While luxury SUVs are becoming increasingly popular, they cannot hold a candle to a legitimate luxury sedan. These sleek, low slung cars exude a unique elegance and sophisticated charm, and have inviting rear seats that pamper you. These are the kind of cars that you want to be chauffeured in. Some of these sedans are also great to drive thanks to their low stance which offers the best body control.

Even though the luxury sedans are no longer as popular as they used to be, there are still enough options in India. Here we have covered some of the best luxury sedans you can buy today. To make this mix interesting, we have also thrown in hybrid and electric luxury sedans because that is where we are headed, right?

Audi A4

Spinny Max Audi A4
<strong>&nbsp;Audi A4</strong>

The Audi A4 might not feel as special and sporty as its rivals, but this luxury sedan offers impeccable value, strong performance and ride quality that makes it a quintessential luxury sedan. The current generation A4 lacks the bells and whistles of its rivals but it backs that up with good pricing, and a cabin that doesn’t skimp on quality. Under the hood is the popular 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo petrol that puts out 190PS and 320 Nm of twist mated to a 7-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox. There are some obvious features misses and a rear seat that doesn’t offer a cohesive luxury experience. But, in essence, the A4 asks the right questions, such as why its rivals have become so expensive?

Audi A4 Specifications

  • Engine: Petrol 2.0L
  • Transmission: 7 Speed AT
  • Airbags: 8
  • Fuel Type: Petrol mild Hybrid 
  • Seating Capacity: 5

  • Powered front seats
  • Three-zone climate control

Skoda Superb

Skoda Superb

The Skoda Superb has always been the underdog of luxury sedans in India. It was a no-nonsense luxury sedan that delivered on rear seat space and comfort equivalent to much bigger and expensive sedans. Skoda also offered terrific engine options including a V6 with AWD. However, in its current guise, the Superb is no longer offering great value costing Rs 54.00 lakh (ex-showroom) limited to 100 units for India. It offers exclusivity but the ask is pretty high. But look past that, it is still a brilliant luxury sedan with acres of rear seat space, a massive boot, great ride quality and the 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol engine pushing out 190PS and 320Nm mated to a 7-speed DSG gearbox. (Yes, it shares the powertrain with the Audi if you’re wondering). 

Skoda Superb Specifications

  • Engine: 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol engine
  • Transmission: 7-speed DSG
  • Airbags: 9
  • Fuel Type: Petrol
  • Seating Capacity: 5

Volvo S90

<strong>Volvo S90</strong>

A full-size luxury sedan that competes with the likes of the Audi A6, the S90 comes with a 2.0-litre turbo petrol mated to a mild hybrid system. The final output stands at a whopping 250PS and 350Nm coupled with an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The S90 is a classy looking sedan that stands out from everything else on the road. It also comes loaded with all the safety kit you expect from Volvo. Plus there’s a well crafted, spacious cabin, with a powerful engine option. What’s not to like about it? The brand image might not be appealing to some and the dealer and service network is an area that needs attention. But this Volvo is definitely a lot of luxury sedan for not a lot of money. 

Volvo S90 Specifications

  • Engine: 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol engine
  • Transmission: 8-speed Automatic
  • Airbags: 7
  • Fuel Type: Petrol
  • Seating Capacity: 5

Mercedes-Benz C-Class

It is really hard to go wrong with a Mercedes-Benz sedan. The 2024 C-Class ups its game with new features and comes powered with three engine options – 1.5-litre turbo-petrol, 2.0-litre diesel, and 3.0-litre turbo-petrol. The last engine is reserved for the C300 AMG Line and offers a substantial 255PS and 400Nm through a 9-speed gearbox. This makes it one of the fastest sedans in its segment. But, the real highlight is its ride quality which has a perfect balance between sportiness and comfort along with a cabin that reminds you of the bigger S-Class. The new C-Class is hard to fault and it might be all the luxury sedan you need in terms of performance and luxury.

