Model strengths:
Extreme off-road ability;
rugged good looks; luxurious interior; far better on-road than its predecessor
Model changes:
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has
been an icon since the late 70's. With its utilitarian looks and boxy
proportions, it was originally designed as military vehicle. With the SUV boom
in the 90's, Mercedes-Benz gave it a refresh, adding a luxurious interior and a
range of powerful engines to make them more suitable to modern roads. However,
their suspension and looks barely changed from those original and humble
military origins and as a result, its on-road manners were barely acceptable by
modern standards. That's all changed now, as Mercedes have given the G-Class is
first major overhaul since being sold to the public in the United States. The
new G-Class gets modern suspension, (slightly) more aerodynamic styling and a
improved interior with more room than ever before. In short,
Mercedes-Benz has thoroughly modernized the vehicle, all the while being very
careful not to ruin the essence that people loved about them in the first
place.
Model value:
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class sits
atop the Mercedes' SUV lineup with a starting price just short of $125,000. Pricey as that may
sound, the G-Class earns that price for being both a styling icon and the most
serious off-road vehicle available. The newly redesigned G-Class no longer
sacrifices truck-like on-road handling, noise at highway speeds, and a purely
utilitarian interior layout. The 2019 G-Class still gives owners all of the
looks and off-roading ability of the original, but with all the modernity to the
mix.

The Mercedes G-Class comes in
three different trim levels to match their engines. The G550 is powered by a
4.0L twin-turbo V8 making 416 horsepower which it sends to all-four wheels via
brand new 9-speed automatic transmission, a first for the G-Class. This
combination is enough to get the G-Class to 60 mph in just 5.6 seconds, making
the boxy SUV incredibly and surprisingly quick. For those wanting comical
levels of power, Mercedes has owners covered and then some. The AMG G63 has a
bigger, 5.5L V8 twin-turbo engine making 563 horsepower, while the top-of-line
AMG G65 gets a 6.0L V12 with twin turbos making 621 horsepower. With all that
torque, Mercedes had to make do with a more robust 7-speed automatic, though
power is once again sent to all four wheels.
Standard features on the G550 are abundant: 19-inch
wheels, LED daytime running lights, adaptive LED headlights, keyless start,
rain sensing wipers, leather seating surfaces, power heated front seats, heated
rear seats, a power sliding sunroof, 3-zone climate control, an electrically
heated windshield, heated mirrors, a 12.3-inch screen with Mercedes' COMAND
system and navigation, hands-free Bluetooth connectivity, a Burmester surround
sound system, and Apple CarPlay. Being a fully modern vehicle, the G550 also
comes standard with a blind spot assist system, active lane keeping assist
systems, park distance control, PRE-SAFE pre-collision system, a rearview
camera, rear cross traffic alert, an active parking assistant, Trailer
Stability assist (and a trailer hitch) as well as a start/stop system to save a
little on fuel.
In order to upstage its less powerful sibling, the two AMG models come
standard with a choice of various Napa leather interiors, one of several
premium wood interior trims, 10-way power adjustable front seats with heating
and venting, a bigger, Harman/Kardon LOGIC7 sound system, voice activated
controls, bi-xenon headlights and 20-inch wheels.
