Motors finally unveiled its Harrier EV, a battery‑electric mid‑size SUV built on the newly christened acti.ev Plus (OmegaArc) platform. Offered in AWD with dual motors and 65 kWh or 75 kWh LFP battery packs, it delivers up to 627 km range (MIDC), 0–100 km/h in 6.3 seconds, DC fast charging at 120 kW, V2L/V2V support, and six terrain modes including Boost and Drift.

Safety gets a 5‑star Bharat NCAP rating. Price kicks off at ₹21.49 lakh ex‑showroom, and special Stealth Edition adds matte‑black styling and exclusivity. This makes the Harrier EV one of the most feature‑rich EVs in its category in India.

2. Mercedes‑AMG G 63 Collector’s Edition (Launched 12 June 2025)

Mercedes‑Benz India introduced a Collector’s Edition G 63, uniquely styled with India‑inspired badging, upholstery, and paint themes. Mechanically, it retains the standard 4.0‑liter twin‑turbo V8 mild‑hybrid powerplant, delivering ~585 BHP and 850 Nm torque paired with a 9‑speed automatic and AWD.

Launched on 12 June, it’s limited in units, and priced at around ₹4–4.3 crore ex‑showroom, a premium over the standard G63 ₹3.5–3.6 crore mark. With bespoke styling and collectibility, this edition is tailor‑made for affluent buyers seeking exclusivity.

3. Mercedes‑AMG GT 63 & GT 63 Pro (Launched 27 June 2025)

Their 0–100 km/h sprint is claimed in around 3.2–3.5 seconds, with top speeds north of 315 km/h. With prices starting at ₹3 crore for GT 63 and rising to ₹3.5 crore or above for the GT 63 Pro, these are aimed squarely at India’s ultra‑luxury performance market.

6. Citroën C3 Sport Edition (June 2025)

Citroën launched its C3 Sport Edition hatchback as a cosmetic special, priced from ₹6.44 to ₹10.21 lakh ex‑showroom.

7. Honda City Sport (20 June 2025)

Honda unveiled the City Sport, a limited‑edition variant of the popular mid‑size sedan aimed at younger buyers. Sporting visual and feature enhancements over the standard City, the Sport Edition emphasizes styling and exclusivity, though retains the same petrol powertrain. Further details on pricing and specs have been shared by Honda through official communications.

Additional Highlights

Although not every spec is fully confirmed yet, reports had suggested several more possible June launches: Renault Kiger facelift, Renault Triber facelift, Maruti Swift facelift, Mahindra Thar 5‑door, Kia Sonet facelift, Skoda Octavia RS, and MG Cyberster EV convertible sportscar etc. However, official launches confirmed in June were all above.

• Notably, Renault did launch a Triber facelift very recently, priced ₹6.29–9.16 lakh (ex‑showroom), though that launch may have spilled into late June or early July.
