There is no engine choice to make here. What separates the two trims is styling and equipment, since the powertrain is shared.

Two ways to own the S 450e
The range begins with the S 450e Launch Edition at ₹220.00 Lakh. It carries the full flagship experience, from the rear lounge seats to the plug-in hybrid drivetrain. Above it, the S 450e AMG Line asks ₹238.00 Lakh and layers on the AMG styling package with sportier exterior and cabin touches.
Since both cars use the same 3.0 litre inline-six plug-in hybrid, the decision is about looks and kit rather than pace. Buyers who want the sharper visual identity step up to the AMG Line, while the Launch Edition keeps the classic S-Class look.
What the plug-in hybrid brings
The S 450e pairs a straight-six petrol engine with an electric motor and a battery. It offers up to 115 km of electric-only range, so short daily runs can be done without burning fuel. On longer trips the petrol engine takes over. Total system output is 435 PS with 680 Nm, which moves this large sedan with ease.
