Back in 1979, Mercedes introduced a stripped-down, rugged SUV, built to survive anything nature could throw at it. It was called the Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen, or G-Wagen for short. In the subsequent 40 years, it’s been used by various militaries around the world, ferried sheep around Swiss fields, and more recently become a status symbol for the rich and famous.
The latest model may look familiar but in fact, it has an all-new body, chassis, suspension, steering, engine, gearbox and driver aids, transforming the G-Class’s comfort and driving characteristics while retaining its historic off-road ability.
