MERCEDES G CLASS
Around since 1979, this new Mercedes G
Class SUV is one that most closely resembles
what most think an SUV should look like:
square, authoritative, and strong. But it still
keeps its gentler, luxurious side intact. e G
Class includes a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged
V8 sending its 416 hp and 450 lb-ft of torque
through a nine-speed automatic transmission
and allows the driver to switch from a solid axle
in front to an independent suspension.
e new G-Class is even sportier with new
LED headlights, a restyled grille, and front
bumper, and a longer hood that past models.
e interior includes two different dash
designs, with one maintaining the actual
gauges for the driver and the other E-Class
digital dash with its long screen and virtual
instrument cluster.
