The Indian automobile market is geared up for a thrilling June with a series of car and two-wheeler launches. Led by Tata’s flagship EV and the India-exclusive Mercedes Collector’s Edition. From electric SUVs to high-performance luxury vehicles and updated bikes—June 2025 promises something for every kind of motor enthusiast.

Here are the automobile releases to look forward to this week:

Tata Harrier EV
Tata Motors finally launched its long-awaited Harrier EV on June 3, 2025. The electric SUV is the brand’s most ambitious EV offering yet. Built on the updated Acti.ev architecture, a modification of the OMEGA platform, the Harrier EV features dual motors and all-wheel drive, capable of delivering up to 500Nm of torque. The company claims the EV has crossed 500km of real-world range on their internal C75 test cycle.

Visually, the Harrier EV stays true to the ICE model but gets EV-specific styling like a sealed grille, connected DRLs, aero-friendly alloys, and unique badging. Inside, it shares features like a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, panoramic sunroof, and OTA updates, along with terrain modes for off-road versatility.

Mercedes-AMG G 63 Collector’s Edition

Mercedes-Benz is set to launch a special version of the famous AMG G 63 SUV just for India on June 12, 2025. This Collector’s Edition has been customised by their R&D team in India, featuring unique styling, special trims, and new paint options.

It will keep the powerful 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, delivering 580 bhp and 850 Nm of torque, and come with a 9-speed automatic gearbox. The standard AMG G 63 costs ₹3.64 crore and this new edition will likely be priced higher.

Yezdi Adventure

The 2025 Yezdi Adventure hit the market on June 4, sporting updates to its 334cc liquid-cooled engine.

Warivo EVs and Kawasaki Z900

Just a day earlier, on June 3, Warivo introduced three new electric scooters—Nova, Neo, and Edge—catering to budget-friendly, eco-conscious riders. On June 2, Kawasaki launched a new version of its well-loved Z900, complete with some design changes and fresh features.

Audi Q5 2026

The Audi Q5 2026 is set to hit the market later this month, with a price tag around ₹70 lakh. It packs a 1984 cc petrol engine and is built on a new platform that boosts performance and fuel efficiency. Inside, it has a refreshed look with the latest infotainment and driver assistance features, plus higher quality materials that give it a posh vibe. While it keeps that classic Audi style, it also has some modern updates, making it an attractive choice for anyone looking for style, comfort, and tech.
