Upcoming car launches in November 2026: Mercedes GLC EV, Denza Z9 GT, Innova Hycross facelift and more

October 2026 was a busy month for the Indian automobile industry, with at least nine notable car launches, including the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class facelift, updated Honda Elevate, Skoda Slavia facelift, Volvo EX90, Audi Q3, and more. Now, November is here, and several new models are set to be launched this month too. Let's have a look at some of them.

Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric (Launch: November 4)
The GLC Electric will be offered in the 400 4Matic guise. It gets a 94kWh battery pack, delivering a claimed range of 715km (WLTP). The dual-motor setup produces a combined output of 490hp and 800Nm. The SUV supports DC fast charging up to 330kW. On the inside, it gets a 39.1-inch Hyperscreen with three displays. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come with it. The panoramic glass roof can switch its transparency. The SUV gets over-the-air updates and a Burmester 4D sound system with seat exciters. Expect the price to land between Rs 80 lakh and Rs 90 lakh.

Denza Z9 GT (Launch: November 13)
BYD will bring its luxury sub-brand Denza to India with the Z9 GT shooting brake. A 122.5kWh battery gives it a 600km WLTP range. The battery powers three motors. Together, they make 1,156hp and 1,210Nm. That is enough for a claimed 0-100 km/h time of just 2.7 seconds. The car supports charging of up to 1,500kW DC through BYD’s Flash Charging tech. At that speed, the battery can go from 10 to 97 percent in 9 minutes. Expect prices between Rs 1.2 crore and Rs 1.5 crore.

Toyota Innova Hycross facelift (Launch: November 25)
The Innova Hycross launched four years ago, so it is due for an update. Toyota will likely launch the facelift this month. The big news is that it could be the first flex-fuel strong hybrid car in India. It will likely keep the current 2.0-litre four-cylinder naturally aspirated strong hybrid setup. Toyota would upgrade the engine to work with flex fuel. We don’t know yet if the lower non-hybrid 2.0-litre variants will be flex-fuel compatible.

The electric hatchback gets new headlamps, an octagonal grille, new alloy wheels and sharper tail-lamps. A bigger 54.2kWh battery powers a single front motor. The motor makes 218hp and 330Nm.

A special Paul Smith Edition should arrive with the standard model. Mini built it with British fashion designer Paul Smith. It will be offered in three exclusive colours: Statement Grey, Inspired White and Midnight Black Metallic. Two roof finishes are on offer: Nottingham Green and Jet Black. The ORVMs, grille surround and wheel hubcaps also come in Nottingham Green.
