Mercedes in Andorra: Registration and Tax Savings 2026
Brand · Mercedes-Benz
GLE 63 AMG, G 63, Maybach, AMG GT: everything you need to know to register a Mercedes-Benz at Cotxes Andorra in 2026.
Mercedes-Benz is, by cumulative volume, the most-registered brand in Andorra in 2025-2026, ahead of BMW and Porsche. The brand’s strength in the Principality rests on three pillars: the AMG range (GLE 53/63, G 63, S 63 e Performance, AMG GT), an integrated official dealership (Cotxes Andorra), and an Andorran tax environment that produces especially significant net savings on high-price models.
Why Mercedes Leads the Andorran Mix
Three factors converge. First, the range: SUVs (GLE, GLS, G-Class, EQS SUV) and AMG saloons match the Principality’s buyer profile precisely — entrepreneurs, liberal professionals, companies with vehicles in use. Second, the network: Cotxes Andorra, in Escaldes-Engordany, combines official Mercedes-Benz and AMG dealership status with physical stock and an approved workshop. Third, the tax framework: on V8 AMG models (GLE 63 S, S 63, AMG GT 63), where the Spanish registration tax is at its maximum rate, the cumulative Andorra/Spain differential can exceed 65,000 EUR on a single vehicle.
Most-Registered Mercedes-Benz Models in Andorra
Mercedes GLE 53 AMG / GLE 63 S AMG
The GLE AMG is the most-registered Mercedes model in the Principality in 2026, with approximately 410 cumulative registrations across 53 and 63 S trims. The 53 AMG (435 hp, 105,000 EUR) attracts private residents; the 63 S (612 hp, 175,000 EUR) is favoured by companies with genuine economic activity.
Mercedes-AMG G 63
Mercedes’ definitive SUV icon (585 hp, 215,000 EUR) remains the most visible embodiment of Andorran tax optimisation. Estimated volume: 90 registrations in 2025. One notable factor: the G 63 allocation waiting list means that an Andorran-resident buyer with a track record at Cotxes Andorra gains priority access to certain Manufaktur colours.
Mercedes-Maybach S 580 / GLS 600
The Maybach ultra-luxury segment is growing strongly: the GLS 600 (average price 220,000 EUR) and S 580 (170,000 EUR) together account for approximately 50 registrations in 2025.
Mercedes-AMG GT 63 4-Door / SL 63
In the GT segment, the AMG GT 63 4-Door Coupe (200,000 EUR) holds its position ahead of the SL 63 (175,000 EUR). Estimated cumulative volume: 35 registrations in 2025. Dealership lead time: 6 to 9 months.
Mercedes EQS and EQS SUV
On the electric side, the EQS 580 and EQS SUV 580 reflect the Principality’s growing electric share. Volume is modest (15-20 cumulative registrations in 2025).

Mercedes-Benz Dealership in Andorra and Logistics
Cotxes Andorra, in Escaldes-Engordany, is the official Mercedes-Benz and AMG dealership in the Principality. Under the same structure it also distributes Maserati and Lamborghini, making it the luxury hub of the Andorran market. Physical stock is visible on most days across GLE AMG, G-Class and S-Class. 2026 lead times: 4 to 6 months for the standard AMG range, 6 to 12 months for the G 63 and Maybach GLS 600 depending on the Manufaktur colour.
Buyers from France or Spain can purchase through a Mercedes dealership in their home country with covered transfer to Andorra, but the Cotxes Andorra route remains the most efficient for private residents.
Mercedes Contractual Specifics
On the G-Class and Maybach, Mercedes operates an allocation system based on customer history. A first-time buyer can wait 12 to 18 months for a G 63 in the desired Manufaktur colour. There is no formal resale restriction, though an early resale can block access to future premium allocations.