Mercedes C-Class Specifications

  • Engine: Diesel 2.0L | Diesel 2.0L | Petrol 1.5L
  • Airbags: 7
  • Fuel Type: Diesel & petrol
  • Seating Capacity: 5

Lexus ES

Lexus ES<strong>&nbsp;</strong>

If you want a modern luxury sedan that is kinder to Earth and offers a design and cabin that screams luxury, the Lexus ES is a strong contender. It comes with a 2.5-litre petrol with a strong hybrid developing a combined 212PS and 213Nm with some help from a CVT gearbox. Performance is not its strongest trait but Lexus claims this sedan can deliver 22 kmpl which is rather impressive for a heavy sedan. Lexus’ interior game has been on point and the ES delivers with a beautiful cabin that is crammed with safety and tech features. All this means the Lexus is not really a driver’s car but as a chauffeur, it is brilliant and it sips the least fuel of all luxury sedans!

Lexus ES Specifications

  • Engine: Petrol 2.5L
  • Transmission: E-CVT
  • Airbags: 10
  • Fuel Type: Petrol hybrid
  • Seating Capacity: 5

Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB

E Class

We repeat, it is really hard to go wrong with a Mercedes-Benz sedan, especially when it is the E-Class LWB. The LWB here stands for LWB and this is the game-changer in this space making the E-Class the best-selling car by a strong margin. The rear set is so roomy that you wonder if you ever need the S-Class. The cabin is beautifully put together and it comes with two four cylinder petrol and a six-cylinder diesel engine with 283PS and 600Nm of torque for the E350d. What makes it special? The ride quality, the high quality cabin and the rear seat experience that still remains unmatched.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB Specifications

  • Engine: 2.0-litre turbo-petrol, 2.0-litre turbo diesel, 3.0-litre turbo diesel
  • Transmission: 9-speed Automatic
  • Airbags: 9
  • Fuel Type: Petrol/Diesel
  • Seating Capacity: 4

Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB Key Features

  • Reclining rear seats with memory function
  • Power close doors (soft-close)
  • Air body control (AMG Line)

BMW i5

Spinny Max BMW 5-Series
<strong>BMW i5</strong>

While the E-Class LWB remains unmatched in its rear seat experience, if you want an all-electric luxury sedan, BMW has you covered with the i5. A 600PS all-electric sedan that can sprint to 100kmph in 3.8 seconds and seat five in luxury is too good to be true. But it is true although it comes at a price, Rs 1.20 crore (ex-showroom) to be precise. A WLTP claimed range of 512km is impressive thanks to the massive 83.9 kWh battery pack. Like all BMWs, it handles and goes like nothing else, but it suffers from a stiff ride quality. However, if electric is your direction, the i5 makes a strong case for itself without trying too hard.

BMW i5 Specifications

  • Engine: 83.9kWh battery pack with dual electric motors
  • Transmission: Nil
  • Airbags: 7
  • Fuel Type: Electric
  • Seating Capacity: 5

BMW i5 Key Features

  • Adaptive LED Headlights 
  • Bowers and Wilkins 17-speaker sound system
  • Parking Assist Plus

BMW 7 Series

BMW’s flagship sedan packs some strong punches. There’s a bold design that might or might not appeal to you. But you cannot ignore the fact that it is one of the best luxury sedans in the world right now. BMW does it effortlessly, combining luxury with modern tech. The talking point is the 31-inch 8k theatre display mounted on the roof along with the overall soothing nature of the cabin with a minimalistic design. Powering the 7 are two engines – 3.0-litre six-cylinder petrol ( 376PS and 520Nm) and a 3.0-litre diesel (283PS and 650Nm) These engines are supported by an eight-speed Steptronic transmission and a 48V mild-hybrid system.

  • Seating Capacity: 5

There’s a strong reason why the S-Class is known as the best car in the world. You might often find the S-Class pioneering the luxury sedan space with rivals following its footsteps. With every generation, the S-Class has transcended time and technological advancements but stayed the same –  a luxury sedan in absolute glory. The latest gets everything you can imagine with 3.0-litre, six-cylinder petrol and diesel engines pushing north of 300PS. The S-Class is the epitome of luxury and it doesn’t get any better unless you are willing to spend over Rs 2 Crore.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class Specifications

  • Engine: 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel and petrol
  • Transmission: 8-speed automatic
  • Airbags: 10
  • Fuel Type: Petrol/Diesel
