When considering purchasing a Mercedes-Benz in Canada, it’s crucial to understand the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) and the additional fees and disclaimers that apply. The national MSRP is provided for informational purposes only and does not encompass a comprehensive breakdown of the final cost.
Several additional charges are not included in the MSRP. These typically involve freight and PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection), which can be up to $3,995. Furthermore, customers should anticipate an A/C surcharge of $100, a tire charge potentially reaching $35, and dealer administration fees that can go up to $695. Provincial fees such as the OMVIC fee in Ontario ($12.50) and the AMVIC fee in Alberta ($10) are also not factored into the MSRP. Taxes, and where applicable, the federal Luxury Tax surcharge for vehicles priced above $100,000 are also extra costs to consider. It’s important to note that these fees, levies, and duties can fluctuate depending on the region and the specific dealer. For precise details on the Luxury Tax surcharge, consulting your dealer or the Government of Canada’s website is recommended.
License, insurance, registration, and specific duties like the new tire duty in Quebec, along with all applicable sales taxes, are also expenses that are added to the final price. The quoted selling price does not include any optional products, services, or add-ons available through Mercedes-Benz dealers, nor does it account for lien registration or third-party agent fees, which could be up to $130 for leased or financed vehicles, varying by region, lease/finance type, and contract terms. The ultimate vehicle purchase price is subject to change and can differ based on the dealer and customer location, current inventory levels, specific vehicle features, and any applicable discounts or rebates. Dealers have the discretion to sell for less than the MSRP. To get the most accurate and up-to-date pricing and availability information, it is essential to contact your local Mercedes-Benz dealer directly.
It is also important to be aware of disclaimers regarding vehicle performance. Stated acceleration rates are estimates derived from manufacturer track results and can vary based on factors like the specific model, environmental conditions, road surface quality, driving style, elevation, and vehicle load. Similarly, for electric Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the estimated driving range is determined using Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN) approved guidelines with a fully charged battery. However, the actual range can vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including vehicle characteristics, wheel and tire styles, charging capacity settings, ambient temperature, terrain, battery condition, optional equipment, driving habits, weather, and vehicle maintenance. These range estimations are for informational and comparative purposes only. For detailed information, refer to the Government of Canada’s EnerGuide Fuel Consumption Guide or the NRCAN website.
Ultimately, remember that the final purchase price of a Mercedes-Benz vehicle in Canada is determined by the dealer and can vary. Factors such as dealer and customer location, inventory, vehicle features, and available incentives all play a role. Always confirm the final price and specific details with your local Mercedes-Benz Canada dealer.
