Italy-based high-performance super bikes maker MV Agusta is planning to launch limited edition of its Mercedes-AMG branded racing super bikes F3RC and F4RC models in India in October this year.

Out of the limited edition of 250 units globally, only a handful of the premium super bikes will be made available in India. Notably, Mercedes-AMG holds 25 per cent stake in MV Agusta.

"India will be allotted only 10 such AMG-branded F3RCs and 2 units of F4RCs in October this year. Each will be priced at Rs 19 lakh and Rs 50 lakh, respectively. Since these are limited edition models branded with Mercedes-AMG, there is much excitement among the bikers," said Ajinkya Firodia, managing director, MV Agusta India, which is in the exclusive tie-up with MV Agusta to sell its premium bikes in India.
