No one asked for it, we have always loved it as it was, precisely because it has always been faithful to its unmistakable square line and dedicated to an extreme off-road usability. Over the years, since 1979, the G-Class has not really tamed itself, but has been able to offer better comfort and even stunning performance, with the models signed by the AMG department (not forgetting the recent 6X6 and 4X4 Squared). But it was time for an update and be ready to face the 21st century, so between the general fear of losing its identity, Mercedes has reassured his faithful followers, presenting a new model, which does not upset that ingredient to which we could not really say goodbye: its look.
121mm larger and 53mm longer, it has been made more harmonious, thanks to a better integration of the bumpers and a further incorporation of the current stylistic features of the three-pointed star. The front grille still is the main feature with the three horizontal chromed profiles on the sides of the wide logo of the company, while the cockpit has been made an even more refined and welcoming place, despite the fact that it maintains analogical gauges. An even better off-road capability is here too, thanks to the use of 3 locking differentials able to take charge of the four-wheel traction, while 5 different driving modes are available, as well as guaranteeing the ideal displacement according to of the ground under the wheels, while modifying steering, gearbox, throttle and suspension. The G-Class, although dated 2019, will arrive this summer with prices starting at around € 107,040 and will offer a range of diesel and petrol engines. The icon is back!
