Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2023 questions

How much is a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class in Kenya?

No 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class is listed on Cada right now. Imported from Japan, the estimate is KES 10,600,000 – KES 27,600,000 with KRA taxes, port, clearing and registration (based on KRA's values; the car's own price and shipping differ).

What is the import duty on a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class?

KRA values a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class at its CRSP value less 30% depreciation for a 3-year-old car, then charges import duty, excise duty, VAT, IDF and RDL on that value: about KES 5,600,000 – KES 14,800,000 in total, depending on the version. The final KRA assessment may differ.

Can a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class be imported into Kenya?

Yes. Kenya admits cars first registered within 8 years, so a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class can land up to the end of 2030. Cada can import one for you.

What engine and fuel does a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class have?

KRA lists 35 versions of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class with 3,000 cc, 4,000 cc, 4,700 cc engines (diesel, petrol, hybrid). Which of them were built in 2023 depends on the car; a 2023 Mercedes-Benz S-Class's export certificate and chassis number confirm it.
