The Indian automotive market continues to gain momentum as they move into June 2026. After a busy May that saw launches such as the updated Tata Tiago range, the MG Majestor, and the BMW M440i Convertible, the coming month is set to bring even more exciting arrivals.
From flagship ICE sedans to performance-orientated SUVs and electric vehicles, June’s launch lineup highlights how automakers are increasingly focusing on technology, electrification, and premium features. Let's dive into the most notable cars scheduled to hit Indian roads this month.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class Facelift
Launch Date: June 15, 2026
Mercedes-Benz is updating its flagship ICE sedan with an electrified twist. Marking the arrival of the first-ever plug-in hybrid S-Class in India, the S 450e. The vehicle pairs a 3.0-litre turbo-petrol inline-six engine with an electric motor.
Powered by a 22kWh battery, it pumps out a massive 435hp and 680Nm of torque and a claimed 0-100kph time of 5.7 seconds.
Visually, it features a 20% larger grille adorned with tiny chrome stars and sleek tristar LED lights. Inside, the massive MBUX Superscreen setup transforms it into a highly advanced, software-defined vehicle with over-the-air updates.
BMW X6 M60i
Launch Date: To be revealed (Pre-bookings open)
BMW is set to reintroduce the X6 M60i to India, bringing a strong blend of luxury, performance, and sporty design. The coupe-SUV is powered by a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 mild-hybrid petrol engine that produces 523 hp and 750 Nm of torque.
Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system, the X6 M60i can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.3 seconds, while the limited top speed is 250 kph.
The SUV also stands out with its bold styling, featuring sleek LED daytime running lights, a gloss-black kidney grille, and 21-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin is equipped with BMW’s latest curved dual-screen display and a premium, technology-focused interior.
Honda ZR-V

After a preview showcase in May, Honda is expected to announce pricing for the ZR-V. It relies on a highly efficient 2.0-litre strong-hybrid petrol engine producing 184 hp and 315 Nm of torque mated to an e-CVT.
While it misses out on ventilated seats and a sunroof, it comes packed with premium amenities, including a 12-speaker Bose sound system, 8 airbags, a 360-degree camera, and Level-2 ADAS protection.
Skoda Kodiaq RS

Skoda is set to introduce the Kodiaq RS in India, bringing its performance-focused RS badge to the flagship SUV lineup. The model will arrive as a completely built-up unit (CBU) with a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, offering significantly higher power and torque outputs than the standard Kodiaq.
The engine is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system, ensuring strong performance and enhanced driving dynamics.
